Guy Peters’ comprehensive exploration of the political and policy-making roles of public bureaucracies is newly available in a fully revised and updated fifth edition.

While legislation such as the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act made huge strides in increasing economic opportunity and reducing educational disparities, southern slavery has had a profound, lasting, and self-reinforcing influence on regional and national politics that can still be felt today. Today, southern whites who live in areas once reliant on slavery—compared to areas that were not—are more racially hostile and less amenable to policies that could promote black progress. The book decisively shaped the teaching of political science by introducing realism in analysis of politics, introducing the "interest group" model, and introducing behavioral methods based on statistical analysis of election returns.

  • MIAMI UNIVERSITY the Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation
    MIAMI UNIVERSITY The Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation We hereby approve the Dissertation of Craig S. McClure Candidate for the Degree: Doctor of Philosophy _______________________________________ Director Dr. Philip A. Russo, Jr. _______________________________________ Reader Dr. Melvin Cohen ______________________________________ Reader Dr. John P. Forren ______________________________________ Graduate School Representative Dr. Peter M. Schuller ABSTRACT SEEKING JUSTICE: EXAMINING ADULT OFFENDER REENTRY COURT PARTNERSHIPS FROM A POLICY IMPLEMENTATION PERSPECTIVE by Craig S. McClure This dissertation reveals a unique and atypical role for community level judges as adult offender reentry coordinators. Reentry court partnerships (RCPs) place the judge at the center of post-release supervision and treatment. RCPs are new and innovative community-based programs that are designed to help offenders leave the state prison system and successfully return to society. This study asks the fundamental question, “How are reentry court partnerships being implemented?” In answering the question, reentry court actors and their decisions are the focus of data collection using a values- based survey instrument. This dissertation contributes to clarifying a disparate body of policy implementation research generally, as well as provides data that will aid current and future reentry court development nationwide. The key findings of this dissertation are that an actors’ sense of accountability most strongly influences decision making in the policy implementation process, and that elected judges can emerge as powerful agents for social change in the community.
