Download or read book Policy Implementation of Social Welfare in the 1980s written by Frederick A. Lazin and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its highly centralized politièal institutions, Israel is typical of the unitary, nonfederal politièal systems in the world. On the other hand, with its growing emè¨hasis on federalism, the United States reveals the functions and dysfunctions of the pluralist sysè² em. In this provocative book, Frederick Lazin compares the two types of political systems to show how municipalities in Isè¨ael, as in the United States, exèrt considerable influence on implementation of national doè¡«estic policies. He argues conèµ³incingly that unitary systems have many of the same diffièulties that their federal counè² erparts have in implementing social welfare policies. This study provides a theè§retical basis for understanding how administrative institutional system and socioeconomic staè² us variables affect the potential influence of municipalities and make implementation of policies so problematic. It develops a model for policy implementation in unitary systems which then serves as a framework of analyè²is for a series of case studies of social welfare, education, and health policy in Israel. Comè¨arisons are then made with the federal political system of the United States in which the naè² ional government needs the cooperation of local authorities to implement its policies. Referènce is made to federal housing policies and programs for low-inèome Americans. Similarities as well as differences are noted beè² ween the two systems in order to reach conclusions about polè¹cy implementation regardless of type of political system. The book contributes both to the general literature on policy implementation as well as to the politics of unitary versus federal systems. It provides a unique and important analysis of probè¡ems confronting both types of system in the area of policy imè¨lementation of social welfare programs, which remain imporè² ant concerns in political sysè² ems throughout the world.

Download or read book Women in Israel written by Yael Atzmon and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series of the Israel Sociological Association, whose object is to identify and clarify the major themes that occupy social research in Israel today, gathers together the best of Israeli social science investigation that was previously scattered in a wide variety of international journals. Volume VI presents a composite portrait of women's lives in Israel, analyzing their status hi the family, at work, in the military, and in political life. The editors start from the premise that Israel is simultaneously a modem industrial society and a traditional one with regard to the structure and centrality of family life. It is governed by both secular law based on the principle of equality between men and women, and religious law that imposes a different legal status between the sexes. Many of the contributors analyze the social contradictions of this paradox and how they shape women's options and experiences. This is the first compendium offering a comprehensive account of women in Israeli society. As such it should be of great interest to people hi women's studies, sociology, and Middle Eastern affairs. Contents (partial): "Economic Growth and Female Labour: The Case of Israel," "Gender, Ethnicity, and Income Inequality: The Israeli Experience," "The Status of Women in Academia," "Scientists in Organizations: Discrimination Processes in an Internal Labor Market," "Economic and Familial Roles of Women in Israel," "Is Resource Theory Equally Applicable to Wives and Husbands?"

Download or read book The History of the Shanghai Jews written by Kevin Ostoyich and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-11-28 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a historical narrative, historiographical reviews, and scholarly analyses by leading scholars throughout the world on the hitherto understudied topic of Shanghai Jewish refugees. Few among the general public know that during the Second World War, approximately 16,000 to 20,000 Jews fled the Nazis, found unexpected refuge in Shanghai, and established a vibrant community there. Though most of them left Shanghai soon after the conclusion of the war in 1945, years of sojourning among the Chinese and surviving under the Japanese occupation generated unique memories about the Second World War, lasting goodwill between the Chinese and Jews, and contested interpretations of this complex past. The volume makes two major contributions to the studies of Shanghai Jewish refugees. First, it reviews the present state of the historiography on this subject and critically assesses the ways in which the history is being researched and commemorated in China. Second, it compiles scholarship produced by renowned scholars, who aim to rescue the history from isolated perspectives and look into the interaction between Jews, Chinese, and Japanese.

Download or read book Remaking America written by Joe Soss and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 2007-11-08 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past three decades, the contours of American social, economic, and political life have changed dramatically. The post-war patterns of broadly distributed economic growth have given way to stark inequalities of income and wealth, the GOP and its allies have gained power and shifted U.S. politics rightward, and the role of government in the lives of Americans has changed fundamentally. Remaking America explores how these trends are related, investigating the complex interactions of economics, politics, and public policy. Remaking America explains how the broad restructuring of government policy has both reflected and propelled major shifts in the character of inequality and democracy in the United States. The contributors explore how recent political and policy changes affect not just the social standing of Americans but also the character of democratic citizenship in the United States today. Lawrence Jacobs shows how partisan politics, public opinion, and interest groups have shaped the evolution of Medicare, but also how Medicare itself restructured health politics in America. Kimberly Morgan explains how highly visible tax policies created an opportunity for conservatives to lead a grassroots tax revolt that ultimately eroded of the revenues needed for social-welfare programs. Deborah Stone explores how new policies have redefined participation in the labor force—as opposed to fulfilling family or civic obligations—as the central criterion of citizenship. Frances Fox Piven explains how low-income women remain creative and vital political actors in an era in which welfare programs increasingly subject them to stringent behavioral requirements and monitoring. Joshua Guetzkow and Bruce Western document the rise of mass incarceration in America and illuminate its unhealthy effects on state social-policy efforts and the civic status of African-American men. For many disadvantaged Americans who used to look to government as a source of opportunity and security, the state has become increasingly paternalistic and punitive. Far from standing alone, their experience reflects a broader set of political victories and policy revolutions that have fundamentally altered American democracy and society. Empirically grounded and theoretically informed, Remaking America connects the dots to provide insight into the remarkable social and political changes of the last three decades.
