Scope and content

The sanctions and rewards project started in 1985 under the umbrella of the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIAR) (see the three boxes of material on the CIAR). I started with an outline of the project (file 2). The first stage was a symposium at Millcroft Inn in May 1986 (files 3-5). A number of distinguished experts from a range of disciplines (files 7-16) were invited to prepare papers which were presented before a group which consisted of those who would be involved in doing specific projects and others interested in the area (file 22). Throughout the project I kept spiral binders--29 in all-- of material that was of interest for all stages of the project (files 34-43). The U of T press published the papers in 1989 as Sanctions and Rewards in the Legal System (files 24-31), which was well received (files 32-33).

The next stage involved specific projects (file 44-51). In all but one case (Don Dewees), more than one person worked on the project. The projects ranged from tax compliance and securities regulation to family violence and prostitution. A paper on traffic safety, which is the subject of another set of boxes, was also included. There were a number of meetings of the group as a whole (file 44). The U of T Press published the collection in 1990 as Securing Compliance: Seven Case Studies (files 52-61)

The final stage was to be further projects (files 63-66), but for reasons that were set out in the CIAR files these were not attempted.

In 1986-87 I worked on an article that I called ‘View from the TeaMaster’ which analysed various use of sanctions and rewards that could be seen from the then TeaMaster shop on the corner of Davisville and Yonge, close to where I lived. The article was never completed. (files 67 and 68).
