The year 1966 is often cited as the start of the “second wave” of the organized women's movement, marked by the formation of the National Organization for Women (NOW). However, 1966 also marked the formal inception of another, less enduring group of women activists, the National Welfare Rights Organization (NWRO), linked to a separate but related social movement focused on welfare rights. From 1966 to 1975, NWRO coordinated welfare mothers' activism to shore up public assistance for the poor and to establish a federally guaranteed annual income. At its height in 1968, NWRO claimed twenty thousand members nationwide and dozens of local chapters from California to New York.

This concept provides an integrated approach to the solution of the problems of social development, economic growth, innovation activities, technological progress and breakthroughs, as well as of the application of the specific managerial tools and instruments based on the ideas of creativity and creative changes. Implementation of this concept in the practice of the social and economic activities, research and academic studies creates various preconditions for anticipation and realization of new opportunities for social and economic development and technological breakthroughs under contemporary conditions of globalization, European integration and the creation of knowledge-based society. Research limitations – the proposed concept is limited to the cases of the research on general tendencies and the development processes of the society, as well as to the cases of the macroeconomic analysis and preparation of the strategic decisions for social, economic, political and technological development.

The practices of political sovereignty, such as nation building, and the achievement of a stable economy through practices of economic sovereignty are intimately intertwined— and the role of small-business diversity in creating this economic stability can be indispensable. Consequently, these relationships and the situational interdependence of government-owned corporations (e.g., gaming) and privately owned small businesses, especially in the case of the EBCI, are vital to supporting the practices of both political and economic sovereignty, especially when countering the effects of the US governments’ economic hegemony. Drawing on the economic anthropology literature helps to complicate notions of “per caps” (dividends) operating as universal basic income and guaranteed annual income on the national level while also expanding notions of entrepreneurial impacts, such as in the realm of cultural reclamation.
