Homeownership And Its Impacts: Implications For Housing Policy For Low-Income Families, Edward Scanlon
Center for Social Development Research
Homeownership for low-income families is becoming the housing policy of choice in the 1990’s. To what extent is this justified? What should the policy be? This paper concludes that homeownership policy for the poor may have positive effects, but the circumstances of poor households—especially neighborhood conditions and income instability—must be taken into account.

Unplanned Resistance: Turkish Immigrants In A Postmodern Germany, Peter O'Brien
Unplanned Resistance: Turkish Immigrants In A Postmodern Germany, Peter O'Brien
Political Science Faculty Research
Postmodernity would seem to bode ill for immigrant communities like the Turks living in Germany. Prominent theories of postmodern society, when analyzed in respect to the status of immigrants, pit several strikes against them. Taking as a given that Germany deserves the label "postmodern society," this essay discusses three such theories and draws out the implications of each for Turkish nationals residing in Germany. The findings are anything but merry. If the theories prove true, Turkish migrants from Turkey should expect little or no improvement in their lot and, worse, deterioration. This said, I refuse to conclude the essay on …
Capture And Counteraction: Self- Help By Environmental Zealots (Allen Chair Symposium 1996: The Future Of Environmental And Land-Use Regulation), James E. Krier
Capture And Counteraction: Self- Help By Environmental Zealots (Allen Chair Symposium 1996: The Future Of Environmental And Land-Use Regulation), James E. Krier

To me, the term refers to any act of bypassing the formal legal system in order to get what one wants.
A Feminist Exploration Of Issues Around Assisted Death, Jocelyn Downie, Susan Sherwin
A Feminist Exploration Of Issues Around Assisted Death, Jocelyn Downie, Susan Sherwin
Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press
Although a great deal of public attention has recently been focused on issues around assisted death remarkably little of it has come from an explicitly feminist perspective. This is a serious omission at a time when legislators are feeling pressure to review and perhaps revise existing policies on assisted death, and when the policies they contemplate may have a significant negative and disproportionate impact on women. We think it is essential that there be some discussion of these issues from an explicitly feminist perspective in order to ensure that concerns about the oppression of women become part of the public …
