"The Political Economy of R&D Collaboration in Korea and Taiwan: An Introduction to the Innovation-Based Developmental State" Paper presented at the annual meeting of the Midwest Political Science Association 67th Annual National Conference, The Palmer House Hilton, Chicago, IL, Apr 02, 2009 Online <APPLICATION/PDF>. 2009-12-05 <http://www.allacademic.com/meta/p362416_index.html>Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript

Abstract: Science and technology policies attempting to correct for market failure in R&D efforts are now one of the most important areas of political economy. This paper focuses specifically on government-funded public-private R&D collaboration in Korea and Taiwan, making it clear that the existing East Asian developmental state discourse is no longer sufficient. Indeed, Korea and Taiwan are growing as a function of an innovation-based developmental state, confirmed with macro-level data analysis (OECD and USPTO) and comparative case study analysis. These two countries are not entirely similar, however. Comparative micro-level analysis using the unique KORTAI R&D dataset shows divergence between Korea and Taiwan in terms of industrial targeting of public research funds. |

"Evidenced Based Decision Making in Iowa: Making Empirically Informed Placements and Supervision Decisions Using the LSI-R and Jesness Inventroy" Paper presented at the annual meeting of the AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CRIMINOLOGY, Atlanta Marriott Marquis, Atlanta, Georgia, Nov 13, 2007 <Not Available>. 2009-12-05 <http://www.allacademic.com/meta/p200276_index.html>Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript
Abstract: This paper will provide an overview of the importance of evidenced based decision making in the field of corrections. Specifically, the authors will examine how correctional practitioners can use an offender’s score on the Level of Service Inventory-Revised and the Jesness Inventory in conjunction with information on community supervision level and intervention services to make empirically informed decisions regarding correctional program placement. Evidence based decision making is important as it increases the likelihood that offenders respond positively to the interventions provided. The policy implications of this research are discussed. |
