Demand For Environmental Quality: Evidence On Drinking Waterfrom Kathmandu, Nepal, Hari Katuwal, Alok Bohara
Demand For Environmental Quality: Evidence On Drinking Waterfrom Kathmandu, Nepal, Hari Katuwal, Alok Bohara
Himalayan Policy Research Conference
This paper examines the demand for environmental quality - clean drinking water in particular - in Kathmandu, Nepal. Water supply is inadequate, unreliable, low quality and not directly potable. Residents engage in several strategies to cope with unreliable and low quality water supplies. Some of the major strategies are: hauling, storing, boiling and filtering. A Report on the Water Survey of Kathmandu Valley 2005 suggested that over 45 per cent of households filter water to make it potable, while about 39 per cent of households boil water. Use of Uro Guard and the Solar Disinfection System (SODIS) are other purification …

"While preparing for today I discovered that I had already used the 'F' word in a panel presentation at Sarah Lawrence College almost 15 years ago. This was something I had completely forgotten. But that time I was questioning feminism itself: what’s wrong with the 'F' word?"

Public Opinion And The Introduction Of Congressional Environmental Legislation, 1973-2002, Hugh Eugene Jarvis
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
This study examines the relationship between public opinion about the environment and the introduction of congressional legislation on environmental issues. Using public opinion data gathered by the General Social Survey from 1977 to 2002, this work examines correlations between how the public views the environment in each and the number of bills introduced in the U.S. House and Senate addressing environmental issues. The findings indicate that there is a correlation between overall concern felt in the public and congressional action on certain aspects of environmental protection. The results also highlight the potentially disturbing finding that the race and economic class …

Religion, Politics, And The Environment In Rural America, Michele Dillon, Megan M. Henly
Carsey Publications
Reflecting the heterogeneous nature of rural America, rural Americans are divided primarily along religious lines on their perspectives of environmental conservation and climate change. And as rural voters and environmental issues become key issues in the upcoming presidential election, this religious divide presents a challenge to political candidates.

Skating With Donovan: Thoughts On Librarianship As A Profession, Richard A. Danner
Skating With Donovan: Thoughts On Librarianship As A Profession, Richard A. Danner
Faculty Scholarship
James M. Donovan’s article: Skating on Thin Intermediation: Can Libraries Survive?, 27 Legal Reference Services Q. 95 (no. 2-3, 2008) argues that librarians place more emphasis than they might on providing service to library users at a time when information seekers are relying less on intermediaries, and that over-emphasizing service to the detriment of other values diminishes the status of librarianship as a profession. The article presents two contrasting models of librarianship. This article discusses Donovan’s models and comments on the continuing importance of the service model to librarianship.

Rural Poverty Analysis: A Case Study Of A District Of Nepal, Uddhab Bhandary
Himalayan Research Papers Archive
In the developing countries, decision makers face difficulty in allocating development resource at the local level due to the unavailability of an objective method that justifies the allocation. Poverty measurement methods, such as consumption based poverty measurement or Human Development Index could be used for the process, but those techniques are difficult to apply at the local level because of the constraint of resource. Therefore, a simple technique to categorize villages in terms of their development levels is always desired. This research is an attempt to address this problem. It has used socioeconomic and natural aspects to categorize villages in …

But Is It Research?: A Review Of Patricia Leavy’S Method Meets Art: Arts-Based Research Practice, Ronald J. Chenail
The Qualitative Report
Patricia Leavy’s new book helps to address the gap for an introductory text for those interested in learning more about arts-based research and other approaches to artistic qualitative research. It may also help to address those researchers and editors who, when seeing an arts-based research report or presentation, ask "but is it research?"

Nebraska’S Immigrant Population: Economic And Fiscal Impacts - Ollas Report No. 5, Christopher Decker, Jerry Deichert, Lourdes Gouveia
Nebraska’S Immigrant Population: Economic And Fiscal Impacts - Ollas Report No. 5, Christopher Decker, Jerry Deichert, Lourdes Gouveia
Latino/Latin American Studies Reports
Immigration issues have once again assumed center stage in policy circles at every level of government in the United States, as the number of new immigrants, many undocumented and many from Latin American nations, has risen markedly in recent years. This is certainly true in Nebraska. According to US Census figures for 2000, the total immigrant population in Nebraska was estimated to be 74,638. By 2006, this figure had risen to 99,500, a 33.3 percent increase. By comparison, the total native-born population in the state grew less than 2.0 percent over the same six-year period.
This study attempts to quantitatively …

Community Interactive Processes And Rural Adolescents’ Educational Achievement: Investigating The Mediating Effects Of Delinquency And Self-Esteem, Omolola Adedokun, Mark Balschweid
Journal of Youth Development
The study reported in this paper examines the effects of community interactive processes on rural adolescents’ educational achievement. Specifically, the paper explored the direct effects of community interactive processes on rural adolescents’ educational achievement and the indirect effects via self-esteem and delinquency. The method of structural equation modeling was used to analyze data from a nationally representative panel study of rural adolescent boys and girls in 10th grade through 12th grade. The results make a compelling case that communities are conduits for boosting self-esteem, facilitating normative behaviors and academic performance in rural adolescents.
