  摘要：Through an examination of the implementation of the 7 996 Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act in the state of Mississippi, we explore the adequacy of traditional two-actor principal-agent theory Using this as our lens, we suggest that the choices made by Mississippi in the area of welfare reform to privatize much of the work and to add several layers to the existing principal-agent relationship substantially reduced accountability and the effectiveness of the monitoring systems.

It presents rankings of each state's funding equality and explores factors that may be related to the level of equality within states and to ch...
