Wilson, Janice E. Picheca & Michelle Prinzo Correctional Service of Canada May, 2005 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The latter part of the 20th Century was witness to considerable renewed interest in restorative approaches to crime and offender management. Ironically, professional interest in restoration increased as the public’s cries for more punitive measures rang out loud and clear. Politically, such measures as detention, specialized peace bonds, registries, and long term supervision orders were instituted as a means to demonstrate that the system was serious about “getting tough on crime”. Meanwhile, meta-analytic reviews of the effects of incarceration and rehabilitative programming continued to suggest that longer, harsher sentences were not likely to achieve the sort of value-added that either the public wanted or the government hoped to achieve. No offender population has been more affected by these perspectives than sexual offenders. Understandably, the public has rather strong views about sexual offender risk management, and this has been reflected to a degree in policy and practice.

  • Constructing Metropolitan Space in Toronto
    Canadian Political Science Association Conference, Montreal, June 2010 Track: Local and Urban Politics Institutions and Regionalisms: Constructing Metropolitan Space in Toronto Zack Taylor Doctoral Candidate University of Toronto zack.taylor @utoronto.ca *** Not for citation without permission *** Abstract: The search for effective metropolitan or regional governance arrangements is an enduring theme in North American urban politics and public administration. While earlier postwar literature sought to specify ideal institutional frameworks, scholars have more recently turned their attention to the institutional and social dynamics of contemporary efforts at intraregional collaboration for various purposes, including economic development and promotion, social integration, and land use planning. By treating metropolitan regions as a priori territorial units and focusing on the contemporary period, however, the literature has diverted attention from the historical processes through which metropolitan political spaces have been constructed. This paper advances four propositions to guide historical institutionalist and constructivist research on the process of political metropolitanization: (1) The spatial definition of a metropolitan region is not an a priori fact. Due to the unbounded nature of urbanization processes, it is produced, reproduced, and modified through political contestation. (2) How actors perceive policy problems shapes the choice of territorial scale at which to seek their solution. (3) These processes are conditioned (but
