Cut from a different community fabric
Purpose Priority-based budgeting (PBB) represents the latest departure from traditional incremental budgeting, implemented in over 400 North American governments. PBB also provides a mechanism to incorporate community context and changing community conditions into budgetary decision-making. Indeed, a municipal budget is largely influenced by the economic, socioeconomic, political, and fiscal characteristics of the surrounding community. Since ini…
Whose Priorities? Social Equity in the Priority‐Based Budgeting Process
Priority‐based budgeting (PBB) identifies community priorities and systematically reallocates budgetary resources from programs that are less aligned with those priorities to those that are more aligned. Proponents claim that PBB provides fresh opportunities to inject equity considerations into goal‐setting, prioritizing, and allocating activities via public engagement and direct minority representation among elected and appointed officials. This…
Councils, Managers. . . and Consultants? Management Consulting and Complementarity in Municipal Strategy Implementation
American governments spend $6 billion annually on management consulting, with steady growth. However, public-sector consulting receives little scholarly and public attention—especially for local governments. For which municipal projects are management consultants best suited? Svara asserts that complementarity promotes effective governance between city councils and their managers; sometimes, however, neither has the capability to lead the other. …
Bought in? The contingent effect of stakeholder support upon strategic implementation success in American municipalities
Strategic management scholars recognize the importance of stakeholder support for implementation. While they have assessed different stakeholder groups, research examining temporal and contextual aspects lags; masking contingent effects and limiting tailored guidance for practitioners. This study explores stakeholder management in American local governments by isolating the impact of support from various stakeholder groups upon four types of stra…

To monitor or intervene? City managers and the implementation of strategic initiatives
Strategic initiatives represent a government's response to constituent and organizational needs, but are only effective if properly implemented. In local governments with a council‐manager form of government, city managers face a unique dilemma as compounding challenges of implementation often require them to step into leadership roles typically reserved for elected officials. For this qualitative study, 16 city managers and project leaders from …
The Biopolitics of Disability
In the neoliberal era, when human worth is measured by its relative utility within global consumer culture, selected disabled people have been able to gain entrance into late capitalist culture. The Biopolitics of Disability terms this phenomenon "ablenationalism" and asserts that "inclusion" becomes meaningful only if disability is recognized as providing modes of living that are alternatives to governing norms of productivity and independence. …

Introduction
A key conflation of nation and able-ism has been emerging since at least the late eighteenth century in countries enduring processes of industrialization and post-industrialization. With a nod to Jasbir Puar's influential formulation of homonationalism,1 we call this convergence ablenationalism-the degree to which treating people with disabilities as an exception valorizes able-bodied norms of inclusion as the naturalized qualification of citizen…
Challenges, Crises, and Change in US Foreign Policy
The outcome of the 2008 US presidential election will prove momentous, as it signals a critical moment of choice for the next president on foreign policy. The president will have to decide whether or not to continue the policies of the last eightyears or chart a new course away from the Bush Doctrine. Not only will this be the first president to make policy in the post-Bush era, it will be the first president after George W. Bush to make policy i…

The Alberta SuperNet Research Alliance
The Report of the National Broadband Task Force (2001) raised the prospect of extending broadband capability to virtually all Canadian communities within the next few years. The prototype for Canada as a broadband-connected nation is already under way in the province of Alberta, where, within the next two years, 95% of communities will be provided with broadband connectivity. It is expected that the Alberta SuperNet will provide these communities…
Do International Institutions Matter
Within international relations, interest in the interplay between international and domestic politics dates from at least the 1960s and the development of “across-systems-theory” (Rosenau 1969; Wilkenfield 1973). However, it has only been in the past fifteen years that the field of international relations has placed any real emphasis on including domestic factors in its explanations of international behavior. In the past decade, for example, cons…
Narrative Prosthesis
Narrative Prosthesis: Disability and the Dependencies of Discourse develops a narrative theory of the pervasive use of disability as a device of characterization in literature and film. It argues that, while other marginalized identities have suffered cultural exclusion due to a dearth of images reflecting their experience, the marginality of disabled people has occurred in the midst of the perpetual circulation of images of disability in print a…
InSite
The InSite project aims to demonstrate how broadband video-conferencing technology can assist collaborative research goals. We propose a rigorous and thorough evaluation strategy based on a knowledge-management theoretical framework to deepen our understanding of broadband applications in a research setting. The sheer size and scope of the project will require the collective skills of a great number of technicians, researchers, and graduate stude…
Using Networked Technologies to Enhance Instruction and Research in Communications
Are there good reasons for communications programs in Canada to experiment with distance and distributed learning technologies? This paper argues that because there are only a handful of relatively small programs in the country which are geographically dispersed, it may make sense to use networked technologies to develop a critical mass of expertise in an emerging field like the social context of information and communication technologies (ICT). …

The Body and Physical Difference
For years the subject of human disability has engaged those in the biological, social cognitive sciences, while at the same time, it has been curiously neglected within the humanities. Body Physical Difference seeks to introduce the field of disability studies into the humanities by exploring the fantasies fictions that have crystallized around conceptions of physical cognitive difference. Based on the premise that the significance of disabilitie…

Tools for Enhancing the International Exchange of Communication Research
Can tools be developed to enhance the global exchange of research in communications? A model developed by Mansell et al. is used to conceptualize where probable “bottlenecks” might develop in efforts to network communications research. One likely bottleneck is bibliographical support systems which at present are poorly developed in our field. A new thesaurus structure developed by UNESCO's COMNET might serve as an international standard for index…
