Scholars became more alert to the way in the policy agenda is constituted by new ideas and arguments, such as a new concept about the environment, or new evidence about the harm of certain human behaviours, such as tobacco use, from which rapid shifts in policy can result. The renaissance of political economy Economics and politics have cross-fertilized more strongly in recent years. Conversely, when individuals perceive that their opinion is less popular or losing popularity, they are less likely to voice it in public.

Policy-making in the federal executive branch. Comparative political economy is different from the long-running historical institutionalist approach to comparative public policy, whose adherents examined the impact of embedded practices on decision-making see Hall , though there are linkages in the varieties of capitalism debate Hall and Soskice , which seeks to understand how varied institutions in capitalism and associated regulation regimes affect the public policies, which in turn affects how the economy functions.

Chicago: University of Chicago Press. Research indicates that people fear isolation in their small social circles more than they do in the population at large. The perceived minority then faces the threat and fear of isolation from society unless they conform. Individuals claimed that they were more likely to voice their opinions to non-Basques, suggesting that they have a "fear of isolation" in regards to fellow Basques. Rothschild, Social Science Quarterly , , Comparative studies of policy agendas. This book explores alternative literary modernities mostly by highlighting the distinct ways in which literary and cultural print modernities outside Europe evince the repurposing of European systems and cultures of print and further deconstruct their perceived universality. Of particular interest is the extent to which policy making is constrained by the bargaining between capital and labour. To engage undergraduate students in this area, a new type of textbook is required. Another criticism of the spiral of silence research is that the research designs do not observe the movement in the spiral over time.

It is a study of a particular social institution that, despite its explosion onto the mainstream cultural scene, has surprisingly eluded social-scientific inquiry. Demographically, the group that has been most caught up in the fitness movement are young, single, college-educated Americans living in large city centers. As a study of a particular social world, this research will examine the localized social world of the gym and its young male members, focusing on how their interactions get patterned into negotiated order.

    1 ‘It Can’t Be a Lie’: The Wire as Breaching Experiment Joshua Page & Joe Soss University of Minnesota The Politics of HBOs’ The Wire: Everything is Connected (2015), Eds. Shirin Deylami and Jonathan Havercroft. New York: Routledge, Ch.1, pp. 11-40. The five seasons of The Wire are widely recognized as a landmark event in the history of media efforts to portray life in America’s poor, racially segregated communities. The show was especially momentous for scholars, such as us, who study urban poverty and the various ways authorities work to manage its problems and populations. Here, finally, was a dramatic depiction of the world we knew through our research and tried to convey in our teaching and public engagement. Here, finally, was a nuanced, humane account of the lives and lived realities—of cops and drug dealers and teachers and addicts and students and parents and more—that intersect and shape one another in the most marginalized neighborhoods of our nation’s cities. Here, finally, was a wildly popular, critically acclaimed, nationally televised cry of dissent from the “thriving cultural industry of fear of the poor, led by such television programs as ‘America’s Most Wanted’ and ‘Cops.’”1 More even than most documentaries, The Wire offers a realistic depiction of life inside the “hyperghetto,” a social space defined by stark racial segregation, severely diminished jobs and social services, inadequate schools, rampant poverty, open-air drug markets, widespread housing foreclosures, and pervasive depression and dilapidation.2 From the show’s inception, 1 Loïc Wacquant, Punishing the Poor: The Neoliberal Government of Social Insecurity (Durham: Duke University Press, 2009) 131-32.

  • Paper Presented at the 2012 Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association, Vancouver, BC, Canada
    Paper presented at the 2012 Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association, Vancouver, BC, Canada Using Cases as Triggers for Teachers’ Thinking about Practice: A Comparison of Responses to Animations and Videos Patricio Herbst1 Karl W. Kosko University of Michigan University of Michigan Abstract This study compared conversations among groups of teachers of high school geometry that had been triggered by either a video or an animation representation of instruction and managed with an open-ended agenda. All triggers represented scenarios that departed from what was hypothesized as normative. We used as the dependent variable the proportion of modal statements about instructional practice made by a group, which we argue is a good quantitative indicator that the statement appeals to the group’s knowledge of the norms of practice. Animations and videos produced similar proportion of modal statements, but the types of modal statements differed—with animations being associated with more statements of probability and obligation and videos being associated with more statements of inclination. 1 The work reported here has been supported in part by National Science Foundation grants REC-0133619, ESI-0353285, and DRL-0918425 to the first author. All opinions are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the views of the Foundation. The authors acknowledge the assistance of Annick Rougee in coding the data. Introduction This paper is concerned with a methodological question in research on teaching: How can we access teaching knowledge that can be tacit in nature? Our purpose here is to contribute to validate the technique of utilizing open-ended agendas for group discussions of cartoon-based classroom scenarios, by benchmarking those against the more common use of videotaped episodes.

  • Detrivialization As a Strategy to Challenge Organizational Groupthink
    Detrivialization as a Strategy to Challenge Organizational Groupthink Salaheddine Mnasri and Stavros Papakonstantinidis The American University of the Middle East [email protected] [email protected] DOI: 10.34190/EJKM.18.03.003 Abstract: This paper aims to contribute to the literature on knowledge construction and knowledge sharing within the field of organizational communication. The research underlines the importance of exploring human learning contextually, descriptively, interpretively, and inductively. Through a participant-observer methodological approach, the study contributes to the literature by introducing detrivialization as a strategy to explore ’participants’ rhetoric related to their organizational procedures. The paper describes a case study that took place for 18 months in a cancer research lab in Belgium, where employees seemed unable to question several taken-for-granted practices. The present research primarily reveals the consequences of trivialization, when the rationale of essential organizational practices go unnoticed until observer- participant challenges the status quo. Also, the study highlights the outcomes of the detrivialization approach, which triggers unprecedented knowledge. Finally, the paper introduces the (de)trivialization dynamic model, which can depict the consequences of opening black-boxes in organizational contexts. This research is a new approach in organizational ethnomethodology, revisiting ’Garfinkel’s (1967) breaching experiment to describe science in action. The suggested model offers a methodological approach for exploring trivialized organizational dynamics and challenging groupthink. Detrivialization is an opposite approach to trivialization, to offer a new debate topic to scholars aiming to conduct ethnographic research and discourse analysis in organizational communication. Keywords: Detrivialization, knowledge construction, knowledge sharing, groupthink, discourse analysis, organizational culture, organizational communication.

  • Moral Reasoning and Decision Making 2017
    Moral reasoning and decision making 2017 Course Organiser: Dr. Matteo Colombo Email: [email protected] Office: D 236 Website: https://mteocolphi.wordpress.com/ Course Description Why do we tip at restaurants, but never at shoe shops? Why do we find repugnant to have sex with siblings? Why don’t people wear shorts when they get married? Why do we get angry if somebody jumps a queue? Why is it more likely that people throw an empty can of coke on the street when the street is already dirty? Why, when we get up in the morning, don’t we even consider to be nudist for the day? Why did women and children aboard the Titanic were more likely to survive than males? What if a person had no social contact during the first years of her life? In this course we shall explore these types of questions by intermingling philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience. Our focus will be on the psychological and philosophical foundations of judgement and decision-making in the moral/social domain. Background Prior familiarity with the material discussed during the course is not assumed. However, students will benefit from having the following background: (1) A previous philosophy course with a substantial ethics component. (2) A previous philosophy course with a substantial component in philosophy of science. (3) At least one course in psychology or a related human science. Learning Goals Upon successful completion of the course, you will be able: 1) To summarize, explain and compare (using specific examples) the central theories and arguments in the field of contemporary moral psychology, in particular about the relationship between moral behaviour, expectations, judgement, emotion and reason; 2) To apply your understanding and insight about current theories of social norms (e.g.

    SOC496H1S: SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY University of Toronto Term: Spring 2015 – Lecture Date/Time: Tuesday, 1-3pm – Location: SS2101 INSTRUCTOR Geoff Wodtke Office: Room 394, 725 Spadina Avenue Office Hours: Tuesday 3:30-5:30pm or by appointment Email: [email protected] COURSE DESCRIPTION Social life hinges to a significant degree on perceptions and beliefs, fears and desires, and antipathies and affections. Social events can pass without notice, seem like a nuisance, or evoke the most intense reactions, convictions, and anxieties. This course explores questions that lie at the intersection of sociology and psychology. How and why do individuals identify themselves with different social groups? How do beliefs, values, and norms shape social interactions? What institutions, events, and structures in turn influence beliefs, values, and norms? How do intergroup stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination develop and evolve? What engenders social conflict and aggression? We will explore how psychological theories can help explain a wide range of social phenomena, such as public opinion, stereotyping and prejudice, domination and subordination, and social movements. At the same time, we will explore how power relations, material inequalities, institutions, and other social forces can help explain psychological phenomena like identity, perception, emotion, and decision making. PREREQUISITES The prerequisite to take this course is completion of a 300 level or higher SOC course. Students without this prerequisites will be removed at any time if discovered. COURSE EVALUATION This is a writing (and reading) intensive course. There are no conventional tests, and your overall grades will be based solely on the following four writing assignments: Short Reaction Essays: Due in class each week (starting January 13th) Each week, students will write a short reaction essay summarizing their thoughts about the assigned readings for that week.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was pert of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
