“She’s a Family Member”
Introduction: This study examines whether being a client in the Northwest Ohio Pathways HUB program reduces stress and improves mental wellbeing for perinatal mothers. The HUB works to improve health by connecting mothers to community health workers (CHWs) who assess mothers' risk factors and connect them to evidence-based care pathways to reduce known risks associated with adverse birth outcomes. Methods: A one-time survey of 119 mothers in the …
Anatomy of agency capture
Recent crises and disasters in regulated industries have renewed scholarly attention to regulatory capture. The present research incorporates and builds on these efforts by creating a typology to help researchers and practitioners organize the capture literature. The typology has two dimensions: the degree of coordination within the regulated industry, theagentsof capture; and the scope of capture within the agency and elected officials, thetarge…
Scoundrel or Scapegoat? A Reassessment of the Office of Thrift Supervision’s Performance Before the 2008 Financial Crisis
This research attempts to determine whether Congress was justified in shutting down the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. I do so by comparing its performance with that of the other federal banking regulators: the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), and the Federal Reserve. Results show that the OTS is not consistently the worst performer acr…
The President's War Agenda
Missing from recent presidential agenda‐setting scholarship is an examination of the president's impact on the agenda for war. To fill this gap, I conduct case studies of William McKinley's and George W. Bush's rhetoric before the Spanish‐American and Iraq wars, respectively. Specifically, these presidents' agendas are examined through the lens of Jeffrey Tulis's rhetorical presidency model. While McKinley struggled against limitations on preside…
Window of Opportunity? Internet Gambling in Canada
This article investigates the current condition and possible future of Internet gambling in Canada. We apply Howlett's (1998) refinement of Kingdon's “policy windows” theory to examine four windows of opportunity through which Internet gambling might be placed on the Canadian policy agenda. We conclude that Internet gambling is unlikely to reach the agenda through a routine means; instead, the issue might be recognized by policy-makers through al…
The Options for Internet Gambling in Canada
Globally, online gambling is now at least a $15.5 billion a year market (James 2006). Currently, there are around 2,000 online gambling sites around the world, many of which are operating in small countries such as Antigua and Barbuda (537 sites) and Costa Rica (474 sites) (BBC 2007). Estimates suggest that U.S. residents spend more money on online gambling than any other public, supplying more than half of all revenues while increasing their act…
