This article investigates the interinstitutional PhD projects’ (DINTER) influence on the National Graduate System expansion in Brazil. These projects are a graduate system flexibilization in which a graduate institution named the promoter offers its stricto sensucourse to another institution, the receptor. First, we analyzed the approved projects on three different calls for proposals, CAPES-SETEC and New Frontiers, that last from 2007 to 2009, and the nº 13 call, published on 2011. Second, from 2009 to 2016, we checked the receptor institutions that had established their own courses in the same field of the previously approved projects. To corroborate the influence relation, it was observed the data annually informed by the promoter institution during the DINTER effectiveness, and the one communicated by the receptor institution after developing its own course. The results showed a direct contribution of these projects to the faculty qualification when conceiving new graduate courses, which justifies the public policy under analysis.

This article presents fragments of history about the intersections between Health and Education in Brazil and its connections to discussions concerning democracy ideals. The background argument is how an ethical posture in public policy consistent with the one proposed by Paulo Freire allows for population participation in a way that strengthens the commitment to democracy in public policy. Such ethical posture 1) considers social determinants of the phenomena that happens to an individual, and 2) requires constant effort to not fall for the tempting silencing of one's existence and full citizenship.

Max Neiman provides a concise, well-written, and compre- hensive critical analysis of "the conservative attack on the public sector, especially its explanation for and evaluation of the size and growth of the public sector in the United States" (p. viii). In doing so, however, he only partially fulfills what is promised in the subtitle, namely, explaining why big govern- ment works. Rather than explicitly assess the reasons for goal achievement in a variety of policy areas, as the title implied to me, Neiman focuses on why we have big government and on the various critiques of that size. To be sure, the book is appropriate for upper division and graduate courses in political science, public policy, or public administration.

The research questions that will be investigated are how to establish a clear distinction between poverty and inequality in public policy debates and how public administrators can formulate and implement policies that will reduce world inequality today. Equality is not always seen as an equation of economic conditions but mainly as an equal opportunity to achieve it. This is why it is important to refer to the concept of social justice when addressing inequality. This article will review and analyze the current literature on poverty, inequality and social justice and will suggest some new approaches to eliminating inequality. Although the initiative required to achieve these objectives must come from politics, the public administrator will ultimately be the one to provide a definite plan or procedure to ensure the fulfillment of these political initiatives. This article will discuss how public policymakers can promote equality and social justice.

Woodrow Wilson’s early writings contributed to the emerging effort in the 1880s to redefine and reform the field of public administration and to clarify its relationship to elected officials. Wilson envisioned an active and independent administration that was accountable to elected officials for carrying out the policies they established. Administrators should display expertise and operate efficiently, yet they should be attuned to the views of the public and not seek to determine the content of public policy. Elected officials should stop intervening in determining the detailed decisions made by administrators. The central interpretation of Wilson’s views is that politics and policy, on the one hand, and administration, on the other, were not strictly divided in a dichotomous relationship. They were two distinct but interconnected parts of a duality. There was clear support for the view espoused by Wilson in the next half century and a recognition that administrators assisted elected officials in the formulation of policy. The view that the ideal relationship between elected officials and administrators was a dichotomy took hold, and some claimed that Wilson advocated this strict separation. Subsequent theorizing and empirical research by public administration scholars have clearly supported a dualistic view of the relationship and have recognized Wilson’s contribution to establishing a model for the field that would stress complementarity between elected officials and administrators, rather than dichotomy.

When the debate over euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide emerged into public consciousness in the mid-1970s, the debate got off to a rousing start, as philosophers, doctors, theologians, public-policy theorists, journalists, social advocates, and private citizens became embroiled in the debate. On the one side were liberals, who thought physician-assisted suicide and perhaps voluntary active euthanasia were ethically acceptable and should be legal; on the other side were conservatives, who believed that it was imoral and/or dangerous to legalize assisted dying as a matter of public policy. Over the next few decades in which this debate was accelerating it achieved a lively, florid richness, both as a philosophical dispute and as a broad, international public issue. This article aims to explore the richness of this debate by showing something of the terrain of the debate and the figures who have inhabited it, both the public figures and the academic ones partly behind the scenes.

The 1990s witnessed the spread of anti-corruption scandals in Latin American countries as well as a decade in which international transparency standards were developed. These two processes were closely related but they followed different local and global political dynamics. Transparency policies were perceived everywhere as a good response to the growing of corruption scandals. But, at the end of the day, the effectiveness of these policies was far from optimal. This article discusses the link between these two main aspects of the corruption as a public problem in Argentina. It reconstructs the dynamics of corruption scandals and state responses in Argentina during the 1990s, and asks how effective and efficient those responses were given the type of accusations and corruption cases exposed to the public through scandals. The hypothesis is that scandals, on the one hand, and public policy responses, on the other, refer to different aspects of the same problem and that the latter have failed to deal effectively with the demands and claims expressed through the scandals.

Resumen: En este trabajo vamos a explicar los tres problemas de aplicación que se encuentran contemplados en el Reglamento sucesorio europeo. De los tres, el orden público, la remisión a ordena­mientos plurilegislativos y el reenvío, este último es el que presenta una regulación más particular. En efecto, esta norma sucesoria se aparta de la línea general de excluir esta figura que siguen el resto de Reglamentos europeos de Derecho Internacional Privado. Además de lo anterior, el Reglamento no sólo admite el reenvío sino que, también, lo permite hasta de segundo grado.Palabras clave: orden público, ordenamientos plurilegislativos, reenvío, Reglamento sucesorio europeo.Abstract: In this paper we will explain the three application problems that are covered by the European Succession Regulation. Of the three, the public policy, the remission to States with more than one legal system and the renvoi, the latter is the one that presents a more particular regulation. In effect, the Regulation departs from the general line of excluding this figure, which is followed by the rest of the European Regulations on Private International Law. In addition, the Regulation not only allows it, but also allows it up to the second degree.Keywords: public policy, states with more than one legal system, renvoi, the EU succession Re­gulation

Abstract The speech-language pathologist (SLP) working in the public schools has a wide variety of tasks. Educational preparation is not all that is needed to be an effective school-based SLP. As a SLP currently working in the capacity of a program coordinator, the author describes the skills required to fulfill the job requirements and responsibilities of the SLP in the school setting and advises the new graduate regarding the interview process and beginning a career in the public schools.
