From the Paper:
"This review will examine and explain the major concepts, theories, and issues brought out in Boomerang, by Theda Skocpol. Skocpol tells the story of the failed Health Security effort of 1993-1994 and then uses that story as a frame to discuss the past and the future of American domestic politics.Skocpol considers the health care issue a pivotal one in Clinton's first term. The president launched his campaign for health care reform with a nationally televised speech on September 23, 1993. Experts agreed that some kind of health care reform package would eventually be passed. A year and a few days later, Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell officially recognized that the program was dead. Skocpol does not think the administration planners were "awesomely stupid" or excessively "liberal" (p. 18)."
