Comparability and Value in Comic-to-Film Adaptations
In this article, I argue, adverting to critical practices, that film adaptations are comparable with the comics that serve as their sources. The possibility of comparison presumes the existence of covering values according to which these comparisons are made. I raise four groupings of covering values for comics—narrative, pictorial, historical, and referential—and show how they apply to film adaptations as well, and argue that a fifth kind of val…
The Philosophy of Comics
This book advances the field of comics studies by attending to some of its most notable problems. It begins with what comics are: a treatment of the history of comics, the contrast between comics and cartoons, the tenuous place of comics in the artworld, and what it is to be a comic in the first place. It turns next to how comics work: what the fundamental media that compose comics are, how they push comics toward specific kinds of representation…

Aging policy and process in the Canadian federal government
This essay puts forward a reformulation of the federal government's aging policy and is intended to bring out the diversity of policy processes that operate in this field of political action. Four policy arenas are identified: the large‐new, large‐old, small‐new, and small‐old. Applying this typology, it becomes apparent that the existing Canadian age‐policy literature has been mostly concerned with just one of these four categories, namely the l…

Symbolic politics and white house conferences on aging
Power and Illness
The Liberalization of American Protestantism
Old Age Associations in National Politics
The past decade has seen an unprecedented outpouring of federal laws, executive orders and new appropriations intended to benefit the elderly. A frequently overlooked, but quite significant, factor in this development has been the increased organized activity on the part of senior citizens themselves. In marked contrast to the old age groups of an earlier period, the elderly in recent years have coalesced behind groups with a high level of politi…
Organizational Stress and Adaptation to Changing Political Status
The Growth of Political Activism in the National Council of Churches
It has long been recognized that interest groups, formed in many cases for nonpolitical ends, have manifested an almost “inevitable gravitation toward government.” Truman has noted that modern industrial life involves disruptions of social equilibria established in an earlier and simpler era, and that interest group leaders, in an effort to restore some degree of social balance, turn to government as a mediating agent
