1 Unit 11 Public Policy and Foreign Policy Assignment 1: Due: Friday, 4.6 Outline for notes 1. Please read textbook, Chapter 16, pages , Poverty in America, and The Politics and Policies of Social Welfare. 1. Poverty in America ~Poverty line what it is today, not when textbook as written, what it means, cost of living, sizes of families, geographic dispersion (Please read blue box on page 444 and include in your notes the states with the highest percentages of people living in poverty. Why? Why are the voters in those states usually conservative?) ~ Minimum wage today? How far is that wage below the poverty line? Why? ~ What are reasons given for people living in poverty today? How does that match with the mistaken opinions of Americans about who lives in poverty, how long, and for what reasons? ~ Go beyond textbook to Pew Research Center and find and learn about the data they have on poverty. Be ready to share with class. 2. The Politics and Policies of Social Welfare ~ Differences between negative government views and positive government views, both historically and today go beyond different political parties ~ In your notes you need to know each specific program (i.e. individual benefits, transfer payments, entitlement programs, social insurance, unemployment insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, public assistance programs, SSI, TANF, Head Start, EITC, in-kind benefit, food stamps, voucher programs) and the specific qualifications of each one, as well as how and why they receive government benefits. Don t group them all together under welfare ; the FRQs ask specific questions about specific policies and you need to be able to discuss each with some expertise and evidence. ~ Think about creating a linear graph so that you would be able to compare and contrast the qualifications and benefits and purposes and changes in policies. ~ Go beyond the textbook so that you have a deeper understand of the policies, how they are funded, and how they relate to previous knowledge, such as linkage institutions, democratic principles, differences between the U.S. model and the European model. 3. Culture and Social Welfare ~ Specifics about 1996 Welfare Reform Act know what it was designed to fix, if it has worked, and if it is still funded today ~ Review your notes on bureaucracy as you take notes on the inefficiency of the U.S. system how many federal employees work in this system? How many Americans do they serve? How is this system impacted by grants-in-aid? Fiscal federalism? What changes have been made to the system under devolution? (Specific information needed) In cooperative federalism, what changes were made to the funding, distribution, and success of social welfare? What changes occurred with categorical grants? Block grants? Web site to use or start with: 2017 Poverty Guidelines. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Assignment 2: Due: Thursday, 4.12 Outline for notes 1. Please read Chapter 16, pages , and keep in mind: 1
2 A prevailing principle in the U.S. is equality of opportunity, which in terms of policy is most evident in the area of public education. 1. Education of Equality of Opportunity ~ Definition of term with examples, types of equality, who actually receives those opportunities and why Take notes on the following: ~1964 Higher Education Act, Pell Grants, Stafford Loans, federal loans, federally subsidized college work-study programs, 1964 Elementary and Secondary Education Act ~ How are these programs funded? Entitlement? Where do you find them in the federal budget? ~ Impacted by what under Presidents Bush and Obama? Look at recent news what is the size of student loan debt in America today? Why would all those Americans have so much debt? How does each of them pay it off? Why do young people think today that the federal government has to subsidize their education? What is the difference between this funding and funding for social welfare programs? ~ Please take notes including the specific legislation passed and WHY it was developed and adopted: 1. School choice how is it funded? Why is it controversial? 2. School vouchers How are they funded? Who supports vouchers and why? 3. Mandatory High-Stakes Testing Why? When did these standardized tests become part of public education? Purpose? Controversies? What kinds of tests are students given in California and New York State? 4. NCLB Why? Source? Purpose? Controversy? Funding comes from where? 5. President Obama s education reform programs? Race to the top, Why? Source? Purpose? Controversy? Funding comes from where? If the federal government does not provide funding for public education reform, then how are these reforms funded? What happens to states if they do not fund these programs? ~Please read summary with purpose great way to review what you have just read and reviewed. Think about and come to class with your observations: What are the effects of privatizing the implementation of public policy? Make a list of the priorities of the implementation of education policy. These might include: educating students, doing so effectively, maintaining order in the schools, appeasing political offices, and so forth. How might these goals and their prioritization change if education policy was administered by private companies? Remake the list of priorities if the policy was to be implemented under a policy of privatization. What goals do those implementing policy seek to achieve when private actors rather than public actors perform the implementation? Some and other terms to know: Contributory programs Social Security Indexing Medicare Noncontributory programs Race to the Top Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) Means testing Medicaid Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Food stamps In-kind benefits Entitlement Grants-in-aid Block grants Fiscal federalism Poverty line Effective tax rate Transfer payment Public assistance Equality of opportunity School vouchers NCLB act of
