1 Introduction The nonprofit sector has been shaped in the 21st century by what has been termed an “audit culture” (Strathern 2000); or, as sociologist Aaron Horvath has described it, a transition “from a society of abundant trust and scarce audit to one of scarce trust and abundant audit” (Horvath 2023, 1032).

1 Introduction The opioid crisis in the United States has led to a substantial loss of life and significant societal costs, making it one of the worst public health crises the country has faced in modern times (Hoots et al. 2018; Seth et al. 2018; Birnbaum et al. 2011; Florence et al. 2016; Maclean et al. 2020).

Narrative spillover: A narrative policy framework analysis of critical race theory discourse at multiple levels
INTRODUCTION [A] story is worth a thousand arguments … anecdotes are a powerful tool for swaying public emotion, and you should actively strive to use them.

Why Some Rebel Organizations Attack Americans
ABSTRACT Hating America – and attacking Americans – can seem like a mandatory activity for rebels; yet, only a minority of rebel groups actually harm Americans. Under what circumstances do rebel groups target Americans? To answer these questions, we leverage the Big Allied And Dangerous 2 data – Insurgency subsample (BAAD2-I). Our model focuses on two classes of rebel motives: direct and indirect. Direct motives are those in which Americans play a central role in rebel group grievances.

Does repression work?: Measuring repression’s effect on protest using an instrumental variable model
Introduction Protest and repression are reciprocally related. Governments respond with repression when faced with actual or potential challenges to their rule (Davenport, 2007; Ritter, 2014; Ritter & Conrad, 2016; Sullivan, 2016). Dissidents choose their strategies, turning out to protest or staying home, based on the state’s behaviour (Carey, 2006, 2009; Chenoweth & Stephan, 2008; Francisco, 1995; Pierskalla, 2010).

University at Albany, State University of New York PROMOTED BY Rockefeller College of Public Affairs & Policy | March 2, 2020 When asked what the state capital of New York is, most people outside the U.S. would be quick to answer, “New York City.” While that is a fair assumption given the popularity of the city, Albany is actually the historic state capital of New York — a short 240 kilometres north of New York City — where public policy comes into action.
