 Effective and meaningful public policy depends on government fiscal policy--the actual political willingness to spend money and raise taxes. Much of the federal government's response to the Coronavirus has been through federal funding for state and local governments. This course examines the politics of federal budgeting and the role the budget plays in national economic policy making. Students will learn about the creation of the presidential budget, the politics of the Congressional budget process, tax policy, defense spending, social spending, fiscal federalism--the connection between federal and state governments, and the relationship between fiscal policy and the Federal Reserve's making of monetary policy.

 Our Spring 2021 partner is the UVA Legal Data Lab who is working to launch a database of Virginia court records. We will undertake some initial analysis of subsets of this data to create a series of policy-oriented data stories to accompany the database platform. These will serve as examples of the types of research the court data enables, provide models of reproducible analysis, and be an educational resource for others wishing to use the data platform for analysis and advocacy. We are particularly interested in developing analyses that will help justice-oriented organizations and advocates understand how his data can be used to understand racial and other disparities in the criminal and civil judicial systems.

The course analyzes and evaluates the social, cultural, political, economic, and interpersonal contexts of racism and power, which bear on current policies, institutional arrangements, and business strategies.

Lessons learned will have direct application to multilateral negotiations across multiple other issue areas, from human health to outer space.

Spring 2022  20987 001Lecture (3 Units)Open13 / 14 (15 / 20)Brooke LehmannTuTh 3:30pm - 4:45pmThe Rotunda Room 150
 In this course, students will explore US mental health policy and critically analyze whether or not those policies are effectively addressing our Nation’s behavioral health needs. Beginning with the very first efforts to legislate in this policy area, continuing into current times, students will explore how the US Federal government has and does perceive mental illness, what impact science has had on various policy initiatives and why we still remain in a state of crisis. Topics to be explored will be but are not limited to; institutionalization versus community-based services, the impact of adverse childhood experiences, PTSD and the military, brain science and its impact on policy and practice, mechanisms of financing mental health services, our current opioid crisis, and of course COVID. We will hear from congressional staff and other national experts in the area as well as incorporate, when possible, congressional hearings and other relevant activities. Major mental health legislation is already being introduced for the Spring so it should be a very dynamic and exciting time!
