Georgia welfare experiences.

▼ Employing the methodology of Foucault’s genealogy and the method of focus groups, this qualitative, manuscript-based dissertation provides an in-depth exploration of
welfare in the United States and Georgia. The first manuscript examined the contingencies and historical eruptions that gave rise to
welfare systems today. Beginning with the Equal Opportunity Act of 1964 and ending with the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, the genealogy reveals historical contingencies that created and maintain today’s
welfare policies. The second manuscript builds on the first as it explores how women who receive
welfare navigate the processes in place and manage the perceptions of
welfare. Women who receive
welfare and/or housing in Georgia discussed their
welfare experiences in relation to their leisure experience. Data analysis is presented through the narrative of Sharise, a composite character constructed with transcripts, fieldnotes, and observation. Sharise described her experiences receiving
welfare and it was found that the White, middle class conceptualizations of leisure employed by leisure scholars do not address or describe the leisure experiences of women who receive
welfare. Implications include a call for continued and more in-depth research concerning class and leisure.

▼ The dissertation explores the social and cultural
history of a sixteenth-century Roman institution, the Conservatorio
di Santa Caterina. Linked to a local confraternity, the Compagnia
delle Vergini Miserabili, the Conservatorio catered to young women
from lower social classes, especially daughters of prostitutes in
danger of being forced into their mothers' trade. The first
institution of this kind on the Italian peninsula, the
Conservatorio became a model for analogous shelters founded in
other cities over the course of the sixteenth century. The
dissertation explores the founding of the institution and the first
century of its long history, with a focus on significant moments in
its development and its adaptation to the changing urban needs of
early modern Rome. The research is primarily based on sixteenth and
seventeenth-century manuscript and printed documents archived by
the confraternity, including their meeting minutes, donation
receipts, financial records and wards’ registers. By comparing
archival sources with sixteenth-century printed booklets on charity
and with archeological sources, the dissertation illuminates the
daily activities, ritual ceremonies and educative practices of the
Conservatorio. The project examines the significance of charity as
a trademark of religious orthodoxy and its social function as a
networking activity in early modern Rome. In addition, the
dissertation investigates the Conservatorio’s practices in light of
early modern history of women. As a
welfare institution that aimed
at opposing the sex trade and protecting female virtue, the
Conservatorio’s educative project reproduced the functions of
kinship support networks and relied on education to achieve its
purposes. By interpreting female education broadly as a type of
training that provided young women with the practical competencies
they needed in their adult life, the dissertation aims at sketching
a more realistic picture of what it meant to be “educated” for
lower class women in the early modern period.

▼ The social
welfare system in the United Sates has
changed drastically over the last century. As a result of these
changes, many federal, state and local government leaders have had
to enhance their leadership styles, but more importantly, attempt
to change the overall corporate culture and mindset of employees by
developing new strategies for success. The largest impact of
welfare reform can not only be felt by those who receive government
assistance but also by local directors who manage limited financial
budgets, shrinking community resources as well as staff, and for
the first time since
welfare reform was signed into law, an
increase in recipients due to a sluggish economy. This study
chronicles how key changes in our social
welfare system have driven
the leadership of three county directors and explains how each
leadership style has had a major impact on past and present
corporate culture, organizational structure and outlines the
resulting consequence of leadership lag at the largest social
service agency in Lucas County. It also discusses the various
business models used historically and in the present economy, and
argues that critical social and environmental issues have shaped
the way each director has been forced to lead the agency. Finally,
recommendations are made to assist the current leadership in
designing future strategies to help maintain a feasible
organization and the structural changes needed to help implement
and support these changes.

▼ This dissertation focuses on the everyday discourses on the
welfare state in Germany, Sweden and the USA to explore the link between
welfare regimes and national political cultures. It utilizes focus group discussions and Q studies to locate these discourses. In the focus group discussions, participants debate different aspects of the
welfare state with each other. I analyze these discussions and contrast the patterns within and across national
welfare cultures. For a more systematic and replicable comparison of discourses, I employ the Q method. I conduct two sets of Q studies (one unique for each country and the other identical across countries). In these studies, respondents are asked to rank the given statements according to their level of agreement or disagreement. Statements for the unique Q studies are drawn from the focus group discussions, and statements for the standard Q study are drawn from international public opinion surveys. I factor-analyze the responses to locate the groups of arguments that cluster together to form rival discourses. The discourses that emerge from the analysis of the unique (country-specific) statements produce stark differences that parallel the
welfare regime institutions of the respective nations and support the main hypothesis of this study. The implications of these findings for the study of the relationship between political institutions and discourses are discussed.

▼ This research study was a formative program evaluation completed for the State of Georgia Department of Family and Children Services (DFCS) to assess the Title IV-E program. Title IV-E funds are used to provide social work education to full-time and part-time bachelor’s and master’s degree students who are interested in public child
welfare employment following graduation. Graduates of the program were asked to rate their own capabilities in completing thirty various tasks of child
welfare work; they also completed scales on professional commitment, job satisfaction, job stress, and their intent to remain working for DFCS. Two comparison groups of new case managers hired during the same period also completed the measures: one group of new employees who had no social work education, and another group of new case managers who had social work degrees, but had not received Title IV-E funding. Additionally, supervisors of the study participants were asked to rate their workers’ capabilities using the same measures. The results of the data analysis indicated that there were no statistically significant differences among groups of new workers. It was found that the Title IV-E graduates and the group of non-IV-E social workers rated themselves the same as their supervisors. However, the group of non-social workers rated themselves significantly higher than their own supervisors did. This result led to the speculation that non-social workers are more likely to not know what they don’t know about child
welfare work. The measures of job stress, professional commitment, and intent to remain employed for DFCS did not show significant differences among groups. Job satisfaction did show significant difference among groups with the non-social workers indicating the greatest satisfaction and the non-IV-E social workers showing the least satisfaction.

A comparison of two animal welfare protocols for dairy cattle.

▼ For the scoring of cow comfort more options are possible. In this study two scoring systems are compared, being the cow comfort score system [20] and the
Welfare Quality® assessment protocol for dairy cattle [21]. These scoring systems are developed to score the
welfare of dairy cows. The study was performed in the northern part of Greece during February and March 2010 by two investigators combined with another study. A random sample of eight farms were visited, the size of the farms differed from 32 to 175 dairy cows. Because the cow-comfort score is designed for Holstein Friesian cows and has to be applied on stalls with cubicles only farms with this breed and these type off barns were used.
The main difference lies in the practical execution. The cow comfort score system is committed more to assess the environment of the cow. The
Welfare Quality® protocol gives much attention to individual cows, about their emotional and physical state. The cow comfort score system is more easy and quick to use. Examining cows individually takes longer and is more subjective. Examining the environment of the cow is objective and can be done quickly. Despite the duration difference in execution the results of both systems had a correlation of 0.843 (P= 0.009). Scores achieved by the individual farms using the cow comfort score system varied from 55 until 330 points. The overall assessment of the farms with the
welfare quality protocol varied from not classified to enhanced. The results of this study show that both systems can be used to assess the
welfare status of the cows on a dairy farm in Greece. Since the number of farms studied in the present study is not large, more studies are needed to confirm the findings.

▼ There is no question that large social problems like poverty and educational inequality are difficult to solve. Many groups throughout the nation and world are adopting the framework of collective impact in efforts to solve these problems together, as opposed to working in individual silos yielding only isolated impact. However, the framework that is used to align high-level leaders and resources has been criticized for being too “top down” and perhaps leaving out the actual people who are directly affected by the interventions. This report examines whether and how collective impact initiatives foster the participation and engagement of the very people that the initiatives purport to affect. It presents three case studies of initiatives that have had great success solving a social problem in their communities: Shape Up Somerville (childhood obesity and community health in Massachusetts); the Communities That Care Coalition of Franklin County and the North Quabbin (teen substance abuse in rural Massachusetts); and Vibrant Communities and the Hamilton Roundtable for Poverty Reduction (poverty reduction in Ontario, Canada). Analysis of these collective impact initiatives through the lens of community engagement and participation finds that not all groups have been intentional about creating structures that, from the beginning, meaningfully involve affected populations at the leadership level. However, some groups are moving toward greater inclusion, and do rely on community members for consultation and implementation of strategies. To do so, initiatives must consider that the deepest forms of engagement require considerable capacity building and support of new leaders, and that groups must take time to develop trusting relationships at all levels of engagement.

▼ Homelessness is a phenomenon that has been studied for decades. The homeless have been counted, analyzed, recounted, identified, grouped, and categorized. Their profiles and trends have been stored in massive database systems such as the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS). A wealth of literature exists exploring who the homeless are and why they are homeless. What seems to be lacking in the homelessness literature is a thorough analysis of issues and solutions from the perspectives of the individuals who know homelessness the best—those who have experienced it. Structural issues such as housing and poverty are crucial components of any solution, and they are explored ad nauseam in the literature. While researchers contend that dignity, selfesteem and identity may be just as important to satisfy as basic needs in order to end homelessness, these themes still have not been fully explored. The purpose of this study was to create a forum for participants to raise issues about homelessness and advise possible solutions. Issues and solutions were then organized through the lenses of dignity, identity and self-esteem, since all participants discussed these themes in detail.

Spring 2010
This exploratory study examines current literature on the topic of kinship care and Relative Search and Engagement. The project allowed the researcher to work in a child
welfare environment and examine current practices of Relative Search and Engagement. The researcher worked collaboratively with child
welfare staff to form solutions to challenges existing in the field of Relative Search and Engagement in child
welfare. This study discusses best practices in Relative Search and Engagement and how practices such as family finding, early search for relatives and collaboration with child
welfare staff can improve outcomes for children in foster care

▼ African American males form the largest category of converts to Sunni Islam in the US. This study aimed at understanding the ways in which the conversion process impacted social connections, both preexisting connections and creation and fostering of new ones post-conversion. This study sought to capture this understanding from the perspective of the converts themselves, in their own voices. Specifically, this study explored the ways in which conversion to Sunni Islam among African American men living in Philadelphia impacted their relationships with family members, friends, neighborhood members, those in the broader African American community, and in places of employment.
This study was exploratory in nature and consisted of a total of 26 in-depth interviews. The primary data consisted of 21 interviews conducted with converts. An additional 5 interviews, conducted with key informants, formed a second data source and served to contextualize the findings that emerged from the primary data source. Efforts were made to interview participants representing a diversity of ages, lengths of time converted, and denominational affiliations.
Several key findings emerged from this data. In light of the processual nature of religious conversion, the degree of religious intensification was found to be associated with the degree to which converts had traversed the boundary of their faith. Denominational affiliation was found to be important for understanding post-conversion experiences as adherents from different theological perspectives oriented their day-to-day lives in notable ways in respect to different criteria. The primary line of demarcation was found to be between fundamentalist and more moderate groups. Finally, it was found that prolonged exposure to Muslims in the city has led to nonpersonalized-acceptance, the acceptance of Muslims in the physical space of Philadelphia; this has served to curtail excessively negative reactions towards Muslims by non-Muslims in the various domains of community life, yet it appears that this acceptance has been limited to the physical realm and that true acceptance and integration are relatively speaking, lacking. The acceptance and integration to date however is suggestive of a process by which marginalized organizations with rigid boundaries began to diffuse into their broader communities and gain full acceptance.

▼ Child
welfare is an important social issue which the public is generally interested in hearing about. The media plays an important role in delivering child
welfare news to the public. Media portrayals of child
welfare issues are important because the discourses have the power to influence public opinion and perception.
Presented are the findings using a qualitative methodology; a discourse analysis of how child
welfare intervention is portrayed in 282 Canadian daily newspapers over a six year period between 2008 and 2014.
The data shows that there is a tendency for the media to present an unfavourable view of child
welfare and to classify child
welfare intervention as having failed. The predominant discourses across the themes related to: blame of the child
welfare system and government, for child
welfare failures. The principal source of blame directed at the child
welfare system was their failure to keep children safe, and government were found to be responsible for failing to provide child
welfare agencies with sufficient resources to adequately function.

▼ Debate has occurred over the past decade about Aboriginal Australians’ ‘
welfare dependency’. How can this challenging discourse be deconstructed and understood? This thesis returns to the roots of the imposition of
welfare on Aboriginal Australians in the colony of New South Wales. It examines the period from the invasion of Sydney Cove by the British in 1788 and the early settlement to 1859. This thesis addresses the question: In what ways was
welfare used by the British in the process of colonization of Aboriginal people in the colony of New South Wales?The methodology employed is a Critical Indigenous approach. Generally, Australian history has been told by non-Indigenous Australians, informed by a Western understanding and interpretation of documentary and other evidence. Understandings and interpretatons are derived from Indigenous knowledges and ways of knowing and being. ‘Seeing’ the creation of
welfare for Aboriginal peoples in the early colony through this Indigenous critical historical method opens a new understanding of Aboriginal
welfare. Archival documents not used previously in this way, are examined to understand how the early Governors of NSW and the British government of the day conceptualized and dealt with Aboriginal peoples In particular this thesis explores how Aboriginal people were welfarised within the colony of New South Wales. Further to this it is found that welfarisation was not only the result of colonisation but also used as a method in the process of colonising. The findings of this thesis provides a new way of thinking about what occurred during the colonisation of NSW and the impact upon Aboriginal people. It also provides a way in which to consider how it is possible to decolonise the way in which we understand our past, know who we are today and allow us to address current issues in a manner which is based on human rights and social justice. It is essential for all Australians, not only Aboriginal people, that we are able to break free from the shackles of our colonial mentality and commence the process of decolonisation.

▼ Het doel van dit onderzoek was om te bekijken of eigenaren van honden met overgewicht/obesitas aanwijzingen zien voor een verminderd welzijn van hun hond, zoals gezondheidsklachten en gedragsveranderingen. Verder werd er onderzocht of er verschillen zijn tussen honden met een normaal gewicht en honden met overgewicht/obesitas wat betreft voeding en beweging en waar eigenaren verandering in zouden willen brengen als hun hond zou moeten afvallen.
Een enquête werd ingevuld door eigenaren van honden die een dierenartsenpraktijk bezochten. De eigenaren (n = 128) kregen vragen over de gezondheid, het gedrag, de voeding en beweging van hun hond. Na verwerking van de gegevens met behulp van SPSS bleek dat de honden met overgewicht/obesitas vaker gewrichtsklachten hebben en vaker een ontstekingsremmer krijgen. Ze zijn sneller moe, kunnen minder goed tegen warmte en spelen minder met andere honden. Ze krijgen vaker voer van de supermarkt en krijgen minder beweging. Eigenaren denken vaker dat hun hond altijd honger heeft.
Verder geven eigenaren aan dat ze advies van hun dierenarts willen als hun hond zou moeten afvallen. De mensen die geen voeradvies hebben gehad, willen dit echter ook niet. Eigenaren geven aan liever meer te gaan wandelen als hun hond moet afvallen, maar doen dit juist niet. Een groot deel van de eigenaren van honden met overgewicht/obesitas onderschat de mate van het overgewicht bij hun hond. Ze weten vaak wel dat obesitas invloed heeft op de gezondheid van een hond. Bewustwording van het probleem bij eigenaren is erg belangrijk en verhoogd hopelijk ook de motivatie om de voeding en beweging van hun hond aan te passen.

▼ Child protection workers, who are often graduates of schools of social work, are the frontline professionals who are charged with making determinations about the safety of children, and developing interventions to address these safety concerns. Determining the safety of children is an extremely difficult process due to the complexity of the issues that may exist in any one situation, including the impact of social problems, the complexity of human behaviour, and the need to predict future actions and consequences. On top of these challenges, child protection workers are subject to strict reporting and practice requirements imposed by the government and are required to provide a service mandated by legislation and funded by taxpayers. Given such responsibilities and constraints how does a person get prepared to work in the field of child welfare?
The purpose of this research was to explore what child welfare managers think prepares new BSW graduates to enter into the field of child welfare. In particular, how well are BSW graduates currently prepared? Is there a need to improve preparedness, and if so, what could be done to achieve this? Literature provided key but contradictory perspectives in the debate around the preparedness of new workers. However, it is recognized that a partnership between education and child welfare could have beneficial effect on preparedness.
Using the approaches of Interpretive Social Science and Critical Social Science, this qualitative research study was designed using semi-structured interviews to generate the data. Data was interpreted and analyzed through the techniques of coding and memo-writing from Grounded Theory. A colleague conducted a separate study of new workers which provided an opportunity to compare and contrast managers perspectives with those of new workers leading to a clearer understanding of preparedness.
Overall, new workers are deemed to be prepared in terms of having the knowledge base that is needed to start working in child welfare. However, child welfare managers believe more learning opportunities need to be built into school programs that focus on applying theory to practice, child welfare specific knowledge, and understanding the complexity of mandated work. Field placements in child welfare settings, are considered to be valuable in preparing students prior to employment. Child welfare managers believe that an alliance between education and the field could optimize the readiness of new workers so as to ensure quality service for families in our community.

▼ When an animal has learned a discrimination between two stimuli on the same dimension, exposing the animal to intermediate stimuli will produce a generalisation gradient. Events that that shift responding from this baseline are said to bias responding. Shifts in gradient which show more responding to intermediate stimuli are called positive judgement biases; while shifts in gradient showing reduced responding on intermediate stimuli are called negative judgement biases. While initial studies showed that exposure to poor conditions prior to testing produced negative biases, not all of the literature has supported this. This study aimed to clarify inconsistencies in the literature, using a within-subjects design and a short-term aversive event. Chickens were trained under two-component multiple schedules with each component associated with a stimulus location. Phase 1 involved 15 min exposure to white noise at 100dB, followed immediately by judgement bias testing. Phase 2 involved exposure to white noise at the same dB level, but for the duration of the test. Phase 3 involved judgment bias testing, interrupted by 15 min white noise at 100dB, following which the test resumed. According to early studies, chickens would show a negative bias in Phase 1 and in the second half of Phase 3. However, if release from stressful conditions produces a positive judgement bias, then a negative judgement bias would be expected in Phase 2 only. Results showed negative biases for some birds in Phase 1, and for all birds in Phase 2. No statistically significant bias was observed in Phase 3. The author argues that idiosyncratic differences may have influenced the direction of bias observed in Phase 1, and suggests further investigations be conducted.

▼ Exposure to disease and pain will prolong animal ‘suffering’, and as such, diminishes
welfare. Identifying behaviours indicative of these conditions can facilitate early detection, timely treatment and improved
welfare. Contributing to the problem of disease and pain detection in calves is the innate tendency of these animals to mask behavioural signs of vulnerability (stoicism), and the extensive use of group-housing systems. Existing technology was used in my research to obtain objective measures of behaviour in response to disease and pain. The goal of this thesis was to explore these key aspects of calf
welfare:
The work reported in Chapter 2 investigated a naturally occurring disease (neonatal calf diarrhoea complex) in pre-weaned calves to assess whether changes in milk-feeding and lying behaviours could be used for early disease detection. Calves were observed for a three week period, starting when they were four days old. Data on milk feeding and lying behaviours were obtained using automated milk-feeders and HOBO data loggers respectively. Lying postures were analysed from daily video footage at five minute intervals between 10:00-14:00 (seven days per week). For statistical analysis, calves were classified as ‘sick’ (n=21), or ‘not sick’ (n=91). This thesis identified three feeding measures of interest for disease detection: 1) reduced milk consumption, 2) increased duration of visits to the milk feeder, and 3) sick calves were less likely to receive a rewarded visit compared to calves that were not sick. Sick calves increased the duration of lying bouts nearing time of illness; however, no difference was observed between sick calves and those that were not sick. Postural observations were not effective at predicting illness. The use of automated milk-feeders to detect disease in calves has been studied extensively overseas; to my knowledge, this is the first New Zealand study to use automated feeders for this purpose. The results of this study indicate that aspects of milk feeding behaviour can be used to detect diseased calves in group housing systems.
The work reported in Chapter 3 used hot iron disbudding as a pain model to determine whether changes in milk-feeding and lying behaviours could be used to identify pain in calves less than 4 weeks of age. Data was obtained using automated feeders and HOBO data loggers respectively over three observation periods (pre-treatment, treatment day and post-treatment). Fifty-three calves (26.5 ± 3.5 days of age) were allocated to one of five treatment groups: hot iron disbudded with no analgesia (n=11), disbudded with a local anaesthetic (LA, n=11), disbudded with a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID; n=11), disbudded with NSAID and LA (n=10), and SHAM calves (n=11). Analysis of feeding behaviour revealed only one difference between all treatment groups; SHAM calves showed a greater number of visits to the milk feeder during the recovery period compared to disbudded animals. Feeding and lying behaviours in this study were considered to be…

▼ Resilience is defined as positive adaptation and functioning following exposure to significant risk or adversity (e.g., maltreatment). It is an important topic of investigation in child welfare due to the number of children with such adverse life experiences. While the definition of positive adaptation varies in the literature, maltreatment researchers often define it in terms of the low frequency of behavioural problems, with the consideration that resilience in a child may be fluid across domains of functioning and/or across time. The current dissertation examined resilience among maltreated school-age children living in out-of-home care through three interrelated studies. The first examined multilevel correlates of behavioural resilience among a sample of 5 to 9 year old children living in out-of-home care. The second used developmental trajectory modeling to examine behavioural functioning across time among a sample of school-age children living in out-of-home care (with a particular focus on trajectories of resilience), and the third used semi-structured interviews to gain the often-neglected perspectives on resilience of child welfare workers. Findings across all three studies revealed several factors within various levels of the ecological model that contribute to resilience, including child internal developmental assets and relationships and social support. Furthermore, findings teased apart the distal impact of child welfare workers and agencies. The current dissertation contributes to the existing literature by informing researchers and professionals working within the child welfare sector about the factors that are important for promoting resilience among vulnerable children in out-of-home care with the aim of improving the well-being of this population.

▼ This dissertation studies the impact of
welfare policies in India and the United States with an emphasis on the indirect effects on children’s well being.
Welfare policies, especially policies that target poverty alleviation, have been shown to increase employment and family income. I explore their potential to have secondary effects on children’s health and education and to have long run effects. I analyze three large public
welfare policies, the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) in India, the WWII GI Bill in the United States and the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) in the United States.
The first chapter studies NREGA in India, the world’s largest public works program, which has increased employment and wages in rural India. Using a regression discontinuity with difference-in-difference empirical strategy based on a unique method used by the government to roll out the program in three phases, I find that the program significantly increased child health investments, reduced child mortality and increased children’s ability to complete math and reading exercises.
The second chapter studies the WWII GI Bill in the United States, which provided generous education financial support to veterans and is popular for having increased college education. Using a regression discontinuity design based on the sharp fall in eligibility across birth cohorts due to the enlistment method, I find that the WWII GI Bill also caused a significant increase in high school completion and in the long run an increase in employment and a decrease in poverty.
The third chapter studies the EITC in the United States, which is a tax credit scheme that supplements earned income and has increased employment particularly for single mothers with high school level of education or below. Using the differential increase in 1993 in the tax credit generosity across families with one child and families with two or more children, I find that the program increased child health insurance coverage, especially through private health insurance.
The analyses of the three programs demonstrate that
welfare policies can indirectly benefit children’s development and have positive effects in the long run, which should be included in their evaluation.

▼ Dental decay is a worldwide Public Health problem. In the last decade Oral Health professionals in the UK have focused on developing national and regional Oral Health programmes to reduce dental caries rates in young children. Smile4Life is an example of a regional programme, which has been implemented in North West England. Recent research suggests health programmes should have a conscious theoretical base and incorporate multi-sectorial approaches. A literature review was undertaken to identify the differences between the theoretical underpinnings used in Oral Health interventions compared to General Health interventions. This showed that Oral Health interventions have been predominately underpinned by educational approaches and used fewer approaches that consider organisational and environmental factors. However, the literature review did not identify barriers and facilitators to the use of theoretical underpinnings in real-life settings. To understand the barriers and facilitators to developing and implementing interventions in real-life settings, and how barriers and facilitators relate to the theoretical underpinnings identified in the literature review, semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine policymakers who were responsible for developing and ten implementers who were responsible for delivering Smile4Life. The analysis was undertaken using an inductive thematic analysis. The interview findings consist of an overall meta-theme and three themes. The meta-theme refers to ‘intra-group relationships and inter-group boundaries’. Intra-group relationships refer to the relations within the policymaker group or implementer group. The inter-group boundaries refer to divisions between the two groups that meant people within each group perceived themselves to be distinct from people in the other group. The first theme intra-group inclusion and inter-group exclusion outlines that within each group, individuals interacted with one another and had a shared sense of unity and group beliefs. However, there were boundaries between the two groups due to a lack of interactions and feelings of exclusion between the groups. The second theme, different knowledge, experiences, and beliefs identified that each group shared similar knowledge and experiences, but between the groups this knowledge was not shared. The third theme standardised or flexible implementation identified that due to the differences in knowledge, experiences, and beliefs between the groups, these differences prevented the formation of a shared vision of how to implement Smile4Life. The groups divisions led to the implementers making changes to the intended implementation strategy of Smile4Life. This research suggests that the implementers (middle managers) are important in the development and implementation of Oral Health programmes and potentially other interventions. Currently, theoretical underpinnings do not explicitly consider middle managers in the development and implementation of interventions. A set of Implementer Engagement Guidelines,…

▼ There is a lot of research about
welfare leavers and how they cycle on and off TANF; however, not many studies focus on the types of jobs
welfare leavers have and how they fare after they have been off of TANF for a substantial amount of time. This study focuses on the types of job mothers enter after they leave TANF, what the characteristics of these jobs are and how their jobs affect their family. Using qualitative methods, I interviewed seventeen mothers who had jobs and had been off of TANF for nine months or longer. I used the snowball technique to gain access to this population and social organizations to obtain more interviews from these women. Semi-structured interview were conducted so I could catch each interview to the leaver, so no interviewers were alike. Like past research has shown, I found these mothers were entering service industry jobs. Their jobs paid low wages, were physically and mentally exhausting and produced emotional labor; however, the mothers believed their jobs impacted their family positively by providing more material things, a stable routine and health insurance. Showing
welfare leaver's perceptions of their lives after TANF may be helpful because the way they perceive things may be different from the reality around them.

▼ This thesis is an investigation of the prevalence of, and factors associated with, hock, knee, and neck injuries on dairy cattle in Canada. Tie-stall (n = 100) and free-stall farms
(n = 90) were visited in Quebec, Ontario, and Alberta, Canada. Cows were scored for hock (tarsus), knee (carpus), and neck injuries on a 3 or 4-point scale combining the attributes of hair loss, broken skin, and swelling. Animal-based and environmental measures were taken which were hypothesized to be risk factors for injury. On tie-stall farms the mean herd-level prevalence of hock, knee, and neck injuries was 56, 43, and 30%, respectively. On free-stall farms the mean herd-level prevalence of hock, knee, and neck injuries was 47, 24, and 9%, respectively. Having sand stall bases, feed rail heights above 140 cm and managing cows to reduce slips and falls were associated with reduced injury prevalence.

▼ As the number of Indigenous children and youth in the care of Manitoba child
welfare steadily increases, so do the questions and public debates. The loss of children from Indigenous communities due to residential schools and later on, to child
welfare, has been occurring for well over a century and Indigenous people have been continuously grieving and protesting this forced removal of their children. In 1999, when the Manitoba government announced their intention to work with Indigenous peoples to expand off-reserve child
welfare jurisdiction for First Nations, establish a provincial Métis mandate and restructure the existing child care system through legislative and other changes, Indigenous people across the province celebrated it as an opportunity for meaningful change for families and communities. The restructuring was to be accomplished through the Aboriginal Justice Initiative-Child
Welfare Initiative (AJI-CWI).
Undoubtedly, more than a decade later, many changes have been made to the child
welfare system but children are still been taken into care at even higher rates than before the changes brought about by the AJI-CWI. In order to develop an understanding of what has occurred as a result of the AJI-CWI process, this study reached out to child
welfare workers who had worked in the system before, during and after the process was put in place. Using a storytelling approach based in an Indigenous methodology, twenty-seven child
welfare workers shared how they perceived the benefits, the deficits, the need for improvement and how they observed the role of Indigenous culture within the child
welfare context. The stories provide a unique insight into how the changes were implemented and how the storytellers experienced the process, as well as their insights into barriers, disappointments, benefits and recommendations for systemic change.

▼ Ekonomistų siūlomi įvairūs ekonominės
gerovės vertinimo variantai. Tačiau nei vienas jų neparodo
visaverčio ekonominės gerovės vaizdo. Todėl darbo tikslas –
išanalizuoti ekonominės gerovės matavimo per makroekonominius
rodiklius galimybes. Problemai ištirti darbe išskiriamos trys
dalys. Pirmoje dalyje numatoma išanalizuoti ekonomikos teoriją
(istorinės ekonomikos mokyklų idėjos, gerovės ekonomikos vieno
pradininkų A.C.Pigou idėjos, matematinės krypties atstovų idėjos).
Antroje dalyje per statistinių duomenų analizę (Europos Sąjungos
pavyzdžiu) bandoma suvokti ir apibrėžti galimų rodiklių
pritaikomumą ekonominės gerovės matavime. Taip padaromas pagrindas
trečiajai daliai. Šioje darbo dalyje bandoma išvesti vieningą
ekonominės gerovės matavimo indeksą, apibendrinantį visus jau
nagrinėtus tinkamus makroekonominius rodiklius. Padaryta teorinė
analizė ir empirinis tyrimas leido darbo autoriui sukurti ir
aprašyti sistemą (ekonominės gerovės indeksą), kuris apima
pagrindinius makroekonominius rodiklius bei leidžia įvertinti abi
ekonominės gerovės sudedamąsias dalis: turtingumą bei
pasiskirstymą. Sistemos išbandymas realiais statistiniais
duomenimis leido iš esmės ją subalansuoti.
Although economists offer different variants
for welfare measuring, none of this variants can disclose the fool
situation of economic wellbeing. That is why the main goal of this
thesis is to analyze possibilities of economic welfare measuring by
macroeconomics indicators. The thesis includes three parts. The
first one is for theoretical analyses (ideas of historical economic
schools, thoughts by A.C.Pigou – one of the welfare economics
beginners, mathematic direction of economics). In the second part
usefulness of possible indicators for measuring of economical
welfare is being tried to discover through analysis of statistics
data (using European Union statistics). That is how basis for the
third part was made. In the last part unified index of economic
welfare, which summarizes all mentioned macroeconomics indicators,
is tried to be obtained. Theoretical analysis and empirical
research allowed to make and describe the system (index of economic
welfare) for the author by himself. This system includes main
macroeconomical indicators and allows to unite both parts of
economic welfare wealth and distribution. After some test with
statistical data index of economic welfare was mainly
balanced.

▼ Does authoritarian regime provide social protection to its people? What is the purpose of social welfare provision in an authoritarian regime? How is social welfare policy designed and enforced in the authoritarian and multilevel governance setting? Who gets what, when and how from the social welfare provision in an authoritarian regime? My dissertation investigates these questions through a detailed study of Chinese social health insurance from 1998 to 2010. I argue and empirically show that the Chinese social health insurance system is characterized by a nationwide stratification pattern as well as systematic regional differences in generosity and coverage of welfare benefits. I argue that the distribution of Chinese social welfare benefits is a strategic choice of the central leadership who intends to maintain particularly privileged provisions for the elites whom are considered important for social stability while pursuing broad and modest social welfare provisions for the masses. Provisions of the welfare benefits are put in practice, however, through an interaction between the central leaders who care most about regime stability and the local leaders who confront distinct constraints in local circumstances such as fiscal stringency and social risk. The dynamics of central-local interactions stands at the core of the politics of social welfare provision, and helps explain the remarkable subnational variation in social welfare under China's authoritarian yet decentralized system.
This dissertation attempts to contribute to the studies of authoritarianism, decentralization and social welfare in the following aspects. First, in specifying the rationale, conditions and policy results of the interaction between Chinese central and local leaders in social welfare provision, the dissertation sheds light on how political leaders in an authoritarian regime with multilevel governance structure respond to social needs. The analysis of subnational politicians' incentive structure and policy choices in social welfare provision, which are missing in most extant studies of authoritarianism and social welfare, demonstrates an "indirect accountability" built into the Chinese social welfare provision. This "indirect accountability", evidenced by local leaders' proactive accommodation of social and local needs through social policies, may partially account for the puzzling resilience and flexibility of Chinese authoritarian regime. Second, the dissertation demonstrates that social welfare expansion, in some cases, is not a result of democracy but of resilient authoritarianism. Social welfare is one tool employed by authoritarian leaders to maintain regime stability. The political motivation for social welfare provision is different in non-democracies – it is more directly from top-down pressure of maintaining order rather than from bottom-up demands as in democracies – but this does not mean that non-democracies provide less social welfare than democracies do. Furthermore, the dissertation highlights the multidimensionality…

▼ This thesis explores green consumerism and
how it is used within the current practices of corporate and
governmental agenda. It also analyzes the role consumerism in
Western culture has played in modifying popular environmentalism to
become more compatible with free-market liberalization. Through an
analysis of international environmental organizations, as well as
contemporary cases of green consumerism it is argued that many
environmental concerns are themselves becoming commodified due to
the inherent and deep seated role consumerism has in Western
culture. In conclusion, implications to long term changes to
environmental management are discussed as well as the problems
inherent with the use of individualized consumption as a method for
instilling comprehensive changes to the way our environment is
managed.

▼ This thesis investigates how oil corporations
in Nigeria govern citizens through the implementation of certain
corporate responsibility initiatives. The examination of
ExxonMobil, Shell, and Chevron, and how each corporation governs
individuals through various capacity-building initiatives will be
discussed. From a governmentality perspective, this thesis examines
how, under neoliberalism, private actors utilize certain governance
''techniques'' that render individuals to be responsible and
self-sufficient. By focussing on the ''responsibilization'' of
Nigerian citizens, the oil corporations have minimized their own
responsibility to respect the environment, life-styles, forms of
subsistence, and human rights of the population effected by their
oil explorations. This thesis concludes that the various
capacity-building projects undertaken by ExxonMobil, Shell, and
Chevron in order to govern Nigerian citizens, with their focus on
building self-sufficiency and responsibility, have been indicative
of the shifting power relations within the modern era of
governance.

▼ This thesis investigates the politics of
homelessness in Ontario by examining two programs, the Consolidated
Homelessness Prevention Program (CHPP) and the Hostels- to-Homes
(H2H) program, that were created in 2006 and 2007 respectively by
the Ministry of Community and Social Services. The CHPP program is
designed at the local government level and provides funding and
social services to the homeless and hard-to-house. The H2H program
is a pilot project directed by the Ministry of Community and Social
Services and uses a 'Housing-First' approach to get chronic shelter
users into more permanent housing. From a governmentality
perspective, this thesis examines how these two program fit into
the current political framework of the Ontario government. This
research concludes that these programs, with a focus on community
and individual responsibility, are symptomatic of advanced liberal
governance and that the responsibilization of the homeless has
social justice implications.

▼ The main purpose of this thesis is to analyze and evaluate the present Uruguayan export promotion strategy, its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. Besides, based on the examples of other successful developing countries some recommendations are made with the aim of facing the identified weaknesses and threats so as to reinforce the role of exports in Uruguayan development strategy. For that purpose, the policies related to export promotion such as the international insertion, productive, educational, economic, and innovation policies have been evaluated using the SWOT analysis. Two research questions guided this investigation. The first one, related to the coordination and/or coherence, or the lack of it, among the different policies connected to export promotion; the other one referred to the role of the diverse actors involved in the design and implementation of these policies, and how they influence upon the export promotion strategy. The main conclusion of this work is that, in order to expand Uruguayan exports it is crucial to design and implement an integrated strategy that contemplates the competitiveness of Uruguayan goods and services as well as the innovation and the international insertion. Thus, the first stage should be the definition of an export promotion strategy, with clear and measurable objectives and goals on a long-term basis. The objectives of the different policies related to export promotion must be aligned to the main aims of the strategy. Secondly, in order for this strategy to be successful, private-public alliances are needed so as to reach a consensus on the goals and how to accomplish them. Lastly, the effectiveness of this export promotion strategy will depend on the coherence and articulation of the different policies involved (international insertion, productive, economic, education and innovation policy) and on the coordination between the State and the private sector. To facilitate those elements, the Uruguayan Export and Investment Promotion Agency Uruguay XXI should play a decisive role as the actor responsible for the coordination and articulation of the interaction among the various agencies involved in export promotion, following the guidelines set by the Interministerial Commission for External Trade Affairs (CIACEX).

▼ This paper analyzes the premises of the Territorial Approach for Rural Development—ETDR—as framework for public policies design in Latin America, by examines its application in the Rural Development Plan of the Province of Mendoza, Argentina, designed in 2004. The analysis identified significant shortcomings, within the approach, when applied as framework for the design of public policies. Among these, are mentioned the inability to incorporate the singularities of the rural territories in Latin America and to promote a real change in the management of the rural model. As a general consideration, it is propose a rotation stage towards a territorial vision of local governance. A vision apply to local areas, with their natural urban-rural mix, and seeking the establishment of a management model determined by three main axes: the territorial level, the field of management and coordinate policies in accordance with principles of decentralization, participation and responsibility.
