MAJOR ASPECTS OF DAY CARE: STATEMENTS AND ARTICLES Introduction The collection or articles :.ontained in this multilith. has been compiled in response to a growing interest in vartbus aspects of day -care. Concern with day care has expanded during the past few years, as a result of-three separate occurrences.The first is the-rapidli _increasing-A=6er of women With children who are-returning to the labor force. The second is the fact that day care is more and more freqUently cited as a key ingredient in attempts t0 check he growing number of female-headed families on-the nation's welfare rolls. In order to enable a female family head to seek and obtainemployment, day care for her -children must be provided.And the third development is a growing belief that early childhood education may be a major leans ofpreventinglater social problems. In oz.-der to deacribe the various types of day care presently in . =use, the articles selected have been divided into four different sections: 1) General, which describes underlying policy, trends and the present status of day care in the United States; 2) Working Mothers, covering day care arrangements made by Women in the labor force; 3) Foreign, describing various types of day care in operation outside of the United States; and, 4) Corporate, which describes the growing interest of business in day care. -Of further relevance in connectionlath thae articles are the following publications: -1) General -U.S. Congress.

Lourie, Ann Dehuff Peters, and Laura'L. Dittman, -eds.Early Child.Care: The new perspectives. New York,.Atherton Press, 1968. A bill providing for the funding of comprehensivechild development programs by the Secretary of Health, Education;and Welfare through a system of prime sponsors has recently been paSsed byboth the Senate and the House of Representativesas an amendment to the 1971 Economic Opportunity Amend- meats (S. 2007). The House and Senate versions differ somewhatand remain to be reconciled by a Conference committee. - Other legislation involving daycare is H.R. 1, the Social Security . Amendments-of 1971, which, includes provision-forchild care services for _. families receiving assistance who need them inorder to participate in employment or training programs,,anda liberalization of the income tax treatment of child care expenses for familieswith incomes up to $12,000 per year. This bill was reported by the Committeeon Ways. and Means on May 26, 1971 and passed the Houseon June 22. It is presently before the Senate Finance Committee. In the 91st Congress, the welfare bill reported by the Senate Finance Committee, contained provision for the establishment of a federal child care corporation which is more fully discussed within this selection of articles.

  • Obscene Gestures: Sexual Transgression and Late Twentieth-Century American Political Culture
    Obscene Gestures: Sexual Transgression and Late Twentieth-Century American Political Culture Patrick Scott Lawrence, PhD University of Connecticut, 2016 Tracing a cultural history from the 1970s to the 1990s, Obscene Gestures places popular and legal notions of obscenity in conversation with anti-consumerist and anti-capitalist resistance movements, women of color feminism, and LGBTQ activism. Since the 1973 Supreme Court ruling in Miller v. California, obscenity discourse has policed the shape of the nation by marking non-normative bodies as objectionable. The dissertation’s study of the cultural artifacts this discourse concerns opens by situating the history of literary obscenity alongside the key theories of sexuality, power, race, and knowledge. The first body chapter links the Miller ruling with 1970s-era neoconservative policies by considering some of the decade’s major novels, including Thomas Pynchon’s Gravity’s Rainbow (1973), revealing a home- front cultural politics that stymied dissent by classing as out of bounds many forms of political speech, including Huynh Cong Ut’s 1972 photo The Terror of War. Chapter Two builds upon the polarization this moment caused via an analysis of the feminist battles over pornography in the early 1980s. I juxtapose figures on both sides of this debate with works by women of color, such as Alice Walker’s The Color Purple (1983), that address the histories of embodiment that this debate tended to obscure. The occlusion of race in organizing around pornography parallels the role of possessive individualism in justifying racial wealth disparities during the Reagan administration, which the third chapter highlights. Working in the shadow of the 1986 Meese Commission report, this chapter interprets neoliberal economic policies as an enactment of racial indifference through the metaphors of sex and violence in The Bonfire of the Vanities (1987) and American Psycho (1990).
