State Covid ‐19 Policy Configurations and Registered Nurse Employment Recovery
RN employment rebounded unevenly across the states of the U.S. after the acute phase of COVID‐19. We examine how 2021 state COVID‐19 policy mixes across six domains were associated with registered nurse (RN) employment recovery in 2022: telehealth expansion, early prescription refill flexibility, cost relief (cost‐sharing + vaccine cost relief), paid sick leave, mask mandates, and vaccine mandates. Using 51 jurisdictions (50 states plus the Distr…
Age at First Dental Visit of Preschool Children Utilizing Public Sector Dental Services in Southeast Queensland, Australia
Few children accessed public dental care by the recommended age of first visit. While LtL substantially improved early attendance, equity gaps persisted, highlighting the need to strengthen early-referral pathways and parent/carer awareness of the recommended timing for a first dental visit
Differentiated pathways for enhancing green innovation quality in the automotive industry guided by ESG frameworks and energy policies
The automotive manufacturing industry, a key pillar sector, is increasingly guided toward enhancing green innovation quality through low carbon economy principles under ESG frameworks. This study employs a mixed-method approach combining Necessary Condition Analysis (NCA) and fuzzy set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA), utilizing a sample of 301 Chinese automotive manufacturing firms to establish an environmental, social, and governance (E…
Configurations for High-Quality Environmental Disclosure in China's Dual Carbon Era
Amid growing global commitments to carbon neutrality and sustainable development, heavy-polluting enterprises worldwide are undergoing a critical transition toward low-carbon operations, highlighting the essential role of environmental information disclosure systems in monitoring and guiding corporate environmental performance. This study investigates how environmental regulation, market development, and corporate governance structures interact t…
The impact of higher rent levels on private health insurance enrollment
This exploratory empirical study proffers and empirically examines the following two hypotheses: the higher the monthly rent levels being charged for apartments, the lower the percent of the population age 18 years to age 65 that opts to obtain private (whether group or individual) health insurance: and the greater the percentage growth rate of median household income, the greater the growth in the capacity to purchase health insurance. Panel 2SL…
An enhanced refresher on discounted net present value computations with an additional focus on risk and uncertainty
Discounted present value (DPV) calculations have appeared in textbooks as well as numerous peer-reviewed journal articles. Such articles address a wide variety of topics/issues, ranging from migration to educational pursuit to investment in new plant and equipment to the NFL draft. Recognizing the remarkably versatile and useful tools that the DPV concepts are to valuation and intelligent decision-making, some years ago, the Harvard Business Revi…
Mixed ownership reform, political connections, and overinvestment
The study discovers that mixed ownership reform aimed at enhancing the performance and resource allocation efficiency of state-owned enterprises may have unintended consequences in China. When the nature of state-owned control remains unchanged, there is a risk of increased overinvestment due to misaligned interests between state-owned equity representatives and companies. This incentive can be mitigated by introducing nonstate shareholders with …
Book One
1. To pursue and grasp the order proper to each and every thing, 1 and then indeed to see or explain the order of the whole by which this world is held together and ruled 2 —that, Zenobius, is extremely rare and difficult for men to do....
Book Two
1. After an interval of just a few days, Alypius came. The sunrise was utterly brilliant, and the splendor of the sky and a pleasant temperature (insofar as that is possible in those places during the winter) beckoned us to descend upon the meadow, which we used quite often and with some familiarity....
The difference theology makes
Because the distinction between mendacium dicere and mentiri is taken from a pre-Christian text on grammar, Utopia's opening margin note about a “theological difference” between uttering a falsehood and lying has long been seen as ironic or an instance of playful misdirection. Without denying these conclusions, this essay argues that the distinction is theological insofar as it reflects the theology of St. Augustine, especially as presented in hi…
The Cultural Left and the Reagan Era
Nick Witham makes an important contribution to our understanding of American political culture in the 1980s. He examines a group of intellectuals, journalists, and filmmakers who, deeply critical of Ronald Reagan's policies in Central America, sought to inform and mobilize a complacent public. Witham's main argument is that these cultural producers not only reflected a politics of opposition but also helped shape “the political processes” of that…
Laws, Men and Machines
First published in 1990, Laws, Men and Machines is an original interpretation of the lasting influence that Newtonian mechanics has had on the design and operation of the American political system. The author argues that it is this mechanistic tradition that now instinctively shapes the way we conceive of, analyse, and evaluate American politics, and that the Newtonian conception of the world still finds expression in the 'checks and balances' of…

Political Leadership
Political leadership is afflicted by an enduring split between the biographical idiosyncrasies of individual leaders and the specialist contributions from an array of social science disciplines. This new study is designed to establish an improved balance between this confusing duality of approaches. It engages with an expansive range of empirical, theoretical, and interpretive research into the issue of leadership but does so in a way that ensure…

International leadership
Chapter 10 opens up the international dimension to consider the wider implications of this sphere to the possible meanings, sources, and iterations of leadership provision. Moving away from the focus on individual and state-centred leaders, the analysis first assesses the different dimensions and problematic issues of the international sector before moving on to consider a selection from the variety of contextualized leaderships in this sphere. T…

Barack Obama and the Calculus of Presidential Ambiguity
The 2008 US presidential election brought victory to a largely inexperienced and untested politician who had offered himself as both a symbolic register of social change and an agency of transformative action. President Obama's campaign for re-election in 2012 prompted an intensive period of retrospection and reassessment into what the preceding four years had revealed about both the Obama phenomenon and the complex systemic environment with whic…
P1-236 Habitual nutrient intakes during early pregnancy of women living in Ireland
At no point in the life cycle is nutrition more important than before and during pregnancy. Diet is a major environmental factor influencing the development of the embryo and fetus, while maintaining maternal health. Impaired development in utero may “programme” the fetus for developing metabolic diseases in adulthood. The aim of the present study was to examine maternal nutrient intakes during early pregnancy. 257 healthy women were recruited fr…

Bringing Realism to American Liberalism
Despite being a period of reputed liberal ascendancy and settlement in the United States, the 1950s also marked a time of considerable uncertainty, not least in the matter of America's own identity in relation to the rest of the world. Louis Hartz's quintessential depiction of US development threw into high relief the problematic nature of a liberalism that fluctuated between the two poles of principled withdrawal and transformative engagement. T…
The Four Predicaments of American Liberalism
The presidential campaigns of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have indicated an apparent resurgence in American liberalism. More significantly, they have underlined both the highly problematic nature of the liberal legacy within the Democratic Party and the difficulties of mobilising liberal themes in the battle of ideas that characterises the conduct of politics in the United States. The article examines the difficulty of the issue by reference…
The presidential dynamics of leadership decline in contemporary British politics
The presidential analogy has provided many explanatory insights into the contemporary development of the British premiership. Nevertheless, the usage of this analytical device is almost invariably confined to the establishment and consolidation of leadership. This article demonstrates that the presidential dimension has comparable utility in accounting for the erosion and decline of leadership. In examining the Blair premiership in relation to th…
American Credo
American society may be hostile to the thought of ideologies, but it possesses a sophisticated but little understood ability to engage in deep conflicts over political ideas, while at the same time reducing adversarial positions to legitimate derivatives of American history and development. This book asks how this occurs; how the sources, traditions, and usages of core ideas and their derivative compounds animate political discourse and structure…
Social Movement Organizations Beyond The Beltway
This article utilizes a unique data set on a nationally representative sample of one social movement industry (groups working for peace) operating in the U.S. during the late 1980s. The data include the full spectrum of SMOs, which we divide into organizational domains that roughly parallel prior research and currently available secondary data sources: (1) numerous, but generally quite small groups that operate without tax-exempt status; (2) smal…

Presidential Attribution as an Agency of Prime Ministerial Critique in a Parliamentary Democracy
The allusion to presidentialism in relation to the status, role and meaning of a prime minister's position is almost invariably skewed towards positive, purposive and expansive interpretations of strong executive authority. This study examines the negative and critical dimensions of the presidential attribution, and analyses the nature of its appeal as a device for organising and rationalising political dissent. The incidence and conditions of it…

The Implications of Scarcity for Governance in Africa
Despite the variety in African state forms, the observer is struck by a prevailing paradox- that is, the modern African state is overcentralized and consumes extensive resources, yet is "soft" and lacks the ability to carry out its ambitious programs. What explains this apparent paradox? Policy analysis, which assumes relatively strong and autonomous state institutions, must adapt to Third World conditions if it is to promote governability under …

Colonialism and journalism in Ireland
Irish journalism developed during the 19th century at a time of tremendous change. While journalists were involved in the debates about nationalism, both as commentators and in many cases activists, they also developed a journalism practice that corresponded to the professional norms of journalists in Britain and the United States. It would appear that the middle‐class nature of Irish journalists meant there was a dual pressure towards profession…
