“…The intensification of nursing work is said to be the result of the infiltration of neoliberal ideology into the management of health care (Selberg, 2013; Willis et al., 2018). Neoliberalism is broadly understood as economic liberalization which includes privatization, deregulation, reductions in government spending to the public sector, and is associated with laissez‐faire economic liberalism and free market economy (Haymes, Vidal de Haymes, & Miller, 2015). Neoliberal agendas are increasingly having an impact on the health‐care sector in the form of managerialism (Mercille, 2018).…”

Aims: To provide a conceptual update on change fatigue in nursing as it relates to rapid and continuous change implementation. This doctoral dissertation examined nurses' experiences of rapid and continuous organizational change, with a core component of the study examining the concept of change fatigue. Background: Change fatigue is understood as the overwhelming feelings of stress, exhaustion and burnout fuelled by feelings of ambivalence and powerlessness associated with rapid and continuous change in the workplace. Change fatigue may cause workers to become withdrawn and greatly influences their decision to leave the workplace and even their profession. Little research to date has explored change fatigue in nurses. Methods: Were qualitative in nature. Design: A critical hermeneutic approach was used. Face-to-face interviews were conducted with 14 Registered Nurses. Open-ended questions were used. Theoretical thematic analysis and inductive analysis of data were completed using Brown and Gilligan's voice-centred relational method. The study spanned from 2015-2018. Results: Nurses did experience many of the core elements of change fatigue noted in the non-nursing literature, including exhaustion, apathy, powerlessness, and burnout. Two additional themes emerged pertaining to nurses' understandings of why they were experiencing change fatigue. These themes included the intensification of nursing work and repeated and ongoing self-sacrifice. Conclusion: Participants offered important insight into an emergent concept in the discipline of nursing. Impact: The negative experiences associated with change fatigue are important for administrators and other stakeholders to recognize and acknowledge, as they must work to alleviate change fatigue in their institutions to preserve the well-being of the nursing workforce. This knowledge is also important to nursing scholars, who may further research the topic and embed it into nursing curricula.

“…The way Canada resettles refugees is becoming increasingly entrenched in neoliberalism, where governments shift responsibility for various aspects of communal welfare from federal and provincial governments and into the private sector (Haymes, et al, 2014). How does this work with refugees?…”

How Sexual and Gender-Based Violence Affects the Settlement Experiences Among Yazidi Refugee Women in Canada

2021

Gender and sexual violence is historically used as a weapon of war. Yazidi women resettled in Canada directly from northern Iraq after the 2014 Daesh-led attacks in the Sinjar region. This direct resettlement experience makes the Yazidi refugees a very distinct group from a resettlement perspective. The severe human rights violations and sexual and gender-based violence they have experienced has affected both their physical and mental health. However, research on pre-arrival trauma and its impact on resettlement has been limited to individual post-arrival psychological interventions without considering how pre-arrival trauma experiences may affect their overall settlement experience. Our paper focuses on the settlement challenges and needs of 21 Yazidi women resettled in the four Canadian cities with the largest Yazidi communities. Because the resettlement of the Yazidi often happened within weeks after their release from captivity, the structural deficiencies within the Canadian settlement network revealed challenges for resettlement organizations in terms of how they assist those with acute trauma. We argue that although the Canadian resettlement program is generous in many ways, it falls short of adequately addressing trauma at the acute stage, especially sexual and gender-based violence as experienced by the Yazidi women and children. Our analysis reveals that single-female-headed families, particularly those with young children, have a difficult time navigating the resettlement system in Canada. We have identified the resettlement experiences of Yazidi women and recommend resettlement to happen in three stages, to account for the acute level of trauma this particular group faces. The first stage lasts between six weeks and three months as many women require more dedicated support from settlement providers for housing, language, and health. The second stage is a period of adjustment which occurs within the next eighteen months, depending on the available support these refugee women have to navigate the different settlement services. The third stage begins sometime after the second year when many women can start navigating the social support, education and health systems independently. Thinking of how SGBV may influence the resettlement process in these three stages is a good way for us to consider the additional assistance that may be needed and how they may better access resettlement services.

“…Following the Welfarist period of the Depression and World War II era, there came a great resurgence of classical liberal economic thought. These liberal economic ideals of free trade and free market capitalism permeated policy making and global development strategy of the late 20 th and 21 st century (Haymes et al, 2015). The new incarnation of liberal economic principles was coined Neoliberalism by Friedrich von Hayek, during the 1930s (Jones, 2012.…”

(Un)due Credit: Evaluating the Microfinance Craze

Microfinance seeks to address the systemic global wealth inequalities that result from financial exclusion. Over the most recent decades, the constitution of the microfinance industry has shifted from primarily non-profit institutions to commercially funded, for-profit institutions. Although poverty alleviation impact assessments have been both inconclusive and conflicting, microfinance has continued to proliferate at a rapid rate, receiving enthusiastic accolades from the global development community. This anomaly is explored through an examination of the neoliberal paradigms that microfinance serves to reinforce. Though microfinance has maintained a progressive reputation, in practice it has proven to be a poverty alleviation tactic that fortifies the neoliberal status quo and the existing global economic order.
