Beskrivning

Are female food safety inspectors treated differently than men? What do women contribute to the creation and implementation of public policy in the United States? The editors of and contributors to Women in Regulation, all experts in public policy and public administration, analyze the role women (and stakeholders) play in bureaucracies in environmental, budgetary, and other sectors of the U.S. federal, state, and local governments, plus relevant examples from around the world.Women in Regulation examines the impact of regulatory policy delegation, as well as the actors and processes involved in administrative rulemaking, compliance, and implementation. The book considers representative bureaucracy, organizational stereotypes, emotional labor, and advancement barriers to argue why studying women and regulation is of value. Regulatory case studies focus on topics ranging from water and energy to executive leadership. Chapters also include reflective exercises and prompts for classroom engagement that challenge readers to consider implications for regulatory policy in the future.Amplifying the underheard voices in policy and implementation, Women in Regulation provides a more holistic picture of regulatory practices.Contributors: Saman Afshan, Ashley English, Katherine Hoener, Nicole Humphrey, Ekaterina Levintova, Li-Yin Liu, Sean McCandless, Bruce D. McDonald III, Denise Scheberle, Natalie L. Smith, Manuel P. Teodoro, and the editors

Recensioner i media

"Women have long been excluded from regulatory roles, processes, analyses, and benefits that profoundly shape economic and social life. The contributors to this fascinating book offer diverse perspectives analyzing how the inclusion or exclusion of women affects democratic legitimacy, as well as the gendered cultural and leadership dynamics that influence who is served by regulated programs. This is essential reading for those seeking to understand the informal and formal institutional and societal biases that undergird modern governance."—Rosemary O'Leary, Edwin O. Stene Distinguished Professor Emerita at the University of Kansas School of Public Affairs, and coauthor of Leading in Place: Leadership through Different Eyes"Women and Regulation provides a new and important account of how gender representation is critical at the policy implementation (regulation) stage of the process. The chapters use women's representation in different policy implementation contexts to discuss relevant theories, present case studies, and offer pedagogical 'prompts for engagement' that faculty can use in their classes. This is an important resource that is likely to jump start further research into representation (gender and beyond) in the regulatory environment."—Scott R. Furlong, Professor of Political Science at SUNY Oswego, and coauthor of Rulemaking: The Creation of Law and Policy by Government Agencies, Sixth edition
