Brazil Rolls Back Regional Integration
Latin America's Turbulent Transitions
Over the past few years, something remarkable has occurred in Latin America. For the first time since the Sandinista Revolution in Nicaragua in the 1980s, people within the region have turned toward radical left governments - specifically in Venezuela, Bolivia, and Ecuador. Why has this profound shift taken place and how does this new, so-called Twenty-First-Century Socialism actually manifest itself? What are we to make of the often fraught rela…

Rational Choice in Medicaid Managed Care
Market-based health care policies cast patients as active decision-making consumers who are able to choose among health plans and select the highest quality and lowest priced providers. Embodied in the Consumer Assessment of Health Plans Study (CAHPS), a national policy initiative based on assumptions of rational choice, such a model has recently been extended to low income populations enrolled in the U.S. Medicaid program. This paper describes a…
Ælfric on the creation and fall of the angels

One of the most successful approaches to student understanding of the way in which these issues are identified by the public, acted upon or ignored, is the ‘issue‐attention cycle’. The cycle is first described, and then three different approaches are suggeste…

A self‐paced mastery instruction scheme in geography for a first year university course
The use of a self‐paced mastery system of instruction can help to overcome some of the problems resulting from variable educational backgrounds among first‐year geography undergraduates. The implementation of such a system at Carleton University is described, at the stages of specification, design and evaluation. The aim of ‘mastering’ subject material is achieved through a programme taken at the students’ own pace and self‐assessed. The prelimin…
