CHAPTER 6 ‘But It Is My Habit to Read the Times’
Theorising Media and Practice
Although practice theory has been a mainstay of social theory for nearly three decades, so far it has had very limited impact on media studies. This book draws on the work of practice theorists such as Wittgenstein, Foucault, Bourdieu, Barth and Schatzki and rethinks the study of media from the perspective of practice theory. Drawing on ethnographic case studies from places such as Zambia, India, Hong Kong, the United States, Britain, Norway and …

Galileo's new mathematical philosophy
Galileo's earliest mathematical work, on problems originating in literature and the arts, is closely related, thematically, to his late mathematical philosophy and the beginnings of modern physics. It is suggested that a key role in the transition from the early work to the late work, in which once seemingly isolated observations about the arts came to be seen as illustrations of a general and universal theory about the world, was played by one o…
The Contemporary Presidency
The George W. Bush administration has aggressively advanced claims of presidential supremacy in American government. We use data from surveys to explore the reactions to these claims on the part of three groups of governmental elites and the general public. Responses are shaped by partisanship and ideology, which overwhelm institutional loyalties. Democrats are generally unified in opposing practices that expand presidential power beyond establis…

The Fate of ‘Big Government’ in the United States
Big government in the United States has never been as expansiveas the big state abroad. Whatever its scope, there is little evidence that the days of big government are numbered. Among both the public and organized interests there is at once antagonism toward big government and yet consistent support for many of the protections it affords, including those provided by the U.S. federal government's largest, and sure to get larger, social programs. …

The Price of Redemption
Health Care and the Hill
Before us is the question of whether or not the 103rd Congress will manage to do what no other U.S. Congress has ever accomplished: the enactment of a comprehensive reform of the way in which health care services are financed in the United States. Does a social science perspective give us a reason to believe that 1994 will be a legislative year that is different from all others? Conventional wisdom might well suggest a simple answer: “no.” Given …
The Plymouth Church and the Evolution of Puritan Religious Culture
WI HEN Plymouth's earliest settlers wrote about religion, Sthey often turned away from their current struggle to maintain a small community on the remote margins of the Puritan world and instead looked to their immediate past or to the future they would bequeath. William Bradford devotes the most stirring and dramatic portions of his History of Plymouth Plantation to the Pilgrims' long years of suffering and exile they moved from England to the N…
Institutional Change and the Health Politics of the 1990s
In the 1970s, Canada implemented its new health care financing system while the United States considered reform but failed to act. Reform debate in the 1990s must be informed by the correct lessons of the 1970s and an understanding of the subsequent changes in American government. The different Canadian and U.S. experiences had more to do with prevailing institutional arrangements than enduring societal characteristics. Since then, U.S. instituti…
The Presidency and Organized Interests
Studies of the relationship between the presidency and organized interests generally focus on presidential assistants and their communications with the interest group community. I take a different perspective. Based on presidential strategic interests and choices illuminated for several administrations through interviews with White House officials, four kinds of interest group liaison are identified: governing party, consensus building, outreach,…
