British Columbia’s residency requirement on welfare: a rational choice case studyOlmstead, Amy D. K. 11 1900 (has links)
This paper examines British Columbia's residency requirement
on social assistance implemented by the NDP government on December
1, 1995. The policy created a three-month waiting period for
newcomers to the province before they could apply for social
assistance. Because it violated ;the Canada Assistance Plan (CAP),
the residency requirement put the BC government at risk of losing,
through federal penalty, many millions of dollars more than the
intended savings. To explain the BC government's decision-making,
I use a rational choice nested games approach.
I argue that the residency requirement policy produced two
sets of interactions in two separate policy arenas. In the
principal arena, the British Columbia Social Services Ministry
negotiated with the federal Department of Human Resources
Development (HRD). The negotiations centred on the possibility of
federal concessions in- exchange for BC withdrawing the residency
requirement. In the secondary arena, the federal Department of
Finance was consulting with its provincial counterparts regarding
the' long-term funding formula for the Canada Health and Social
Transfer (CHST) set to replace CAP on April 1, 1996. Social
Services interacted with the federal Department of Finance to
influence the outcome of the funding decision.
I propose that the BC government risked minimal resources in
the primary arena to gain substantially higher payoffs from the
CHST funding formula. The government linked these two arenas
through a 'trade-off strategy that allowed them to apply the
political pressure and communication generated by the residency
requirement and negotiations with HRD to the Finance arena. This enabled them to. increase the possibility of a favourable payoff in
that arena. I find that the rational, choice approach produces an
explanation that reflected the government's actual decision-making
more closely than other theoretical approaches.

“YOU’RE SURVIVING BUT I DON’T SEE HOW YOU’RE LIVING” APPALACHIAN WOMEN TALK ABOUT TANF AND EMPLOYMENT IN THEIR COMMUNITIESTsou, Pon-Chu 01 January 2011 (has links)
This thesis studies qualitative data to examine the lived experiences of Kentucky Transitional Assistance Program (K-TAP) recipients in Appalachian Kentucky. This research suggests that PRWORA legislation utilize the importance of place-based analyses to implement and evaluate poverty policy. For women who are attempting to meet PRWORA’s goals, the local services available to the women and the barriers they face to employment highlight the role place has in this national policy discussion. Of the women interviewed, recipients who resided in economically distressed areas had fewer opportunities to participate in employment activities than women in at-risk or transitional areas. While many strived to transition from PRWORA aide to economic independence through education and employment, others sought to exit through disability insurance. Nevertheless, the women interviewed had adopted PRWORA’s goals of economic independence.

Policing and practising subjectivities poor and working class young women and girls and Australian government mutual obligations policiesEdwards, Janet Kay January 2004 (has links)
Australian government Mutual Obligations welfare policies, key features of contemporary Australian welfare reforms are the focus of this study. The subjectivities of poor and working class young women and girls and the subject positions made available to them through Mutual Obligations policies are focal points. A key concern is, 'How do Mutual Obligations policies, their texts, discourses and implementation strategies construct the subjectivities of Australian poor and working class young women and girls?' This study asks what subject positions are made available by the policy, how policy discourses are taken up and enacted by policy subjects, and enquires after the lived effects of government policies. / thesis (PhD)--University of South Australia, 2004.
