  • Privatization of Wastewater Treatment Plants

    Open AccessCal Clark, John G Heilman et al.ARTICLEPublic Works Management & Policy1997References: 1

    Burgeoning budgetary pressures have created considerable interest for the privatization of public services. Privatization is usually justified in terms of the cost effectiveness that laissez-faire economics impose on the private sector. Yet, this model has come under challenge in the corporate world because businesses often must pursue other goals than just cost minimization, such as product quality, flexibility of production, and long-term allia…

  • Privatization

    Open AccessCal Clark, John G Heilman et al.ARTICLEReview of Policy Research1995References: 3

    The growing fiscal crisis confronting governments in the United States and elsewhere has generated increasing interest in the “privatization” of government functions by contracting out to private businesses. In essence, arguments contend that privatization saves money because the private sector is more efficient in minimizing costs than is the public sector due to the discipline of the market, or laissez‐faire economics. Ironically, this privatiz…

  • Water Policy Networks in the United States

    John G Heilman, Gerald W Johnson et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Politics1994Cited by: 1References: 10

    Evidence suggests that the US water sector is characterised by multiple arrays but not an overarching sector‐wide arrangement encompassing all the major decision‐making participants. The water policy field is marked by considerable fragmentation in structure, as well as by largely‐uncoordinated policy. Several forces ‐ including ‘metapolicy’ shifts, professionalism and alterations in professional dominance, and the tension between advocates of mo…

  • System and Process in Capital‐intensive Privatization

    Open AccessJohn G Heilman, Gerald W JohnsonARTICLEReview of Policy Research1989References: 15

    Capital‐intensive privatization (CIP) is an option for infrastructure project development. Advocates claim that CIP generates cost savings through efficiencies inherent in the coordinated design, construction, and operation of facilities. The present paper assesses these claims in the field of municipal wastewater treatment facilities (WIWs). It presents case‐study results and aggregate data on seven of the first privatized WIWs, and on seven com…

  • Metapolicy Transition and Policy Implementation

    Gerald W Johnson, John G HeilmanARTICLEPublic Administration Review1987References: 1

    Mandated local implementation of national policy poses a complex issue. What happens to the decisionmaking and implementation processes at the local level of government when broad change in policy direction occurs at the national level? The importance of this question depends on the extent to which local government officials are responsible for implementing policy which the national government has helped to form in some substantial way. Local gov…

  • Serpent in Eden

    Walter W Isle, Fred Hobson et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Southern History1975

    appearance in 1920 of H. L. Mencken's scathing essay about the intellectual and cultural impoverishment of the South, The Sahara of the Bozart, set off a firestorm of reaction in the region that continued unabated for much of the next decade. In Serpent in Eden, Mencken scholar Fred Hobson examines Mencken's love-hate relationship with the South. He explores not only Mencken's savage criticism of the region but also his efforts to encourage south…

  • Research Note on Political Correlates of Voter Participation

    Open AccessGerald W JohnsonARTICLEAmerican Political Science Review1971Cited by: 3References: 4

    This note attempts to show the explanatory limits of current generalizations about political participation behavior by analyzing a deviant case (West Virginia). Voter participation patterns in West Virginia cannot be explained in terms of traditional research findings based on socioeconomic variables. The present study therefore suggests a research framework that complements the customary socioeconomic and political output analysis. Its thesis, b…

    T HIS, the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, is the legal basis of freedom of the press in this country; for while the amendment is binding upon Congress alone, the same prohibition, in substantially the same language, is found in the constitutions of all the states. Most of the states add some such phrase as being responsible for the abuse of that liberty, 1 but the variation is in phraseology only, having never led to an…
