AnnotationThis guest editorial reviews the development of social security in the US, in the light of Brian Grattan's article, `The politics of dependency estimates: Social Security Board statistics, 1935-1939'. His findings of a link between research and politics should not surprise us, rather they should enable us think about larger and continuing patterns in the politics of statistics. (RH).
