Summary Annotation Levin-Waldman (economics, Bard College) traces the historical evolution of minimum-wage policy and explains how models are used and misused by different interests to achieve their particular aims. As organized labor has declined as a political force over the past 20 years, he argues, the debate has narrowed and focused on often highly technical discussion concerned with specific effect of a given specific increase, such as relieving poverty and youth unemployment.
