How does material culture shape contentious politics? Things, we argue, influence political contention in ways that are reducible neither to struggles over meaning nor to the thingly aspect of things. The article combines pragmatic semiotics with insights on ritual practice and collective experience. By bringing together three often separate literatures – contentious politics, material culture, and affect – we suggest a thicker understanding of agency. Agency, this article contends, is distributed between primary human actors and objects, which exercise a degree of secondary agency. Our aim is to explore how affect is stored in and channelled through seemingly ordinary objects. Political actors use these affectively charged symbol-index-icons in pursuit of various objectives; specifically, material things are shown to enable and constrain episodes of contention. As a result, our understanding of contentious politics involves not only ideas, texts, and opportunity structures but also the objects that help make social and political change possible.
物质文化如何塑造有争议的政治?我们认为,事物影响政治争论的方式既不能简化为对意义的斗争,也不能简化为事物的事物方面。文章将实用符号学与仪式实践和集体经验的洞见相结合。通过将三个经常独立的文献——有争议的政治、物质文化和情感——汇集在一起,我们建议对代理有更深入的理解。本文认为,能动性分布在主要的人类行动者和客体之间,它们行使一定程度的次要能动性。我们的目的是探索情感是如何通过看似普通的物体储存和传递的。政治行为者使用这些充满情感的符号-索引-图标来追求各种目标;具体地说,物质性的东西被证明能够促成和限制争论的发生。因此,我们对有争议的政治的理解不仅涉及思想、文本和机会结构,还涉及有助于使社会和政治变革成为可能的对象。

Of babies, bathwater, and big data: Going beneath the surface of Franzén’s (2023) Google Trends recommendations 婴儿、洗澡水和大数据:从弗兰兹·萨曼(2023)谷歌趋势建议的表面下看

Franzén (2023 : 1) has warned of ‘big problems’ when researchers attempt to use Google Trends (GT) data. The evidence she provides is examined, additional evidence is obtained and analysed, and a new set of conclusions are derived. The anomalies previously encountered are due to a combination of factors, but can be explained by noting that Google samples its data to provide GT results, these data are also scaled, which can exacerbate variation between samples, and Denmark is a small country and Jakob Scharf a low-probability search term, both of which would increase variation in search probabilities provided by GT. When multiple samples are obtained and aggregated (medians are best for low-probability search terms), this variation is controlled, and a stable time series is derived. Researchers should not see GT as an easy source of data, but should do the work required to understand the data, and should use it, and interpret their results, within the limitations inherent in these data. It is important to aggregate multiple samples (preferably with the median for each time point) in order to obtain more stable estimates from GT.
Franzén(2023:1)警告说,当研究人员试图使用谷歌趋势(GT)数据时,会出现“大问题”。对她提供的证据进行了审查,获得并分析了其他证据,得出了一系列新的结论。以前遇到的异常是由多种因素造成的,但可以通过注意谷歌对其数据进行采样以提供GT结果来解释,这些数据也经过了缩放,这可能会加剧样本之间的差异,丹麦是一个小国,Jakob Scharf是一个低概率搜索词,这两种情况都会增加GT提供的搜索概率的变化。当获得并聚合多个样本时(中位数最适合低概率搜索项),这种变化得到控制,并导出稳定的时间序列。研究人员不应将GT视为一个简单的数据来源,而应在这些数据固有的限制范围内,完成理解数据所需的工作,并使用这些数据,解释他们的结果。为了从GT获得更稳定的估计,聚合多个样本(最好是每个时间点的中值)是很重要的。

Transmission of child removal stories Among Norwegian Somalis: An interactionist analysis of ethnic minority parents’ fears of child welfare services 挪威索马里人中儿童迁移故事的传播:少数民族父母对儿童福利服务恐惧的互动分析

Ethnic minority parents who are fearful of child welfare services (CWS) is an acknowledged social problem, but the existing academic understanding is limited. Interpretations in previous research have tended to highlight people's ‘dispositions’, typically cultural backgrounds, and lack of knowledge, or ‘structures’ like welfare and penal systems. More neglected is how CWS fears can be generated from interactional processes within groups. Building on extensive ethnography with Norwegian Somalis, a marginalized migrant group, we extend the sociological understanding of ethnic minority parents’ CWS fears. Relying on an interactionist theoretical framework, we centre Erving Goffman's interaction ritual (e.g., facework) and stigma, which we combine with Robert Putnam's bonding social capital. From this vantage point, we construct a ‘bottom-up’ theoretical model highlighting transmission of child removal stories in tight-knit social networks. Among Norwegian Somalis, fears emanate from a social process with four interconnected factors: (A) adversities and ‘tribal stigma’; (B) bonding social capital, for coping and self-respect; (C) children as a ‘lifeline’. Together these generate (D) wide diffusion of child removal stories, which perpetuates pervasive CWS fears. This model should productively inform comparative research.
对儿童福利服务感到恐惧的少数民族父母是一个公认的社会问题,但现有的学术理解是有限的。先前研究中的解释往往强调人们的“性格”,通常是文化背景和知识缺乏,或者福利和刑罚制度等“结构”。更被忽视的是CWS恐惧是如何从群体内的互动过程中产生的。在与挪威索马里人(一个被边缘化的移民群体)进行广泛的民族志研究的基础上,我们扩展了对少数民族父母CWS恐惧的社会学理解。基于互动主义的理论框架,我们将Erving Goffman的互动仪式(如面部表情)和污名化与Robert Putnam的联结社会资本相结合。从这个有利的角度来看,我们构建了一个“自下而上”的理论模型,突出了儿童迁移故事在紧密联系的社交网络中的传播。在挪威索马里人中,恐惧源于一个有四个相互关联因素的社会过程:(a)逆境和“部落耻辱”;(B) 联结社会资本,用于应对和自尊;(C) 儿童是“生命线”。这些共同产生了广泛传播的儿童迁移故事,使普遍存在的CWS恐惧永久化。这一模式应有效地为比较研究提供信息。

Generational differences in attitudes to meritocracy: Sources of change in valuing education, innate abilities, and hard work in Poland 对精英政治态度的代际差异:波兰重视教育、天生能力和努力工作的变化来源

Although the generational experiences of young adults are believed to have an enduring impact on their attitudes throughout the life course, it remains unclear whether periods of stability versus different types of radical social change lead to substantive generational differences. In this paper, we examine attitudes toward meritocracy of four generations in Poland whose young adulthood was spent in (a) the “Little Stabilization” period of the 1960s and early 1970s; (b) the economic and political crisis of the late 1970s and 1980s; (c) the turbulence of the political and economic transformation of the 1990s; and (d) the relative stability of the first decade of the 21st century after Poland's accession to the European Union. Our data come from surveys dating back to 1988, before the regime change in Poland, and until 2020. The results show changing attitudes toward the value of education, innate abilities, talent, and hard work in Poland. There is a generational effect on perceived meritocracy. The generation of people born in 1956–1959, who entered adult life during the deep crisis of the socialist state, expresses the greatest distrust in meritocracy. Findings suggest that the experience of spending one's youth and young adulthood in a relatively stable political and economic system, either socialist or capitalist, has a positive influence on meritocratic attitudes.
尽管年轻人的代际经历被认为对他们一生的态度有持久的影响,但尚不清楚稳定时期与不同类型的激进社会变革是否会导致实质性的代际差异。在本文中,我们研究了波兰四代人对精英政治的态度,他们的青年时期是在(a) 20世纪60年代和70年代初的“小稳定”时期度过的;(b) 1970年代末和1980年代的经济和政治危机;(c) 1990年代政治和经济转型的动荡;(d)波兰加入欧盟后21世纪头十年的相对稳定。我们的数据来自1988年波兰政权更迭之前的调查,一直持续到2020年。调查结果显示,在波兰,人们对教育价值、天赋、才能和努力工作的态度正在发生变化。对精英统治的认知存在代际效应。1956年至1959年出生的一代人,在社会主义国家深陷危机之际步入成年,他们对精英政治表达了最大的不信任。研究结果表明,在一个相对稳定的政治和经济体系中度过青年和成年期的经历,无论是社会主义还是资本主义,对精英主义的态度有积极的影响。

Public support for affirmative action policies favouring women and migrants in recruitment processes: An international survey experiment 公众对在招聘过程中有利于妇女和移民的平权行动政策的支持:一项国际调查实验

Affirmative action policies (AAP) polarise the public debate in Western democracies as they involve favouring one candidate at the cost of others because of their group membership. Against this backdrop, we ran a factorial survey experiment in Denmark, France and Germany on the introduction of a hypothetical regulation favouring women and immigrants with equal qualifications in the recruitment process for a management position (N = 4264; YouGov online panel). Our data show that support for AAP for women is significantly greater than for immigrants in all three countries. Moreover, support for AAP is much higher in France than in Germany and Denmark. Germans and Danes show similar low support for AAP for immigrants, while support for AAP for women is higher in Germany than Denmark. We conducted multilevel regression models to investigate the power of several attitudinal factors in explaining target group and country differences. Results show that respondents’ varying levels of ethnic and gender prejudice and perceived disadvantage entirely explain target group differences in support for AAP. Furthermore, differences between Germany and Denmark in the support of AAP for women are explained by different levels of prejudices and perceived disadvantage, and attitudes towards state intervention. However, these attitudinal variables cannot explain why support for AAP is much higher in France.
平权行动政策(AAP)使西方民主国家的公共辩论两极分化,因为它们涉及到由于其团体成员身份而以牺牲其他候选人为代价偏袒一名候选人。在这种背景下,我们在丹麦、法国和德国进行了一项因子调查实验,研究引入了一项假设性法规,在管理职位的招聘过程中有利于具有同等资格的女性和移民(N = 4264;YouGov在线小组)。我们的数据显示,在这三个国家,AAP对女性的支持明显大于对移民的支持。此外,法国对AAP的支持率远高于德国和丹麦。德国人和丹麦人对移民的AAP支持率相似,而德国对女性AAP的支持率高于丹麦。我们采用多水平回归模型来研究几种态度因素在解释目标群体和国家差异方面的力量。结果表明,受访者不同程度的种族和性别偏见以及感知到的劣势完全解释了目标群体对AAP支持的差异。此外,德国和丹麦在支持AAP方面的差异可以解释为不同程度的偏见和劣势,以及对国家干预的态度。然而,这些态度变量并不能解释为什么法国对AAP的支持率要高得多。

Conflict narrative, stigmatisation and strategic behaviour of religious scientists in the Argentinean scientific field 宗教科学家在阿根廷科学领域的冲突叙事、污名化和战略行为

Recent surveys show that most scientists do not perceive a conflict between science and religion. However, in many Western societies the “conflict narrative” prevails, which states that science grows at the expense of religion, and vice versa. Furthermore, evidence indicates the presence of stigmas against religion in many scientific fields of the West. Why do religious scientists feel discriminated in a field where several of their colleagues are not prejudiced against religion? Based on 22 in-depth interviews and 2 focus groups with Argentinean scientists, we show that the conflict narrative and the stigmatisation of religious scientists are present in the Argentinean scientific field. We argue that the conflict narrative is learned as part of the shared understandings of the field during the socialisation of Argentinian scientists in public institutions, where the secular norm prevails. Religious scientists adapt by strategically hiding their beliefs from their colleagues. This behaviour means that the narrative is not challenged in public, thus generating a feedback loop where the notion that there is a broad consensus about religion in the field reinforces the incentives for the strategic interaction of religious scientists.
最近的调查显示,大多数科学家并不认为科学与宗教之间存在冲突。然而,在许多西方社会,“冲突叙事”盛行,认为科学的发展是以牺牲宗教为代价的,反之亦然。此外,有证据表明,在西方许多科学领域存在对宗教的污名。为什么宗教科学家在一个他们的一些同事对宗教没有偏见的领域感到受到歧视?基于对阿根廷科学家的22次深度访谈和2次焦点小组访谈,我们发现冲突叙事和对宗教科学家的污名化存在于阿根廷的科学领域。我们认为,在世俗规范盛行的公共机构中,阿根廷科学家的社会化过程中,冲突叙事是作为对该领域的共同理解的一部分而学习的。宗教科学家通过有策略地向同事隐瞒自己的信仰来适应。这种行为意味着这种叙述不会在公众面前受到挑战,从而产生了一个反馈循环,在这个循环中,关于宗教在该领域存在广泛共识的概念加强了宗教科学家进行战略性互动的动机。

This behaviour means that the narrative is not challenged in public, thus generating a feedback loop where the notion that there is a broad consensus about religion in the field reinforces the incentives for the strategic interaction of religious scientists.","PeriodicalId":47591,"journal":{"name":"Acta Sociologica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43931044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To study discrimination in labour/housing markets, and among street-level bureaucrats in the welfare state, present both theoretical and methodological challenges. In the sociological study of discrimination, experiments have seldom been used to study how street-level bureaucrats make their decisions. The context of decision-making is different in the state and in markets, but experimental methods can provide new knowledge of how perceptions of deservingness may potentially lead to discrimination in the welfare state. Using a vignette experiment on Norwegian street-level bureaucrats ( N = 645), we investigate if their perceptions of recipients’ ethnic background, and perceived ‘unfavourable’ behaviour, affect the propensity to impose a time-limited termination of unemployment benefits due to non-compliance with activity requirements. The experiment finds that the propensity to terminate the unemployment benefit was initially less for the recipient with an ethnic minority name, compared to the recipient with an ethnic majority name. However, when information about ‘unfavourable’ behaviour was added to the vignette, the propensity to sanction the ethnic minority recipient strongly increased. The results suggest that perceived deservingness-traits are crucial for understanding possible discrimination when street-level bureaucrats face ethnic minorities in the welfare state. Ethnic markers interact with markers of ‘deservingness’. Theoretical and methodological implications when studying potential discrimination among street-level bureaucrats are discussed.
研究劳动力/住房市场中的歧视,以及福利国家街头官僚之间的歧视,既面临理论上的挑战,也面临方法上的挑战。在歧视的社会学研究中,很少使用实验来研究街头官僚是如何做出决定的。国家和市场的决策背景不同,但实验方法可以提供新的知识,了解对应得的看法如何可能导致福利国家的歧视。通过对挪威街头官僚(N=645)的一项小插曲实验,我们调查了他们对领取者种族背景的看法和感知到的“不利”行为是否会影响因不遵守活动要求而强制终止失业救济金的倾向。实验发现,与少数族裔姓名的领取者相比,少数族裔姓名领取者最初终止失业救济金的倾向较小。然而,当有关“不利”行为的信息被添加到小插曲中时,制裁少数族裔接受者的倾向大大增加。研究结果表明,当街头官僚在福利国家中面对少数民族时,感知到的应得特征对于理解可能的歧视至关重要。民族标记与“值得尊敬”的标记相互作用。讨论了研究街头官僚之间潜在歧视的理论和方法意义。
