MANDATE FROM THE PEOPLE by Jerome S. Bruner

MANDATE FROM THE PEOPLE

By

Publisher: Duell, Sloan & Pearce

Based on the findings of eight public opinion polling agencies, this is a catalogue of public opinion, what the people think --what the people want-, and as such it is a ""mandate from the people"" as to what the people should get. America and the war, as she progressed from isolationism to internationalism; America and the post war, and her desire to participate; trade, reconstruction, reparations: the sentiment towards Britain and the dubious faith in Russia; what to do with Germany; the home front, social security employment, controls, planning -- all wanted; the case of the returning soldier. Documentary evidence which is absorbing, and encouraging.
