Описание: A Decent Provision is a narrative history of how and why Australia built a distinctive welfare regime in the period from the 1870s to 1949. At the beginning of this period, the Australian colonies were belligerently insisting they must not have a Poor Law, yet had reproduced many of the systems of charitable provision in Britain. By the start of the twentieth century, a combination of extended suffrage, basic wage regulation and the aged pension had led to a reputation as a 'social laboratory'. And yet half a century later, Australia was a 'welfare laggard' and the Labor Party's welfare state of the mid-1940s was a relatively modest and parsimonious construction. Models of welfare based on social insurance had been vigorously rejected, and the Australian system continued on a path of highly residual, targeted welfare payments. The book explains this curious and halting trajectory, showing how choices made in earlier decades constrained what could be done, and what could be imagined. Based on extensive new research from a variety of primary sources it makes a significant contribution to general historical debates, as well as to the field of comparative social policy.

Описание: This book explores the accountability mechanisms of the Community Driven Development (CDD) projects in provision of water-services to decentralised rural-Indonesia and examines how these mechanisms prevent or mitigate corruption risks. The analysis is based on three water supply community development programs in Indonesia. This book examines the selected projects accountability-mechanisms by analysing three key areas (factors): legitimacy, transparency and monitoring or oversight control. This book asserts that if the projects regulatory framework provides mechanisms of legitimacy, transparency and monitoring control at the community grass-roots level, this in turn can increase the responsiveness and accountability of the infrastructure providers and therefore prevent (more effectively) the risk of corruption. The core result attained from the research outlined in this book is that when projects include specific mechanisms of legitimacy, transparency and monitoring control, they improve accountability and tackle the corruption risk better. This book encourages bottom-up accountability, moving away from the developmental authoritarianism, and building projects of local adaptation, ownership and deep-rooted democratization.

Описание: Whilst `parenting` is a thoroughly cultured product, it is often treated as a transparent set of skills. Exploring points of accommodation and tension between parenting as defined by professionals, and as experienced by parents themselves, this book investigates the relationship between being a parent and the expertise around parenting.

Описание: Developed for students in child and family science courses, An Introduction to Effective Parenting Education: Exploring Context, Content, and Strategies provides foundational information and orients readers to professional parent education, both formal and informal. Geared specifically to those who may one day provide parenting education, the text is organized into three sections that discuss the context of parenthood in the United States, the content generally included in parenting programs, and the specific strategies parent educators use to teach adults.Readers learn about the sociology of parenthood, including demographic trends regarding parenthood, the effect of parenting on both parents and children, and the research that has produced a scientific consensus regarding effective parenting. They also review the best practices of those parenting strategies in depth. Strategies include attachment relationship formation; communication approaches such as active listening, I-messages, and win-win problem-solving; process-centered feedback to nurture a growth mindset; natural and logical consequences; and applied behavior analysis. Finally, readers explore the profession of family life education, including best practices for teaching as well as a review of widely used parenting programs.Focused on content that is practically applicable, and dedicated to compassionate, evidence-based parenting education, An Introduction to Effective Parenting Education encourages students to think deeply about all aspects of parenting. It is well-suited to courses in child and family science, human development and family studies, or parent-child relations.
