Tenuous (in)stability? Mixed policy feedback and its effects on climate policy in Australia and Canada
Policy feedback is often viewed as either reinforcing or undermining policy stability. However, it can arise in multiple ways simultaneously, creating mixed policy feedback with complex effects on policy stability. We examine how mixed policy feedback affects policy stability by developing a framework to identify within- and across-level feedbacks, and applying it to two cases of contested climate policy involving domestic carbon markets in Austr…
Agency and values for transformative change
Finding the way
Former coalmining communities are often portrayed as regressive and/or resistant to change due to deep dependence on carbon-intensive systems. Emerging research highlights the (latent) potential of post-coal affordances as endogenous social or material features that can create new political possibilities for such communities. However, affordances do not always translate into action, and post-coal transitions within and across Europe exhibit mixed…
Catholic Republicanism in America
Recently, so-called Catholic “postliberal” conservatives have condemned the American regime as fundamentally liberal and, hence, parasitic on pre-liberal institutions. I argue that this view unduly conflates liberalism and republicanism and thereby confuses an ideology with the principles of the regime. American Catholic clergy have historically condemned liberalism in favor of a Catholic republicanism. This trend began with the political thought…
The Anti-Nationalist Patriotism of Venerable Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
Scholars today regard Venerable Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen as a supporting player in the American efforts to drum up support for the Cold War; however, this view limits Sheen's influence to the years he spent on television hosting his program, Life Is Worth Living (1952-1957). Yet, by the time Sheen left his program, he had been part of public discussions of religion and American politics for almost thirty years. Before his 1930 debut as an autho…

A Covenant of the Heart
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. articulated a covenant foundation for the United States. He called this covenant the “Beloved Community.” In it, King described citizen obligations as the experience of divine love in the sacrifice of individual interests for the common good and personal atone. The Beloved Community operated outside the broader covenant tradition in American politics. Grounded in personalist theology, King conceived of the Beloved Commu…
The Cross or the Double-Cross
The Venerable and Most Reverend Fulton J. Sheen was an advocate of American Catholic patriotism and opponent to the spread of totalitarianism, especially communism. He grounded the two positions in what I call the “ecclesial foundation” in which he defined American citizenship in terms of membership in religious institutions. In Sheen's view, religious institutions provided the ultimate, spiritual ends for humankind. Therefore, the American gover…
