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 …
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.

Feminism And The Major Female Characters Of Exodus, Scott Ashmon
Feminism And The Major Female Characters Of Exodus, Scott Ashmon
Master of Sacred Theology Thesis
The scope of this thesis is feminist interpretations of the major female characters of Exodus: Shiphrah, Puah, Moses’ mother (Jochebed), Moses’ sister, Pharaoh’s daughter, Miriam, and Zipporah. I will demonstrate that feminists interpret the major female characters of Exodus in three general ways. First, some feminists interpret the major female characters of Exodus in proper contextual, grammatical fashion and end up with a more accurate portrayal of the women. For this thesis, the term “exegetical” will be the shorthand term for this type of interpretation. Second, other feminists interpret the major female characters in exegetical fashion, but then exaggerate the …

Ketentuan Blanket Guarantee Dan Kemungkinan Penggantiannya Dengan Deposit Protection Scheme, Kusumaningtuti Kusumaningtuti
Ketentuan Blanket Guarantee Dan Kemungkinan Penggantiannya Dengan Deposit Protection Scheme, Kusumaningtuti Kusumaningtuti
Bulletin of Monetary Economics and Banking
Blanket Guarantee atau di Indonesia disebut Program Penjaminan diberlakukan secara reaktif oleh Pemerintah guna menghentikan pelarian simpanan yang sistemik dari perbankan dan memulihkan kepercayaan kepada perbankan, sehingga kemudian menjadi basis untuk upaya membangun kembali sektor perbankan. Pelaksanaan blanket guarantee sering rancu dengan pelaksanaan fungsi lender of the last resort khususnya apabila kedua fungsi tersebut disatukan atau dilakukan oleh bank sentral seperti di Indonesia.Tulisan ini dimaksudkan untuk menganalis pemberlakuan blanket guarantee di Indonesia berdasarkan pada pengalaman penerapan di negara-negara lain, termasuk implikasi positif dan negatif. Sifat pemberlakuan yang sementara, diikuti dengan rencana penggantiannya dengan Deposit protection scheme atau skim perlindungan simpanan. …
Evaluasi Program Intervensi Dalam Rangka Stabilisasi Nilai Tukar, Rasmo Samiun
Evaluasi Program Intervensi Dalam Rangka Stabilisasi Nilai Tukar, Rasmo Samiun
Bulletin of Monetary Economics and Banking
Tujuan dari paper ini mengevaluasi kegiatan intervensi yang dilakukan Bank Indonesia selama satu tahun. Ada 3 (tiga) masalah pokok yang dibahas dalam paper ini , yaitu efektivitas intervensi, konsistensi kebijakan nilai tukar serta kendala-kendala pelaksanaan intervensi. Hasil evaluasi menyimpulkan bahwa efektivitas suatu operasi intervensi sangat ditentukan oleh beberapa faktor seperti kemampuan menilai titik keseimbangan sejati nilai tukar yang mencerminkan kondisi fundamental ekonomi. Faktor lain yang cukup besar pengaruhnya adalah kemampuan menilai sentimen pasar (faktor psikologis) yang sedang terjadi diantara pelaku pasar. Pada sisi yang lain, dalam kebijakan operasional yang berkaitan dengan nilai tukar yang tepat, Bank Indonesia harus menghindarkan adanya …

Analisis Efisiensi Pasar Valuta Asing Di Lima Negara Asia Menggunakan Uji Kointegrasi, Hariyadi Ramelan
Bulletin of Monetary Economics and Banking
Adanya krisis mata uang di beberapa negara Asia (Singapore, Korea, Malaysia, Thailand dan Indonesia), yang selama ini dikenal sebagai “Macan Asia”, telah menimbulkan konsekuensi pada penurunan yang signifikan dalam kinerja perekonomian negara-negara tersebut. Di pasar valuta asing, proses depresiasi yang berlebihan dari mata uang regional seperti Rupiah dan Ringgit Malaysia terhadap mata uang utama (US Dollar) telah menimbulkan efek penularan yang berimplikasi pada semakin rentannya sistem finansial di beberapa wilayah Asia. Kondisi ini juga melahirkan fenomena bagi pelaku pasar yakni apakah krisis Asia merupakan pencerminan dari adanya inefisiensi di pasar valuta asing.Tujuan dari paper ini menganalisis keberadaan pasar valas yang …

The Shareholder Primacy Norm, D. Gordon Smith
The Shareholder Primacy Norm, D. Gordon Smith
Faculty Scholarship
Corporate directors have a fiduciary duty to make decisions in the best interests of the shareholders. This aspect of fiduciary duty is often called the shareholder primacy norm. Legal scholars generally assume that the shareholder primacy norm is a major factor considered by boards of directors of publicly traded corporations in making ordinary business decisions and that changing the shareholder primacy norm would have an effect on the substance of those decisions. This Article challenges this view and argues that the shareholder primacy norm was never equipped to mediate conflicts between shareholders and nonshareholder constituencies of a corporation. The origins …

Drosophila Fascin Mutants Are Rescued By Overexpression Of The Villin-Like Protein, Quail, Kelly Cant, Brenda A. Knowles, Shalina Mahajan-Miklos, Matthew Heintzelman, Lynn Cooley
Dartmouth Scholarship
Actin bundle assembly in specialized structures such as microvilli on intestinal epithelia and Drosophila bristles requires two actin bundling proteins. In these systems, the distinct biochemical properties and temporal localization of actin bundling proteins suggest that these proteins are not redundant. During Drosophila oogenesis, the formation of cytoplasmic actin bundles in nurse cells requires two actin bundling proteins, fascin encoded by the singed gene and a villin-like protein encoded by the quail gene. singed and quail mutations are fully recessive and each mutation disrupts nurse cell cytoplasmic actin bundle formation. We used P-element mediated germline transformation to overexpress quail in …

An Ab Initio Study Of The Mono- And Difluorides Of Krypton, Gerald J. Hoffman, Laura A. Swafford '97, Robert J. Cave
All HMC Faculty Publications and Research
Results from ab initio calculations at the CCSD(T) level of theory are presented for krypton monofluoride (KrF), krypton monofluoride cation (KrF+), linear, ground-state krypton difluoride (KrF2), the triplet state of krypton difluoride, and the krypton–fluorine van der Waals complex (Kr–F2). These are the first calculations demonstrating that KrF is a bound molecule, in agreement with experimental observation. When corrected for basis-set superposition error, the calculated potential displays quantitative agreement with the attractive wall of the experimentally measured potential curve. Results are also presented for KrF+ and linear KrF2 which yield accurate values for their dissociation energies. The triplet state of …

Parent Influences On Adolescent Peer Orientation And Substance Use: The Interface Of Parenting Practices And Values, Karen Bogenschneider, Ming-Yeh Wu, Marcela Raffaelli, Jenner C. Tsay
Parent Influences On Adolescent Peer Orientation And Substance Use: The Interface Of Parenting Practices And Values, Karen Bogenschneider, Ming-Yeh Wu, Marcela Raffaelli, Jenner C. Tsay
Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications
This study examines how experiences in the family domain may magnify or mitigate experiences in the peer domain, and how processes in both milieus may influence adolescent substance use. The data derived from 666 European American mother-adolescent dyads and 510 European American father-adolescent dyads. Consistent with individuation-connectedness theory, mothers’ responsiveness lessened their adolescents’ orientation to peers, which, in turn, reduced adolescent substance use. This process was moderated by maternal values regarding adolescent alcohol use; that is, the relation of maternal responsiveness to adolescent substance use depended on the extent of maternal approval or disapproval of adolescent alcohol use. Among fathers, …
