Comparative Perspectives on American Political Development
IN THIS ISSUE... Volume 19 Number 2 Spring/Summer 2009 Comparative Perspectives on American Political Development Richard Franklin Bensel Department of Government, Cornell University I write to you as the 19th president of the section, a section now mature enough to have spanned a generation. We, as the Jefferson Airplane once sang, “are no longer young.” But we are also not old. We are somewhere in between, neither idling at a crossroads nor hurtling down a freeway. The section has its share of challenges but seems to be in good shape. But this is not a “state of the section” essay. Instead, I write as one who, along with the rest of you, have watched Politics and History develop over the years. We have, as I will describe below, become a bit of a tribe but our tribalism has always been less developed than most of our peer sections. And this is all to the good. A tension lurks at the center of most In In this Issue academicIN life, a tension between the sociological imperative of a profession and the individualizing, creative spirit of scholarship.

Challenging Authority: How Ordinary People Change America (Polemics)
Challening_Pbk.qxd 6/16/08 12:09 PM Page 1 PIVEN HISTORY • POLITICS “Challenging Authority is like a Molotov cocktail in an elegant crystal decanter. Frances Fox Piven deploys metic- ulous reasoning and wide-ranging research to show that social change comes ultimately from the disruptive challenging actions of ordinary people—strikes, sit-ins, riots. Challenging Authority challenges all of us to re-think our notions of who makes history and how. It may be Piven’s best work yet.” —Barbara Ehrenreich, author of Nickel and Dimed challenging “Frances Fox Piven has done it again! With undiminished authority, she offers a sweeping examination of disruptive movements at key moments in American history, from the revolutionary period to the present. authority Her examination of the relations between disruption and electoral politics underscores an implicit criticism of both ‘radical’ visions and academic research that isolate social movements from politics. In their place, she reveals the intricate, contradictory, but ultimately democratizing impact of disrupting established insti- tutional routines. This penetrating analysis offers sage advice for those who are discouraged by the current HOW ORDINARY PEOPLE CHANGE AMERICA reversion of democracy in these times of imperial expansion and threats to civil liberties. Thirty-five years after the publication of her seminal Regulating the Poor, this is vintage Piven empowered with new insights.” —Sidney Tarrow, Cornell University “This quintessentially Piven-esque book eloquently traces how ordinary people, whose efforts to advance FRANCES FOX PIVEN their rights and interests are in normal times limited by our political system, have taken it upon themselves authority to correct injustices. -

Presentation to the Academic Senate Coordinating Committee UCSF Committee on Library and Scholarly Communication • Overview • Open Access Primer • Google Books Settlement Article (“Hurtling Towards the Finish Line”) • Supplemental Academic Author Objections to the Google Book Search Settlement • Letter from Larry Pitts Regarding Public Access Policies for Science and Technology Funding Agencies Across the Federal Government Overview LIBRARY SPACE The Academic Senate plays a central role in advising on the allocation, reallocation or redesign of library space. MISSION BAY CAMPUS Currently, there are two small libraries at Mission Bay - in Genentech Hall and the Community Center. The Genentech Hall Library is available 24/7 but that space will be repurposed into a Teaching Lab once the funds are raised. Even with both libraries the spaces are inadequate for the growing Mission Bay population. COLASC participated in the development of a Long Range Plan that outlined the need for a larger library to serve the population working at Mission Bay now and the expected growth with the opening of the Medical Center in 2014. The plan was developed with COLASC and reviewed by the EVC/Provost Washington prior to his departure. We are asking for Senate endorsement before forwarding the document officially to the EVCP. PARNASSUS CAMPUS 24/7 STUDENT STUDY SPACE (Hearst Reading Room) In FY 10 Parnassus and Mission Bay Library hours were reduced to address a 13% budget reduction. At the same time the Library began looking at the possibility of opening part of the Parnassus Library as a 24/7 study area. Plans are underway to raise funds to install a bathroom for late evening/overnight use. -

Partisanship, Dysfunction, and Racial Fears: the New Normal in Health Care Policy?
Health Care Reform at the State and National Level Partisanship, Dysfunction, and Racial Fears: The New Normal in Health Care Policy? James A. Morone Brown University Abstract Partisan politics snarled both the passage and the implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). This essay examines partisanship’seffects on health policy and asks whether the ACA experience was an exception or the new political normal. Partisanship itself has been essential for American democracy, but American institu- tions were not designed to handle its current form—ideologically pure, racially sorted, closely matched parties playing by “Gingrich rules” before a partisan media. The new partisanship injects three far-reaching changes into national health policy: an unprec- edented lack of closure, a decline in the traditional political arts of compromise and bargaining, and a failure to define and debate alternative health policies. We can get a better sense of how far partisanship reaches by turning to state health policies. The highly charged national debate has migrated into some of the states; others retain the traditional politics of compromise and problem solving. There are preliminary indi- cations that the difference lies in the dynamics of race and ethnicity. Keywords Affordable Care Act (ACA), partisanship, race Let me warn you in the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the spirit of party. The disorders and miseries which result . always distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration. —George Washington, “Farewell Address,” September 1796 If we are able to stop Obama on this, it will be his Waterloo. It will break him. —Senator Jim DeMint, July 2009 I thank Bradford H. -
REDSKINS” Case, Blackhorse V
The “REDSKINS” Case, Blackhorse v. Pro Football (con’d): To the Federal Circuit or a District Court? Further to the e-mail earlier today, the suggestion has been made that the Redskins Organization could appeal to the Federal Circuit, an action that would take one year to 18 months to finish. However, the Redskins Organization also has the option to go to the District Court where it could provide evidence to support its position which could add a considerable time period to the court proceedings. The attachment to the pdf version of this note includes a copy of15 USC § 1071 (the statutory scheme for an appeal to the Federal Circuit or seeking an action in a District Court), as well as the original note and the full opinion of the Patent Office. Regards, Hal June 19, 2014 15 USCS § 1071 15 USC § 1071.
