Community Economic Development As Progressive Politics: Toward a Grassroots Movement for Economic Justice
CUMMINGS 2/1/2002 1:10 PM ARTICLES Community Economic Development as Progressive Politics: Toward a Grassroots Movement for Economic Justice Scott L. Cummings* Community economic development (CED) emerged during the 1990s as the dominant approach to redressing urban poverty, replacing entitlement programs and civil rights initiatives with a market-based strategy for promoting economic equality. Premised on the idea that poor neighborhoods are underutilized markets in need of private sector investment, market-based CED gained a broad range of ideological adherents, resonating with proponents of black nationalism, neoliberal economics, and postmodern micropolitics. As the decade brought economic issues to the fore and legal services advocates faced mounting federal restrictions, increasing numbers of poverty lawyers adopted the market-based CED model, providing transactional legal assistance to community organizations engaged in neighborhood revitalization initiatives. Yet, despite the expansion of the market paradigm, analysts have largely avoided a critical dialogue about CED theory and have neglected a careful examination of the evolving nature of grassroots CED practice. This Article sets forth an indigenous critique of market-based CED, arguing that it fails to deliver on its promise of poverty alleviation, diverts attention from the need for a coordinated political response to economic disadvantage, privileges localism over structural reform, and impedes the formation of multiracial political alliances. This Article then presents an alternative model of politically engaged CED that integrates legal advocacy and community organizing to build cross-neighborhood coalitions that promote broad-based economic reform. It concludes by outlining the contours of this new approach, highlighting how poverty lawyers are collaborating with organizing groups to expand living wage ordinances, establish cooperative businesses, and implement comprehensive hiring and job training programs. -

Social Worker Iii
PLUMAS COUNTY APPROVED: 4/2017 SOCIAL WORKER III DEFINITION Under general direction, the Social Worker III carries a difficult caseload involving the determination of need for basic social services functions for applicants or clients; performs social studies and assignments involving individualized treatment and specialized application of casework methods and skills; provides comprehensive casework services of a tangible nature; and performs other related work as assigned. DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS Social Worker III is the advanced journey level in the Social Worker series. Incumbents are normally assigned a selected caseload of the more difficult cases and when needed are given supervisory consultation in development of treatment plans. They may also be assigned to a specialized function requiring a high degree of perception such as a special problem caseload or they are assigned to a specific geographic or functional area such as Court Investigations, Family Maintenance/Reunification, Emergency Response, Child/Adult Protection, or Foster Care. A Social Worker III may act as a lead worker to other social service workers. Incumbents are expected to work independently. Social Worker III differs from Social Worker II in that the former receives the more difficult assignments requiring greater skill and depth of job knowledge in assessing problem situations and formulating plans for services. Incumbents normally work with a high degree of independence of action in administering services and in making use of agency or community resources. -

PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF LONDON. (B.) FOR THE YEAR MDCCCLXXXVII. VOL. 178. LONDON: PRINTED BY HARRISON AND SONS, ST. MARTIN’S LANE, W C., printers in Ordinary to Her Majesty. MDCCCLXXXVIII. ADVERTISEMENT. The Committee appointed by the Royal Society to direct the publication of the Philosophical Transactions take this opportunity to acquaint the public that it fully appears, as well from the Council-books and Journals of the Society as from repeated declarations which have been made in several former , that the printing of them was always, from time to time, the single act of the respective Secretaries till the Forty-seventh Volume; the Society, as a Body, never interesting themselves any further in their publication than by occasionally recommending the revival of them to some of their Secretaries, when, from the particular circumstances of their affairs, the Transactions had happened for any length of time to be intermitted. And this seems principally to have been done with a view to satisfy the public that their usual meetings were then continued, for the improvement of knowledge and benefit of mankind : the great ends of their first institution by the Boyal Charters, and which they have ever since steadily pursued. But the Society being of late years greatly enlarged, and their communications more numerous, it was thought advisable that a Committee of their members should be appointed to reconsider the papers read before them, and select out of them such as. they should judge most proper for publication in the future Transactions; which was accordingly done upon the 26th of March, 1752. -
Cor 2016 0801 of Victoria At
IN THE CORONERS COURT Court Reference: COR 2016 0801 OF VICTORIA AT MELBOURNE FINDING INTO DEATH WITHOUT INQUEST Form 38 Rule 63(2) Section 67 of the Coroners Act 2008 Findings of: AUDREY JAMIESON, CORONER Deceased: LYDIA MAXFIELD Date of birth: 28 July 1930 Date of death: 22 February 2016 Cause of death: Multisystem failure complicating ischaemic heart disease and ischaemic bowel in the setting of recent total knee replacement Place of death: Maryvale, Victoria 3840 1 of 25 Pursuant to section 67(1) of the Coroners Act 2008, I make findings with respect to the following circumstances: 1. Mrs Lydia Maxfield was 85 years of age at the time of her death. She lived in Drouin with her son Robert and was mobile and independent in activities of daily life. 2. Mrs Maxfield’s medical history included osteoarthritis, hypertension, ischaemic heart disease,1 ulcerative oesophagitis, obesity,2 right hip replacement (2009), right knee replacement (2012), and left hip replacement (2013). 3. Following left hip replacement surgery in January 2013, Mrs Maxfield developed ‘indigestion’, was found to be anaemic and received a blood transfusion, after which the symptoms spontaneously settled. Six weeks post-operative, Mrs Maxfield was reviewed by interventional cardiologist Dr Tony White, and a persantin nuclear myocardial perfusion scan3 was performed. Mrs Maxfield’s cardiac ejection fraction4 was found to be 65 per cent with limited uptake in the basal lateral wall, which was suggestive of stenosis in the circumflex artery. Dr White summarised: Mrs Maxfield has had an episode of probable angina post-operatively…she is now asymptomatic […] I would like to advocate conservative management. -
