It's 8:55 a.m. on a bright Tuesday morning in September. Professor Richard Burkhauser is standing at the front of Call Auditorium in Kennedy Hall watching students file into Economics 1110: Introductory Microeconomics. For those who arrive early, the Bugs Bunny cartoon "The Rabbit of Seville" is playing on the main auditorium screen, a throw-back to cartoon previews that played at movie theaters during Burkhauser's childhood. The professor is dressed patriotically in a navy blue suit, a red-striped shirt, and a red tiefitting attire for the day's lecture, where he will make the case that low- and middle-income Americans have done better economically over the past 30 years than most people believe. On a side screen, there is a question asking students if they've registered with the course's web site. Everyone who enters class receives a clicker they can use to answer questions that Burkhauser poses. The professor uses the technology to take attendance in the 400-person class and also to engage the large class directly.

Whereas in other lands anti-imperialism was often closely identified with the political left and followed socialist or even Leninist models, and criticized the occupation and control of less-developed countries, American critiques of empire necessarily evolved differently because the United States did not have as strong a radical tradition and did not possess a formal empire in the European sense. Thus, anti-imperial ideas and actions have to be seen in a broader construction in which individuals or groups challenged the expansion of state hegemony , but did so based on the objective conditions of a particular time rather than on a doctrinaire antithetical to national values.

Skip to Navigation Governor talks about social issues View Comments (0) Undefined Governor talks about social issues By Matt Brett November 13, 1996 Print Article Email Article Download PDF Vermont Gov. Howard Dean addressed welfare reform, health care, and other social programs on the state level in a speech Wednesday at the Sanford Institute of Public Policy. Dean discussed how he successfully reformed the welfare system and guaranteed health insurance for children in Vermont, while balancing the state budget. As governor, Dean instituted the first welfare reform of any state in the nation. Based on the principle that everybody should be required to work, the Vermont reform requires one parent in a two-parent household to get a job within the first 15 months on welfare, and parents in single-parent families to have a job within 30 months on welfare. The state, however, does not cut all benefits if these deadlines are not met; only direct cash assistance is cut. All participants in the program are guaranteed a job, either in the private sector or in the non-profit sector. "I think the reforms are pro-family," Dean said. "If you do [welfare reform] right, you can make a big deal in people's lives." During his speech, Dean-a Democrat-said much of his success in office can be credited to ignoring partisan battles and concentrating on the practical.

The Republican Philosophy Lincoln's Ten Guidelines A Brief History of the Republican Party The Republican Party evolved during the 1850's when the issue of slavery forced divisions within the existing Whig and Democratic-Republican parties. Faced with political turmoil, a new party - dedicated to states rights and a restricted role of government in economic and social life - began making history. Alan Earl Bovay, one of the founders of the Republican Party, believed a new party should be formed to represent the interests of the North and the abolitionists. He decided to call that party "Republican" because it was a simple, yet significant word synonymous with equality. Thomas Jefferson had earlier chosen "Republican" to refer to his party, which gave the name respect borne of historical significance. Evidence indicates there were several groups across the country that met to discuss the formation of a new party. Thus, the location of the first meeting has been disputed. It is known that Whig Party defectors met privately in February, 1854, in Crawfordsville, Iowa, to call for the creation of a new political party. Some evidence indicates an earlier meeting was held in Exeter, New Hampshire. The first public meeting was held in March of 1854 at a small church in Ripon, Wisconsin, when Alan Bovay rallied anti-slavery forces and adopted resolutions opposing the Kansas-Nebraska Act.

Social Policy Research In The 1990’s: Where Were We? Quang DuongTran School of Social Work University of Hawaii at Manoa 1800 East-West Road, Henke Hall 104 Honolulu, Hawaii 96822 Evaon Wong-Kim School of Social Work University of Hawaii at Manoa 1800 East-West Road, Henke Hall 104 Honolulu, Hawaii 96822 Purpose The last decade of the 20th century witnessed a historical welfare reform, ambitious efforts to reform the nation’s health care, ignominious racial incident (Rodney King beating and ensued riot), and transformation in race relations (i.e. attacks on affirmative action and immigration). The objectives of this study were to examine the contribution of empirical research conducted by social work researchers on three prominent social policy areas: poverty and welfare reform, health care and health services, race relations and immigration. Methods We conducted two phases of the literature review between 1990 and 2000: (1) comprehensive search of the Social Work Abstracts bibliographic database using these keywords – poverty, welfare reform, health care, health services, race relations, immigration, and racism; (2) exhaustive content analysis of the empirical studies by methods, data types (e.g., archival, clinical, government- and private-sponsored databases), topical issues, and observed findings. Findings Preliminary findings show a dismal visibility of social work research in these highly prominent policy arenas. Despite a growing discourse and funding in health services research, only 81 publications out of 513 (or 16%) were empirical. Since 1996, 40 empirical studies on the impact of the Personal and Work Responsibility Act were in social work-related journals. This level of research commitment is minimal despite the sheer size, complexity, and impact of this national legislation.
