  • GOVERNMENT RELATIONS in the POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION SECTOR in ONTARIO by Peter P. Constantinou a Thesis Submitted in Conformity
    GOVERNMENT RELATIONS IN THE POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION SECTOR IN ONTARIO by Peter P. Constantinou A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Theory and Policy Studies University of Toronto ©Copyright by Peter P. Constantinou, 2010 ii GOVERNMENT RELATIONS IN THE POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION SECTOR IN ONTARIO Doctor of Philosophy, 2010 Peter P. Constantinou Department of Theory and Policy Studies University of Toronto Abstract There has been little research on the government relations function within the post- secondary education sector in Ontario. This study explores this topic by reviewing the literature and collecting data from key informants in the college, university and government sector, and those who can speak about the sector associations. The study describes how the leaders of colleges and universities in Ontario perceive and conduct government relations, both as individual institutions and as a sector, and analyzes trends and potential implications. The study utilizes a pluralist model of interest group behaviour and applied the hollow-core theory to the policy community and the findings provide compelling evidence that this theory is a useful theoretical framework for understanding the nature of this policy community. This study also provides valuable insight into the hollow-core theory of pluralism. The leadership of individual colleges and universities shares a similar understanding of government relations and engage a similar approach. Individual colleges and universities work independently to lobby for capital funding and work together through their respective associations to lobby for system-wide funding and reforms. Although the presidents of individual institutions continue to lead the government relations function, the trend in the post-secondary education sector in Ontario is to invest additional resources and time in these activities.

  • From Greenspace to Greenbelt: the Role of Civil Society in Landscape Protection in the Toronto Region
    From Greenspace to Greenbelt: The Role of Civil Society in Landscape Protection in the Toronto Region By Wendy Burton A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Geography University of Toronto © Copyright by Wendy Burton 2016 From Greenspace to Greenbelt: The Role of Civil Society in Landscape Protection in the Toronto Region Wendy Burton Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Geography University of Toronto 2016 Abstract Greenspace has been increasingly identified as an important element of environmental, social and economic health, yet proponents of greenspace protection from within civil society often find themselves with limited resources in political battles with powerful pro- growth coalitions. This was the case with the three citizen-led campaigns that managed to protect progressively larger landscapes in the Toronto region, culminating with the creation of a 1.8-million-acre greenbelt. How did they do this? This study uses qualitative methods and draws on institutionalism, participation theory, and social capital approaches to examine the evolution of environmental civil society groups and how they learned to exploit governance processes to persuade state actors to break with the status quo. The study looks at how cultural understandings, historical legacies, legal institutions, planning rules and public preferences shaped the landscape of the Toronto region. The research finds that citizen environmentalists were able to use their social capital resources
