The Politics of Social Policy Reform in the United States: The Clinton and the W. Bush Presidencies Reconsidered
No full textThe purpose of this paper is to examine what key reform attempts during the Bill Clinton and George W. Bush presidencies reveal about the wider possibilities for social policy change in the United States. Most particularly, why were Presidents Clinton and Bush able to achieve their goals in some policy realms but so badly defeated in others? As argued, institutional variation from one policy area to another helps answer this question. On the one hand, strong institutional obstacles in the fields of Social Security and health insurance largely explain the defeat of the most ambitious social policy proposal put forward by each president. On the other hand, successful reforms occurred in a comparatively favourable institutional context. Yet, the analysis also suggests that paying close attention to the strategic ideas of political actors as they interact with existing institutions and policy legacies is necessary to fully understand the politics of social policy reform.social policy, Medicare, Social Security, welfare, institutions, United States
Clinton Theater newspaper clipping
No full textClipping of a newspaper photograph showing the Clinton Theater, which opened on New Year's Day in 1927. The Clinton was located on the west side of North High Street just south of North Broadway in Clintonville, and housed an auditorium with seating for 1,500, as well as a second-story ballroom. After changing ownership throughout the decades, the theater closed in 1973 and was sold to the Clintonville Electric Company. After being left vacant in 2003, the building was demolished in 2010.
