About Me:
I've been an activist in India working for rural labour issues like Minimum Wages, the Right to Information, Social Audits, State Transparency and Employment Guarantee and have been conducting research on economic globalisation processes and their implications for poverty. For my doctoral research I will be comparing economic policy elements in Venezuela and India for their implications on poverty.

Heritage II
Open Forum on Uses of Language in Public Policy
CHAIR: HEYMAN, Josiah (U Texas-El Paso)
The focus will be the ways that formal, policy oriented language articulates with communities, scholars, and other language communities in the policy process (that is, it is not a forum on the policy of language, but the language of policy).
See you in Memphis,
Joe Heyman
