Law Enforcement Agencies As Multiproduct Firms: Correcting Some Misconceptions, John Heineke, M. N. Darrough

Economics

The comment by Pyle and Deadman [PD] on our paper deals with several points which arise regularly in empirical applications of economic theory and especially in applications in which "firms" do not operate in traditional market places. Their first point concerns the appropriate definition of output in law enforcement agencies: Is the final output deterrence of future crimes, solving existing crimes, both, or something else? PD argue that deterrence {crime prevention) is the primary output of law enforcement agencies, and from society's perspective, this is undoubtedly true. But as we attempted to make clear in our paper, we were interested …

The "Guestworker" As Metaphor: In Clarification Of Social Economic Contradictions And Systemic Crisis., Stephen I. Woods

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

In May 1979 the French National Assembly passed legislation giving the government sweeping powers to expel foreign workers. Yet neither the government nor the employers really want to send most of the immigrant workers home, and thereby lose them as a source of cheap labor for both public and private enterprise. It is likely that the employers hope to use the new legislation to keep foreign workers in a state of permanent insecurity, to discourage them from protesting against their low pay, poor working conditions and the racism they encounter daily. Indeed, employers would like to see foreign workers treated …

Western Water Market Sophistication, John C. Tysseling

Economics ETDs

Throughout the development of the western regions of the United States there has always been concern over the availability and access to sources of water supplies. These water supplies have now been brought to a condition of full appropriation and with this condition markets have developed in which these water resources may be transferred between uses and users. With the increasing development of the region's energy and other natural resources, the role which these water markets play in the allocation of this most vital resource to any of these forms of development can be anticipated to expand. An instrument was …
