Through careful comparison rooted in extensive empirical research in four countries\u2014the United States, France, Norway, and Sweden\u2014Perera reveals how the welfare workforce shapes the supply of social services. By developing a novel theory of \u201csupply side\u201d policy feedback, Perera illuminates critical dynamics of post-industrial politics and policy.&nbsp;This panel will bring together experts from all over the world to engage in critical conversation about an important new book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CHAIR:&nbsp; Elisa Chelle (University of Paris- Nanterre)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PARTICIPANTS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Isabel Perera (Cornell University)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Daniel Beland (McGill University)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Andrea Campbell (Massachusetts Institute of Technology)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alan Jacobs (University of British Columbia)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kimberly Morgan (George Washington University)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ellen Immergut (European University Institute)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Isabelle Engeli (Exeter University)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>10:00-11:30<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><strong>The Politics of Francophone Africa: A Research Dialog<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CO SPONSORS: Comparative Politics, African Politics, Democracy and Autocracy<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal of this panel is twofold: first, to promote a&nbsp; systematic dialogue about the legacy of French\/Belgian colonialism and contemporary francophone African politics and second to disseminate that dialog in a special issue of <em>French Politics<\/em> a journal that has more or less ignored post colonial issues.
