    EXPLORING AN ALTERNATIVE PUBLIC RELATIONS FRAMEWORK FOR THE PUBLIC SECTOR A Dissertation Presented to The Graduate Faculty of The University of Akron In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Andrea M. Ferraro May, 2015 EXPLORING AN ALTERNATIVE PUBLIC RELATIONS FRAMEWORK FOR THE PUBLIC SECTOR Andrea M. Ferraro Dissertation Approved: Accepted: _____________________________ _____________________________ Advisor Interim Department Chair Dr. Raymond W. Cox III Dr. John C. Green _____________________________ _____________________________ Committee Member Dean of the College Dr. Francois K. Doamekpor Dr. Chand Midha _____________________________ _____________________________ Committee Member Interim Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Ghazi Falah Dr. Rex Ramiser _____________________________ _____________________________ Committee Member Date Dr. Namkyung Oh _____________________________ Committee Member Dr. Julia A. Spiker ii ABSTRACT Public relations is a critical function of a democracy as government must create policies and programs, generate awareness, inform, encourage input and engagement, solicit support, and measure results. Furthermore, government has a responsibility to protect and promote public interest. Thus, public administrators must practice public relations. However, existing models developed in the corporate context make practicing public relations in government challenging. This study examines the differences between the public and private sectors and advocates a new public relations framework, allowing government to practice public relations more effectively. Although research has discovered differences between the two sectors, there has been little attempt to create an alternative model of public relations for government use. This is important research since new models of governance and administration have engaged citizenship at the root of their practice and public administrators are tasked with increasing public participation in environments characterized by cynicism and distrust.

  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

Ettensohn This dissertation by Derek M. Ettensohn is accepted in its present form by the Department of English as satisfying the dissertation requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Date ___________________ _________________________ Olakunle George, Advisor Recommended to the Graduate Council Date ___________________ _________________________ Timothy Bewes, Reader Date ___________________ _________________________ Ravit Reichman, Reader Approved by the Graduate Council Date ___________________ __________________________________ Peter Weber, Dean of the Graduate School iii Abstract of “Globalism, Humanitarianism, and the Body in Postcolonial Literature” by Derek M. Ettensohn, Ph.D., Brown University, May 2014. This project evaluates the twinned discourses of globalism and humanitarianism through an analysis of the body in the postcolonial novel. In offering celebratory accounts of the promises of globalization, recent movements in critical theory have privileged the cosmopolitan, transnational, and global over the postcolonial. Recognizing the potential pitfalls of globalism, these theorists have often turned to transnational fiction as supplying a corrective dose of humanitarian sentiment that guards a global affective community against the potential exploitations and excesses of neoliberalism. While authors such as Amitav Ghosh, Nuruddin Farah, and Rohinton Mistry have been read in a transnational, cosmopolitan framework––which they have often courted and constructed––I argue that their theorizations of the body contain a critical, postcolonial rejoinder to the liberal humanist tradition that they seek to critique from within.

  • Sex, Love and Feminism in the Asia Pacific
    Sex, Love and Feminism in the Asia Pacific Sex, love and feminism are three aspects of the changing gender relations that shape young people’s lives in the Asia Pacific region. With the global spread of capitalist production and neoliberal ideologies, the claim that the rest of the world’s women are treading the path to enlightenment and development forged by women in the west has been revived. This book explores that contention through a comparative analysis of the attitudes of young middle-class urbanites in ten countries: the USA, Australia, Canada, Japan, Thailand, South Korea, India, Indo- nesia, China and Vietnam. Drawing on detailed empirical research, the study de- scribes and compares attitudes towards the women’s movement, sexual relations and family arrangements in the countries considered. It explores young people’s image of feminists and what they feel the women’s movement has achieved for women and men in their country. The book discusses young people’s attitudes to controversial gender issues such as role reversal, sharing housework, abor- tion rights, same-sex sexual relations and pornography. Through a comparative analysis of the gender vocabularies by which young people understand gender issues, the book highlights the role of differences in history, culture, economics and political leadership. These influence attitudes to gender relations, the status of women and the political programs of the women’s movement in the different countries. Although there are striking parallels between countries and even across the whole sample, those similarities do not fall neatly into a simple dichotomy of the ‘west versus the rest’.

University of Texas B.A. Miami University March 2010 Committee Chair: Anne Sisson Runyan, Ph.D ABSTRACT What constitutes global civil society? Are liberal assumptions about the nature of civil society as a realm autonomous from and balancing the power of the state and market transferrable to the global level? Does global civil society necessarily represent and/or result in the promotion of liberal values? These questions guided my dissertation which attempts to challenge dominant liberal conceptualizations of global civil society. To do so, it provides two representative case studies of how domestic and transnational factions of the Religious Right, acting in concert with (or as agents of) the US state, and the political opportunity structures it has provided under conservative regimes, gain access to global policy-making forums through a reframing of international human rights discourses and practices pertaining particularly to women’s rights in order to shift them in illiberal directions.

Extending to the whole of the French Caribbean his previous work on the philosophical bases of the Haitian Revolution, Nesbitt has produced the first-ever account of the region’s writing from a consistently philosophical, as distinct from literary or historical, standpoint.’ Professor Celia Britton, University College London. -‘While Nesbitt’s work deals primarily with Caribbean and European political philosophy, his interrogations apply to more far-reaching questions involving the contemporary world order. […] The interrogations that Nesbitt’s work leads us through […] are of utmost currency in our work as scholars of the contemporary world.’ Alessandra Benedicty (CUNY), Contemporary French Civilization 39.3 (2014) -‘The book fills an important gap in francophone Caribbean studies, which […] has not previously been subject to such a rigorously philosophical critical treatment.
