This thesis explores how political actors utilize studies of the arts' impact on state economies to boost -the significance of cultural policy within a given political environment. Specifically, this thesis explains how the current Governor of Maine, John Baldacci and the leaders of Maine's cultural policy bureaucracy utilized a study of creative industries' contributions to the Maine economy to lead an effort to garner public support for a statewide cultural economic development agenda. In researching this topic, I have come to learn how an economic impact study in the hands of an ambitious and enterprising coalition of arts advocates convinced political elites and voters in an overwhelmingly rural state to embrace cultural development as an economic development strategy - a decidedly urban(e) phenomenon - via Governor Baldacci's Creative Economy Initiative. Largely attributable to the state's desperation for economic development, the anomalous political success story of the Creative Economy Initiative is a revealing one, providing a look at how cultural policy can garner high priority status on state policy agendas as well as lessons on how to make cultural economic development politically palatable in rural areas.

Full textAll children residing in the United States have the right to a quality education. At least that is our collective expectation. Through the lived experience of Yuli, a Native American woman from the Southwest, you will discover, due to her birth on a remote reservation, she was not given the same access to education you or I would expect. On Yuli’s reservation, the school system is managed by the Bureau of Indian Education (BIE). Rather than provide K-12 schooling, the BIE operates K-8 on her reservation and then Native youth who want to go to high school must move off-reservation.
This qualitative study focuses on Yuli’s experience as she traversed the educational system offered to her in order to complete eighth grade, earn her high school diploma and be accepted to college. Her narrative gives insight into what she lost, personally and culturally, as a result of the operational delinquency of a United States of America government agency tasked with one duty, providing an adequate, quality education to Indigenous youth across America. This study explores Yuli’s story, educational inopportunity, and the cultural impact of leaving the reservation to attain an education.

Full textThe democratic decentralization of government administration in Indonesia from 1999 represents the most dramatic shift in governance in that country for decades. In this dissertation I explore how health managers in one kabupaten (regency) are responding to the new political environment. Kabupaten health managers experience decentralization as incomplete, pointing to the tendency of central government to retain control of certain health programs and budgets. At the same time they face competing demands for autonomy from puskesmas (health center) heads. Building on Scott’s (1985) idea of a “moral economy” I delve beneath the political tensions of competing autonomies to describe a moral landscape of underlying beliefs about how government ought to behave in the health sector. Through this analysis certain failures and contradictions in the decentralization process emerge, complicating the literature that presents decentralization as a move in the direction of “good governance” (Mitchell and Bossert 2010, Rondinelli and Cheema 2007, Manor 1999).
Decentralization brings to the fore the internal divisions within government, yet health workers present a united front in their engagements with the public. Under increasing pressure to achieve global public health goals such as the Millennium Development Goals, health managers engage in multiple translations in converting global health discourses into national and local health policies and in framing these policies in ways that are comprehensible and compelling to the general public. Using the lens of a “cultural theory of state” (Corrigan and Sayer 1985) I describe how health professionals and volunteers draw on local cultural forms in order to render global frameworks compatible with local moralities. I introduce the term “moral pluralism” to describe how individual health workers interrelate several moral frameworks in their health promotion work, including Islam, evidence based medicine and right to health. My conclusion is that kabupaten health managers are engaging in two balancing acts. The first is between decentralization and (re)centralization and deals with the proper way to manage health programming. The second is between global health discourses and local cultural forms and concerns the most effective way to convey public health messages in order to bring about behavior change in line with national and global public health goals. This is the first anthropological study of how government officials at different levels negotiate the process of health decentralization in the face of increasing international pressure to achieve global public health goals.

In contrast to the municipalities across the United States that restrict migration and criminalize the presence of immigrants, Philadelphia is actively seeking to attract immigrants as a strategy to reverse the city’s limited economic and political importance caused by decades of deindustrialization and population loss. In 2010, the population of Philadelphia increased for the first time in six decades. This achievement, widely celebrated by the local government and in the press, was only made possible through increased immigration. This dissertation examines how efforts to attract migrants, through the creation of localized policy and institutions that facilitate incorporation, transform assertions of citizenship and the dynamics of race for Colombian migrants. The purpose of this research is to analyze how Colombians’ articulations of citizenship, and the ways they extend beyond juridical and legal rights, are enabled and constrained under new regimes of localized policy. In the dissertation, I examine citizenship as a set of performances and practices that occur in quotidian tasks that seek to establish a sense of belonging. Without a complex understanding of the effects of local migration policy, and how they differ from the effects of federal policy, we fail to grasp how Philadelphia’s promotion of migration has unstable and unequal effects for differentially situated actors. This becomes evermore salient as increased migration wrought through local policy efforts guarantees that Philadelphia will continue to uneasily shift away from its Black-White racial polarity. Second, I explore how the racialization of Colombians is transformed by the dynamics of localized policy in Philadelphia, where their experiences of marginalization as Latinos belies the construction of immigrants as a highly valued group, and shaped by the particularities of Colombian history, the imperial nature of US-Colombia relations, and shifting geopolitics among Latin American nations. The dissertation highlights how Colombians seek to meaningfully distinguish themselves from other Latinos by examining the ways changes in Latin America have shaped and continue to shape the politics of race in the US, and thus how Colombians navigate and produce the boundaries between groups. The dissertation contextualizes Colombian migration within three significant shifts in the contemporary US.: 1) the increasing attempts of states, municipalities and cities to craft their own immigration policies, specifically declining cities attempting to rebound from population loss and deindustrialization, 2) the emergence of Latinos as the largest demographic minority group and their increasing heterogeneity with respect to race, legal status, class and national origin and 3) heightened attention to citizenship as legal status and performances and practices of belonging. This research contributes to the theorization of racial formations and citizenship by providing critical information about local immigration policies as transforming intra- and inter-group relations, thus offering an analysis of Philadelphia as a new immigrant destination.

The multiplication strategy within the range of inclusion public policies from the Education Ministry - MEC, object of the present study, has been widely used in Brazil as a way of reaching all boroughs in this country of continental dimensions. According to the international guidelines, through different programs, the Education Ministry has adopted this strategy, in order to organize the multipliers formation, from boroughs that are situated in the five regions of the country. The research field of this study is specifically the Program Inclusive Education: the right to diversity - PEI: DD, established in Brazil by The Special Education Secretary Seesp-since 2003. Although this strategy has been current practice in the political actions of the federal government, the studies that hold the genesis, monitoring and knowledge of the multiplication process results in Brazil are still unknown. This investigation, conducted in the field of Cultural Studies and Inclusive Education, adopted the methodology Case Study and Grounded Theory for the theoretical construction based on data collected in the research field. Five boroughs, chosen as pole, were investigated : Salvador, Feira de Santana, Juazeiro, Vitoria da Conquista and Barreiras, from 2003 to 2008. The work was grounded on the qualitative research through the case study methodology. A total of 15 municipal representatives, one representative from the state and five, from the federal level participated in the research. The focus was a wide variety of evidences, as research techniques, besides the semi-structured interview, a survey of official documents and the change timeline were used by the participants who judged that there had been significant changes in their practice that could be associated to the Program, Media and the Research Diary- PDS, in which sensations and information were recorded under the researcher view in her research itinerary. The data were analyzed through similarities, contrasts and barriers among the boroughs that are field of the research. Considering the territorial dimension of our country, the findings indicate that there are similarities in the actions realized by the PEI boroughs: DD and the innumerable barriers inherent to the own administrative policy from the federal government that ties the multiplication agents. It also illuminates the urgency of the implementation of evaluative and comparative studies from the results of the multiplication strategy application to the public policies of inclusion, aiming to analyze its effectiveness at the national level and reset it to the local and regional reality, in addition to helping ensure the optimization of investment in improving the quality of education for all, including those with disabilities. The study also is expected to contribute to the advancement of the debate and knowledge on the area of public policies and, more specifically, the strategies of dissemination of inclusion educational policies in Brazil.
A estratégia de multiplicação no âmbito de políticas públicas de inclusão do Ministério da Educação MEC, objeto do presente estudo, vem sendo amplamente utilizada no Brasil como forma de alcançar todos os municípios de um país de dimensão continental. Em consonância com diretrizes internacionais, por meio de diferentes programas, o MEC adota essa estratégia, a partir da qual organiza a formação de multiplicadores de municípios localizados nas cinco regiões do país. O presente estudo tem como campo de pesquisa especificamente o Programa Educação Inclusiva: direito à diversidade PEI: DD, implantado no Brasil desde o ano de 2003 pela Secretaria de Educação Especial Seesp. Muito embora tal estratégia constitua prática corrente nas ações políticas do governo federal, ainda são desconhecidos os estudos que se detenham à gênese, acompanhamento e conhecimento dos resultados do processo de multiplicação no Brasil. Esta investigação, realizada no campo dos Estudos Culturais e Educação Inclusiva, adotou a metodologia Estudo de Caso e a Teoria Fundamentada para a construção teórica a partir dos dados colhidos no campo de pesquisa. Foram investigados cinco municípios-polo, a saber: Salvador, Feira de Santana, Juazeiro, Vitória da Conquista e Barreiras, no período de 2003-2008. O trabalho alicerçou-se na pesquisa qualitativa através da metodologia de estudo de caso. Participaram da pesquisa um total de 15 representantes da esfera municipal, um representante da esfera estadual e cinco representantes da esfera federal. Primando pela ampla variedade de evidências, como técnicas de pesquisa, além da entrevista semiestruturada, foram utilizados levantamento de documentos oficiais, a linha de tempo da mudança preenchida apenas pelos participantes que julgaram ter havido mudanças significativas em sua prática que pudessem estar associadas ao Programa, meios de comunicação e o Diário de Pesquisa DPq, no qual foram registradas sensações e informações colhidas sob o olhar da pesquisadora em seu itinerário de pesquisa. Os dados foram analisados através de semelhanças, contrastes e barreiras entre os municípios campo da pesquisa. Dada a dimensão territorial do país, os achados indicam que há similaridades nas ações realizadas pelos municípios do PEI: DD e inúmeras barreiras, inclusive, inerentes à própria política administrativa do governo federal, que engessam os agentes de multiplicação. Também ilumina a urgência da implementação de estudos avaliativos e comparativos dos resultados da aplicação da estratégia de multiplicação de políticas públicas de inclusão visando a analisar sua efetividade no âmbito nacional e reajustá-lo à realidade local e regional, além de contribuir para assegurar a otimização do investimento na melhoria da qualidade da educação para todos, incluindo aqueles com deficiência. Com o estudo, espera-se contribuir para o avanço do debate e conhecimento na área de políticas públicas e, mais especificamente, das estratégias de disseminação de políticas educacionais de inclusão no Brasil.
