Does Parolee Drug Testing Influence Employment and Education Outcomes? Evidence from a Randomized Experiment with Noncompliance
Journal of Quantitative Criminology, Volume 24, Number 1 / March, 2008, Pages 93-123
http://digbig.com/4wmmx
Beau Kilmer
"Despite the ubiquity of drug testing in criminal justice settings, there is little experimental evidence suggesting that testing reduces drug use or engenders pro-social behaviour. This paper estimates the effect of parolee drug testing on labour and education outcomes with data from a randomised experiment involving 1,958 young parolees. It provides the first estimates in the literature suggesting that drug testing with graduated sanctions can improve short-run employment and education outcomes for parolees."

Citizenship, reproduction and the state: international marriage and human rights
Citizenship Studies, Volume 12, Issue 1 February 2008 , pages 45 - 54
http://digbig.com/4wmkb
Bryan S. Turner
"The relationship between citizenship, marriage and family has often been overlooked in the social and political theory of citizenship. Intimate domestic life is associated with the private sphere, partly because reproduction itself is thought to depend on the private choices of individuals. While feminist theory has challenged this division between private and public, the absence of any systematic thinking about familial relations, reproduction and citizenship is puzzling."
