Blending Genres, Bending Time
Western steampunk uses fantastic images of technology-out-of-time to create critical commentary on the notion of progress and the inherent tension between “civilization” and nature. As a hybrid subgenre it uses the steampunk aesthetic to introduce technology-as-spectacle—breathtaking, larger than life, focus rather than backdrop—and traffics in fetishism, making technology the stuff of fantasy and obsession. Through the steampunk Western, we see …
Don Meinig as a Teacher
DON MEINIG AS AN UNDERGRADUATE INSTRUCTOR (BY JOHN WESTERN) It is abundantly clear that Donald Meinig, though so very eminent a research scholar, never skimped his undergraduate teaching.

Barriers to employment among out-of-school youth
The determinants of paternity establishment and child support award rates among unmarried women
The Implications of Demographic-Specific Inflation Rates for Trends in Real Educational Wage Differentials
We use data from consumer expenditure surveys to investigate the impact on trends in real wage differentials of using group-specific price indexes. We find that inflation rates decrease monoton-ically with the education of the household head throughout the 1970s and early 1980s, and real educational wage differentials, calculated using education-specific price indexes, widened somewhat more than nominal differentials. We also find that difference…
Ranking States Using Child Support Data
Data from the federal Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) are often used by policy makers and others to measure relative state child support performance. In this article, we assess the limitations of several OCSE measures and compare them with a new index of state performance, calculated from survey data. This index is conceptually a more accurate metric of performance, in that it is comprehensive and controls for differences across states…
