Historiography, Causality, And Positioning: An Unsystematic View Of Accounting History, David Oldroyd
Historiography, Causality, And Positioning: An Unsystematic View Of Accounting History, David Oldroyd
Accounting Historians Journal
The article reviews recent developments in accounting historiography in relation to the underlying positioning of the participants. It finds that accounting history has located itself within the tradition of social science, which subsumes events into generalizations and generalizations into theory. It reviews the efficacy of causal theories of human behavior and proposes an alternative non-theoretical approach.
Labor's Changing Responses To Management Rhetorics: A Study Of Accounting-Based Incentive Plans During The First Half Of The 20th Century, Leslie S. Oakes, Mark A. Covaleski, Mark William Dirsmith
Labor's Changing Responses To Management Rhetorics: A Study Of Accounting-Based Incentive Plans During The First Half Of The 20th Century, Leslie S. Oakes, Mark A. Covaleski, Mark William Dirsmith
Accounting Historians Journal
This study compares organized labor's reactions to changing management rhetorics as these rhetorics surrounded accounting-based incentive plans, including profit sharing. Results suggest that labor's perceptions of profit sharing changed dramatically from the 1900-1930 period to post-World War II. The shift, in turn, prompts an exploration of two research questions: (1) how and why did the national labor discourse around the management rhetoric and its emphasis on accounting information change, and (2) how did this change render unions more governable in their support for accounting-based incentive plans?

Agricultural Concentration: An Analysis By Commodity, Don E. Albrecht
Agricultural Concentration: An Analysis By Commodity, Don E. Albrecht
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
One of the most striking consequences of the industrialization of agriculture in the United States is the extent to which production is becoming increasingly concentrated on a relatively few farms. In this study, a human ecological perspective and nationwide census data at the county level from 1982, 1987, and 1992 were used to explore concentration in the dairy, hog, and beef cattle industries. Wide differences were found in the extent of concentration from commodity to commodity and from county to county. It was found that in counties where the production of one commodity is highly concentrated, the production of other …

Geographic Information Systems: A Tool For Rural Community Research, Sarah Dewees, Timothy Collins
Geographic Information Systems: A Tool For Rural Community Research, Sarah Dewees, Timothy Collins
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
Because of their traditional application in the environmental and geological sciences, geographic information systems are not usually considered to be useful tools for rural community research or analysis. The 1990 census made socio-economic data available at the block-group level, however, and this has facilitated the mapping of socio-economic variables in small areas. Insight, explanation, and understanding can come from seeing data in their spatial context. Citizen researchers in the Jackson County, KY, Empowerment Zone used block-group level data in maps of their county to study socio-economic patterns in their communities. This paper provides an example of a way to use …
Violence Prevention In Georgia's Rural Public Schools: Perceptions Of School Superintendents, Chet Ballard
Violence Prevention In Georgia's Rural Public Schools: Perceptions Of School Superintendents, Chet Ballard
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
A survey of school superintendents in 81 public school systems in rural Georgia was conducted to describe strategies being pursued to prevent school violence and promote a safe and disciplined learning environment. Among the surveyed superintendents, there was widespread recognition of school safety as a high priority item and evidence of use of law enforcement and technology to deter violence in schools. Descriptive data analysis suggests that school size and county economic conditions relate to school superintendents’ assessment of school safety and potential for violence. This research addresses a void in the literature on violence in rural schools and provides …
The Challenge Of Welfare Reform: Earnings And The Cost Of Living In Rural Kentucky, Julie N. Zimmerman, Lorraine Garkovich
The Challenge Of Welfare Reform: Earnings And The Cost Of Living In Rural Kentucky, Julie N. Zimmerman, Lorraine Garkovich
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
The passage in 1996 of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunities Act may well mark the single most consequential social legislation of this decade, especially for rural southern families, for it marked a fundamental shift in the welfare system in the U.S. No longer focused on hardship relief, cash assistance now has a work-first focus, with mandatory work requirements and lifetime limits for recipients. Underlying this legislation have been four assumptions about the nature of the labor market and welfare recipients' characteristics and opportunities. This article examines the utility of these assumptions, especially in the context of the regional and …
Perceived Barriers To Labor Force Participation Among Welfare Recipients In West Virginia, Melissa Latimer
Perceived Barriers To Labor Force Participation Among Welfare Recipients In West Virginia, Melissa Latimer
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
This research utilizes data collected by the Children's Policy Institute (CPI) of West Virginia in 1993 to identify perceived barriers to labor force participation for families with children receiving AFDC and/or Food Stamps. By merging data on West Virginia from several county-level data sources with the CPI data, this multi-level research identifies the major barriers West Virginia welfare recipients perceive as limiting their labor force participation (i.e., as explaining their current unemployment status). This research also examines how the barriers identified vary among welfare recipients.
