The Material Conditions For Microenterprise In The United States And The Third World, Mark Schreiner

Center for Social Development Research

Sparked by a few successful microenterprise programs in the third world, community-development organizations in the United States have started hundreds of microenterprise programs. Can they be as successful in the United States as in the third world? This paper concludes that microenterprise in the United States is probably more difficult than in the third world. For example, the U.S. microenterprise sector is smaller and more complex because most people can get wage jobs and because of the public safety net. Unlike third-world programs, U.S. programs must do more than make loans. Microentrepreneurs need savings more than debt, and while some …

Employment Discrimination, Peter Reed Corbin, John E. Duvall

The 1999 survey period was another active year for employment discrimination litigation in the Eleventh Circuit and before the United States Supreme Court.

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

Law And The Biology Of Rape: Reflections On Transitions, Owen D. Jones

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

This Article serves is a sequel to a previous Article: Sex, Culture, and the Biology of Rape: Toward Explanation and Prevention, 87 Cal. L. Rev. 827 (1999). Part I briefly considers the threshold question: why consider the behavioral biology of sexual aggression at all? Part II proposes that the first step in transitioning to a more accurate and more useful model of rape behavior is to avoid a number of common definitional ambiguities that plague most rape discussions. Because those ambiguities are particularly likely to foster misunderstandings about biobehavioral perspectives, Part II also clarifies the scope of what biobehavioral theories …

Dialectics Of Control : The Origins And Evolution Of Conflict In Portland's Neighborhood Association Program, Matthew Witt

Dissertations and Theses

In 1974, the City of Portland established, by city ordinance, the Office of Neighborhood Associations (ONA). This ordinance also codified a set of commitments the City would make to involve citizens in local decision making pertaining to a wide variety of issues, from land use development policies to various service allocations.

This dissertation chronicles changes that have occurred in Portland's Neighborhood Association program over a roughly 24-year period, spanning 1974–1998. A …

From The Psychiatric Hospital To The Community: Integrating Conditional Release And Contingency Management, Eric B. Elbogen, Alan Tomkins

Alan Tomkins Publications

Psychiatric hospital recidivism has been and continues to be a persistent problem in treating individuals with chronic mental illness. Conditional release, a form of involuntary outpatient commitment, has been suggested as one possible solution. Guided by therapeutic jurisprudence, this article presents a proposal about conditional release that would maximize convergence of social values and would be empirically testable. Specifically, a scientifically validated treatment intervention for individuals with chronic mental illness, contingency management, is integrated with conditional release. From this proposal, a number of empirical hypotheses and legal questions about discharging psychiatric patients are generated and discussed.
