Federalism and State Legislative Opposition to the Affordable Care Act: the Political Value of Legal Strategy
Federalism and State Legislative Opposition to the Affordable Care Act: The Political Value of Legal Strategy ILARIA DI GIOIA A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Birmingham City University February 2018 Faculty of Business, Law and Social Sciences ii Acknowledgments This dissertation is the result of four years of intense research and study. I have, throughout these years, taken significant time away from family and friends to be able to concentrate and arrive to the end of this journey. I could not have succeeded without their support and understanding. I am especially grateful to my other half, Aqeel, who always finds the way to cheer me up and to my parents, Aldo and Milena, who believed in me and provided the financial means to begin this extraordinary journey. This dissertation would never have been completed without the generous support of Birmingham City University that awarded a three years Graduate Teaching Assistant bursary and funding to attend at least five conferences abroad. I would also like to thank the American Politics Group of the Political Science Association and Prof. Philip Davies who believed in my project and funded a very productive research trip to the headquarters of the National Conference of State Legislature (NCSL) in Denver, CO. My data collection would have been much more difficult without access to the StateNet database kindly accorded to me by Richard Cauchi, Health Program Director at NCSL. A special debt of gratitude must be expressed to my supervisor Dr. Anne Richardson Oakes, always present and ready to offer invaluable insights and suggestions. -
