Nonlethal Weapons: A British Review, Robert J. Bunker
Nonlethal Weapons: A British Review, Robert J. Bunker
CGU Faculty Publications and Research
Hundreds of documents and articles have been published about nonlethal weapons (NLW) since the 1960s. However, few books had been published on the subject. As NLW significance becomes more recognized for the operational advantages they provide in the Western urban and "failed-state" settings, more books are appearing. Malcolm Dando's book A New Form of Warfare: The Rise of Nonlethal Weapons and Nick Lewer and Steven Schofield's book Nonlethal Weapons: A Fatal Attraction? Military Strategies and Technologies for 21st-Century Conflict are two of the first books to appear. All three authors are academics with ties to the fields of peace studies …
Consistent Estimation Of Faculty Rank Effects In Academic Salary Models, James G. Strathman
Consistent Estimation Of Faculty Rank Effects In Academic Salary Models, James G. Strathman
Center for Urban Studies Publications and Reports
Faculty rank is often included as an explanatory variable in academic salary models. Because there is reason to believe that this results in specification bias, rank effects should be estimated endogenously in salary models. A salary model in which faculty rank is endogenous is estimated in this paper and the results are compared with those obtained from a conventionally specified alternative.

Book Review: To End A War, Rory J. Conces
Book Review: To End A War, Rory J. Conces
Philosophy Faculty Publications
If asked to name career diplomats who have tackled some very difficult international crises, many foreign policy makers would put Richard Holbrooke near the top of the list. Not many negotiators have wielded moral principle, power, and reason as well as Holbrooke. His book on the Bosnia negotiations leading up to the 1995 Dayton Peace Agreement is timely, given the ethnic cleansing that is being carried out in Kosovo, a southern province of Yugoslavia's Serb Republic. Once again we are faced with unrest in the Balkans. We have seen the daily newspaper headlines change from "24 Albanian Men Killed in …
The Nature Of Optimal Public Policy, Lok Sang Ho
The Nature Of Optimal Public Policy, Lok Sang Ho
Centre for Public Policy Studies : CPPS Working Paper Series
The design of public policy must take human nature as an immutable constraint, both with a view to choosing the appropriate policy objectives and in regard to the human response and hence the effects of the policy. Once human nature is seen in the proper light and the multiple needs of society are recognized, it is not difficult to see the logic of a hierarchy of policy objectives with some being treated as tentative constraints and others as “maximands." Optimal public policy making in the short term would treat those constraints as given but over the longer term the constraints …
Urbanization In Sha Tin And Tuen Mun : Problems And Coping Strategies, Hong Kin Kwok, Shing Tak Chan
Urbanization In Sha Tin And Tuen Mun : Problems And Coping Strategies, Hong Kin Kwok, Shing Tak Chan
Centre for Public Policy Studies : CPPS Working Paper Series
This paper examines the urbanization experiences in two communities of Hong Kong, namely, Sha Tin and Tuen Mun. Owing to the comparative locations and infrastructure concerned, the development of Sha Tin is much faster and more effective than that of Tuen Mun. In this paper, governmental new town development planning, resident population change, internal migration, class and family composition, labour force participation as well as the pull-push factors in implementation of housing policies and in shifting of supporting networks will be discussed.

HIV and AIDS
The Community Counseling Aides (CCA) project operating with support from the National AIDS Control Programme (NACP) in Uganda, is a government initiative being carried out in collaboration with local communities. As the Ministry of Health seeks to develop local capacity to support and operate these efforts at the community level, it has identified the need to improve the skills of local project staff so that they may begin to assume the responsibility for monitoring and evaluating their own program performance. This is part of an overall strategy on the part of the Ugandan Government to decentralize control and allocation of …

1996 Welfare Reform: Effects On Single-Parent Families In Rural Minnesota, Philip M. Kern
1996 Welfare Reform: Effects On Single-Parent Families In Rural Minnesota, Philip M. Kern
Honors Theses, 1963-2015
In 1996, historic legislation redirected and changed our national system of welfare, a structure that had been in place for over 60 years. Despite minor tinkering in various years since the 1960s, the distribution of welfare in this country for the most part has fallen under the same guidelines since its creation. However, the recent changes, at both the national and state levels, will have a profound impact on the lives of the most disadvantaged Americans. In this thesis, I will explain the 1996 national and state welfare reform laws and how they fail to provide the necessary solutions for …

Can Internet Offerings Bridge The Small Business Capital Barrier?, Jill E. Fisch
Can Internet Offerings Bridge The Small Business Capital Barrier?, Jill E. Fisch
All Faculty Scholarship
Internet technology offers the potential to reduce the search and information costs associated with capital formation. Commentators have suggested that the Web will enable small business to achieve better access to the capital markets. To facilitate this access, they have suggested regulatory reforms to make internet offerings cheaper and easier. At the same time, small business offerings have been identified as among the most risky, offering a caution to those who counsel regulatory reform. This article examines the existing regulatory climate. State and federal regulators have adopted a number of recent reforms to facilitate the use of the internet and …

New Conundrums: Public Policy And The Emerging Health Care Marketplace, James R. Tallon
Center for Policy Research
There is a fundamentally new dynamic in American health care, one that has yet to be fully experienced but that threatens to leave a large portion of the American population without access to the quality health care they have received in the past. While the federal government has not completely abandoned the goal of assuring universal health care, a goal that dates back to the creation of Medicare and Medicaid in the 1960s and even earlier, the mechanisms to pursue that goal have changed. The implicit contract between government and health care providers--mostly doctors and not-for-profit hospitals--under which subsidized care …

The End Of Secrecy, Ann Florini
The End Of Secrecy, Ann Florini
Research Collection School of Social Sciences
Two standards of behavior are slugging it out around the world. Advocates of well-established norms such as corporate privacy and national sovereignty want to hide information from prying eyes, while promoters of transparency tout it as the solution to everything from international financial crises to arms races and street crime. Just what is transparency? Put simply, transparency is the opposite of secrecy. Secrecy means deliberately hiding your actions; transparency means deliberately revealing them. This element of volition makes the growing acceptance of transparency much more than a resigned surrender to the technologically facilitated intrusiveness of the Information Age. Transparency is …
Rights And Efficiency In American Health Law, Maxwell Gregg Bloche
Rights And Efficiency In American Health Law, Maxwell Gregg Bloche
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
During the 1960s and 1970s, the individual rights revolution that swept through American society remade much of the nation's health law in its image. Sick people acquired the right to be told of the risks and benefits of proposed treatments and then to give thumbs-up or thumbs-down to their doctors' decisions. Successful suits for medical negligence went from rare to commonplace. Elderly and poor Americans achieved statutory rights of access to publicly funded healthcare, and courts burnished these rights with myriad procedural protections. The critically ill and their families won the right to refuse aggressive, life-sustaining treatments. Psychiatric patients acquired …
