A Miscarriage of Justice
The Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, dismantling five decades of reproductive choice established in Roe v. Wade, will have a chilling, and likely tragic, impact on women’s capacity to control their own bodies and their reproductive destinies. It may also unleash an array of policy attacks or private strikes against already vulnerable publics, outside of the context of abortion. Alito’s majority opinion and…
Illegalizing” Families: State, Status, and Deportability NPS Christian Bay Best Paper Award Winner, Apsa 2018, Boston
There is a paradox within United States immigration policy. Immigration policy separates families while also promising family unity. We address this paradox by arguing that state actors use “family” as a state-granted status. The state perceives some households as families and grants them benefits, while forcing other households to live as legal strangers. Individuals may form familial relationships, but the privileges and status of family are co…
Cohering Collaborative Governance
Collaborative Platforms as a Governance Strategy
Collaborative governance is increasingly viewed as a proactive policy instrument, one in which the strategy of collaboration can be deployed on a larger scale and extended from one local context to another. This article suggests that the concept of collaborative platforms provides useful insights into this strategy of treating collaborative governance as a generic policy instrument. Building on an organization-theoretic approach, collaborative pl…
Parenting without Protection: How Legal Status Ambiguity Affects Lesbian and Gay Parenthood
Through the lens of lesbian and gay parenthood we ask how individuals who experience “legal status ambiguity”—that which emerges when legal fluctuations combine with divided attitudes, ignorance of the law, and autonomous institutional gatekeepers—exercise their legal rights and responsibilities. The results from thirty-one interviews with lesbian and gay parents in Oregon and their six adult children suggest that the state's fluctuating legal an…
State, Status, and the American Family
Imagine a world where households have to apply to be considered a family by the state. They would need to document how their domestic grouping fulfills the requirements of “family” through bank statements, passports, Social Security numbers, and perhaps even recommendations from those in their community attesting to the strength and quality of their relationships or their health and fitness. In reality, this scenario is not as far-fetched as one …
Collaborative Governance in Theory and Practice
Over the past few decades, a new form of governance has emerged to replace adversarial and managerial modes of policy making and implementation. Collaborative governance, as it has come to be known, brings public and private stakeholders together in collective forums with public agencies to engage in consensus-oriented decision making. In this article, we conduct a meta-analytical study of the existing literature on collaborative governance with …
