Beschreibung

In 1967, in response to demonstrations in cities across the US, the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders was formed. The Commission employed social scientists to research the root causes of the disturbances. This first publication of the committee's report reveals that many of the issues it describes are still with us.
