Latest on my Research ( Dana)

Since our last class, I took time during the  weekend to read more critiques on regime theory relating to public responsiveness of welfare policy, and  I am now more confused on which side I support. Many of the writers acknowledge the variables aren’t measured empirically and are more aligned with theory. The critiques give sound arguments for why  characterization by regimes are flawed because they don’t  account for mixed Welfare States. I am now working out the kinks for my presentation tomorrow.
