The strength of weak ties is among the most important theories in the social sciences. One paradoxical element of the theory has been widely understood and valued—that weak ties connect disparate regions of social structure. Less appreciated, however, is the arguably more paradoxical implication that someone only weakly connected to another would provide value beyond that which is provided by the recipient’s (ego’s) strong ties. Once this paradoxical feature of the theory and associated empirical literatures is acknowledged, the interests of the resource provider (alter) demand consideration. To do so faithfully requires first, the concession that different types of content can be transmitted across ties (e.g., financial, informational, physical, social) and content varies in important ways that relate to alter’s interests and concerns. This article considers social network content and the strength of ties that provide different forms of it. The case of startups is used as a fruitful strategic research site because of the varied resources required at various stages of the startup process. Novel insights are proposed concerning what content flows across different types of social relationships in the context of “nascent” entrepreneurship. Examples from other contexts such as job search are also discussed to exemplify scope. Importantly, this article takes the perspective of the resource provider, alter, and considers her concerns about trust, misuse, and unauthorized transfer in dyadic exchange. In the process, a second paradoxical feature of the theory is identified and theorized, which usefully reveals the boundaries of exchange.
弱联系的强弱是社会科学中最重要的理论之一。该理论的一个矛盾元素已经被广泛理解和重视,即薄弱的联系将社会结构的不同区域联系起来。然而,人们不太欣赏的是一种可以说更矛盾的暗示,即一个人与另一个人的联系很弱,就会提供超出接受者(自我)强大联系所提供的价值。一旦理论和相关经验文献的这种矛盾特征得到承认,资源提供者的利益就会改变需求考虑。要做到这一点,首先需要做出让步,即不同类型的内容可以通过关系(例如,财务、信息、物理、社交)进行传输,并且内容在与alter的兴趣和担忧相关的重要方面有所不同。本文考虑了社交网络的内容和提供不同形式社交网络的纽带的强度。创业案例被用作一个富有成效的战略研究网站,因为创业过程的各个阶段需要不同的资源。关于“新生”创业背景下不同类型的社会关系中的内容流动,提出了新的见解。还讨论了求职等其他背景下的例子,以举例说明范围。重要的是,本文从资源提供者的角度出发,改变并考虑了她对二元交换中的信任、滥用和未经授权的转移的担忧。在这个过程中,该理论的第二个悖论特征被识别和理论化,这有助于揭示交换的边界。

On the Ambivalence of the Aphorism in Sociological Theory 论社会学理论中警句的矛盾心理

Sociologists have long been taken by certain pithy expressions from the founders of the discipline. We propose here both a new explanation for the endurance of these statements as well as an analysis of the power, limitations, and possibilities of aphorisms. By drawing from the critical scholarship concerned with aphorisms, we demonstrate that some of the allure of the classical sociological texts derives from their form, and particularly their reliance on the relative autonomy of the aphorism. Through examining Marx’s “opiate of the people,” Weber’s “iron cage,” and, briefly, two more contemporary sociological aphorisms, we suggest that aphorisms have an ambivalent role in sociological theory: they make claims memorable even as they potentially oversimplify complex arguments. Yet that very simplification can provide a point of focus for productive misreading and reinterpretation.
长期以来,社会学家一直被这门学科创始人的某些精辟表述所吸引。我们在此提出一种新的解释,解释这些警句的持久性,并分析警句的力量、局限性和可能性。通过借鉴与警句有关的批判性学术,我们证明了经典社会学文本的一些吸引力来自于它们的形式,特别是它们对警句相对自主性的依赖。通过考察马克思的“人民鸦片”、韦伯的“铁笼”,以及另外两条当代社会学格言,我们认为格言在社会学理论中扮演着矛盾的角色:它们使主张令人难忘,即使它们可能过度简化复杂的论点。然而,这种简化可能会为有效的误读和重新解释提供一个焦点。

Transitional Temporality 过渡临时性

Sewell (1996b) identified three temporalities that underlie many social scientific accounts. This article identifies a fourth: transitional temporality. This approach is inspired by Polanyi’s ([1944] 2001) comparative analysis of the rate of change of economic transformation surrounding the commodification of land and labor. Following Polanyi, transitional temporality focuses not on the endpoints of social transformation (as in teleological approaches) nor on moments of transformation (as in eventful approaches) but on the potentially lengthy transitions between structures. Whereas eventful temporality equates agency with the choices made by individuals during relatively rare events, transitional temporality identifies the capacity for agents to alter the rate of change and, in so doing, to prevent or bring about events. This approach recovers Polanyi’s oft-ignored analysis of the state’s role in modulating the rate of change and foregrounds the social costs of disruption and dislocation resulting from abrupt transitions.
Sewell (1996b)确定了许多社会科学解释的三个暂时性基础。本文确定了第四种:过渡性暂时性。这种方法的灵感来自波兰尼([1944]2001)对围绕土地和劳动力商品化的经济转型变化率的比较分析。继波兰尼之后,过渡时间性既不关注社会转型的终点(如目的论方法),也不关注转型的时刻(如事件方法),而是关注结构之间潜在的漫长过渡。事件时间性将代理等同于个体在相对罕见的事件中所做的选择,而过渡性时间性则确定了代理改变变化速度的能力,并以此来防止或带来事件。这种方法恢复了波兰尼经常被忽视的分析,即国家在调节变化速度方面的作用,并强调了突然转变造成的破坏和混乱的社会成本。

Profit as Social Rent: Embeddedness and Stratification in Markets 利润作为社会租金:市场的嵌入性和分层性

This article shows how research on the social structure of markets may contribute to the analysis the growing income inequality in contemporary capitalist economies. The author proposes a theoretical link between embeddedness and social stratification by discussing the role of institutions and networks in markets for the distribution of economic profits between firms. The author claims that we must understand profit and free competition as opposites, as economic theory does. In the main part of the article the author illustrates six typical mechanisms of rent extraction from networks or formal and symbolic rules that embed markets. They emerge from material as well as symbolical access to and influence on the orientation of other market actors. Social structures in markets lead to unequal chances for rent extraction, even if actors produce them for coordination rather than for accumulation purposes. This is how market sociology and theory of capitalism can be linked more closely.
本文展示了对市场社会结构的研究如何有助于分析当代资本主义经济中日益增长的收入不平等。作者通过讨论制度和网络在企业间经济利润分配市场中的作用,提出了嵌入性和社会分层之间的理论联系。作者主张,我们必须像经济理论那样,把利润和自由竞争理解为对立面。在文章的主要部分,作者阐述了从嵌入市场的网络或正式和象征性规则中提取租金的六种典型机制。它们源于对其他市场行为者的物质和象征性的接触和对其取向的影响。市场中的社会结构导致了租金提取机会的不平等,即使参与者是为了协调而不是为了积累而生产租金。这就是市场社会学和资本主义理论可以更紧密地联系在一起的原因。

Overflowing Channels: How Democracy Didn’t Work as Planned (and Perhaps a Good Thing It Didn’t) 渠道溢出:民主如何没有按计划运作(也许这是一件好事)
IF 4.4 1区 社会学 Q1 SOCIOLOGY Pub Date : 2019-06-25 DOI: 10.1177/0735275119850866

When eighteenth-century revolutionary elites set about designing new political orders, they drew on commonplace theoretical understandings of “democracy” as highly undesirable. They therefore designed government institutions in which popular participation was to be extremely limited. The new political constructions, in both France and the United States, never worked as planned. The mobilizations of the revolutionary era did not vanish as the constitutional designers hoped. More profoundly, challenging social movements were unintentionally woven into the fabric of modern democracy due to the confluence of three processes: The legitimacy claims of democratic powerholders also legitimate protest; the institutional architecture of modern democracy, especially the allocation of office through elections, provides structural support for social movements as well; and the practices of democracy recurrently trigger politically powerful emotions that energize protest. Understanding democracy therefore demands a theory of the interplay of social movements and governing institutions from the foundational moment.
当18世纪的革命精英开始设计新的政治秩序时,他们利用了对“民主”的普遍理论理解,认为这是非常不受欢迎的。因此,他们设计的政府机构使民众的参与受到极大限制。在法国和美国,新的政治建设从来没有按计划进行。革命时代的动员并没有像宪法设计者所希望的那样消失。更深刻的是,由于三个过程的汇合,具有挑战性的社会运动无意中融入了现代民主的结构:民主掌权者的合法性主张也使抗议合法化;现代民主的体制结构,特别是通过选举分配职务,也为社会运动提供了结构上的支持;民主的实践经常引发强烈的政治情绪,激发抗议。因此,理解民主需要一种社会运动和治理机构从一开始就相互作用的理论。

Toward a Hermeneutic Model of Cultural Globalization: Four Lessons from Translation Studies 走向文化全球化的解释学模式——翻译研究的四点启示

Many scholars study the global diffusion of culture, looking at how institutions spread culture around the world or at how intermediaries (or “cultural brokers”) adapt foreign culture in the local context. This research can tell us much about brokers’ “cultural-matching” or “congruence-building” strategies. To date, however, few scholars have examined brokers’ interpretive work. In this article, the author argues that globalization research needs to pay more attention to interpretation. Building on translation studies, the author shows that brokers’ work is shaped by (1) how they imagine their dual roles, (2) how they imagine different parts of the world, (3) how they interpret a text’s intertextuality, and (4) how their audience imagines the foreign Other. In this way, the author lays the groundwork for a hermeneutic model of cultural globalization.
许多学者研究文化的全球传播,关注机构如何在世界各地传播文化,或者中介机构(或“文化经纪人”)如何在当地背景下适应外国文化。这项研究可以告诉我们很多关于经纪人的“文化匹配”或“和谐构建”策略。然而,迄今为止,很少有学者研究经纪人的解释工作。在本文中,作者认为全球化研究需要更多地关注解释。在翻译研究的基础上,作者发现经纪人的作品是由以下因素塑造的:(1)他们如何想象自己的双重角色,(2)他们如何设想世界的不同部分,(3)他们如何解释文本的互文性,以及(4)他们的观众如何想象外国的他者。以此为文化全球化的解释学模式奠定了基础。

Cabdrivers and Their Fares: Temporal Structures of a Linking Ecology 出租车司机及其车费:连接生态的时间结构

The author argues that behind the apparent randomness of interactions between cabdrivers and their fares in Warsaw is a temporal structure. To capture this temporal structure, the author introduces the notion of a linking ecology. He argues that the Warsaw taxi market is a linking ecology, which is structured by religious time, state time, and family time. The author then focuses on waiting time, arguing that it too structures the interactions between cabdrivers and their fares. The author makes a processual argument that waiting time has been restructured by the postsocialist transformation, but only because this transformation has been continually encoded through the defensive and adaptive strategies of cabdrivers responding to the repetitive and unique events located across the social space. The author concludes with the claim that linking ecologies are a recurring structure of the social process and that they form the backbone of globalization, financialization, and mediatization.
作者认为,在华沙出租车司机和车费之间明显的随机性互动背后是一种时间结构。为了捕捉这种时间结构,作者引入了链接生态学的概念。他认为,华沙出租车市场是一个由宗教时间、国家时间和家庭时间构成的连接生态。然后,作者把重点放在了等待时间上,认为它也构成了出租车司机和乘客之间的互动。作者提出了一个过程性的论点,即等待时间已经被后社会主义转型所重构,但这只是因为这种转型已经通过出租车司机应对社会空间中重复和独特事件的防御和适应策略而不断编码。作者的结论是,连接生态是社会过程中反复出现的结构,它们构成了全球化、金融化和媒体化的支柱。

Talking Your Self into It: How and When Accounts Shape Motivation for Action 说服自己:账户如何以及何时形成行动动机

Following Mills, several prominent sociologists have encouraged researchers to analyze actors’ motive talk not as data on the subjective desires that move them to pursue particular ends but as post hoc accounts oriented toward justifying actions already undertaken. Combining insights from hermeneutic theories of the self and pragmatist theories of action, we develop a theoretical position that challenges dichotomous assumptions about whether motive accounts reflect either justifications or motivations for action, instead illustrating how they can migrate from one status to the other over time. We develop this perspective through a comparative analysis of actors’ involvements in two quite different careers of social action—religion and mixed martial arts—documenting both how and when justificatory talk about actors’ motives for initiating a course of action at one point in time became formative of their subjective motivations for sustaining these same courses of action at another.
继米尔斯之后,几位著名社会学家鼓励研究人员分析演员的动机谈话,而不是将其作为促使他们追求特定目的的主观欲望的数据,而是作为旨在证明已经采取的行动的事后陈述。结合自我解释学理论和实用主义行动理论的见解,我们提出了一个理论立场,挑战关于动机账户是否反映了行动的正当性或动机的二分法假设,而不是说明它们如何随着时间的推移从一种状态迁移到另一种状态。我们通过对演员参与两种截然不同的社会行动职业(宗教和混合武术)的比较分析来发展这一观点,记录了正当地谈论演员在某个时间点发起行动的动机是如何以及何时形成他们在另一个

Combining insights from hermeneutic theories of the self and pragmatist theories of action, we develop a theoretical position that challenges dichotomous assumptions about whether motive accounts reflect either justifications or motivations for action, instead illustrating how they can migrate from one status to the other over time. We develop this perspective through a comparative analysis of actors’ involvements in two quite different careers of social action—religion and mixed martial arts—documenting both how and when justificatory talk about actors’ motives for initiating a course of action at one point in time became formative of their subjective motivations for sustaining these same courses of action at another.","PeriodicalId":48131,"journal":{"name":"Sociological Theory","volume":"37 1","pages":"257 - 281"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2019-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/0735275119869959","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44177683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article proposes an abstract sociological model of stable patriarchal social relations and feminist social change. I describe a patriarchal equilibrium of gender inequality and propose an approach for thinking about how various kinds of interventions can short-circuit the system, pushing it onto a new equilibrium path. In particular, I focus on possible interventions into parental leave policy, describing their social structural and cultural ramifications as well as a range of objections to them. However, more important than the specific interventions proposed is the general model itself, which depicts reinforcing structures of patriarchal culture, gender inequality in labor markets, and gender inequality in the home—and moreover, how this model can evolve. It describes a feedback loop that can lock structures of gender inequality in place but also provides a means for considering the spaces available to both blunt the social reproduction of gender inequality and reinforce “genderless” social relations.
本文提出了一个关于稳定的父权社会关系和女权主义社会变革的抽象社会学模型。我描述了性别不平等的父权制平衡,并提出了一种方法来思考各种干预措施如何缩短系统,将其推向一条新的平衡道路。我特别关注对育儿假政策的可能干预,描述其社会结构和文化影响,以及对这些政策的一系列反对意见。然而,比提出的具体干预措施更重要的是一般模型本身,它描述了父权文化的强化结构、劳动力市场的性别不平等和家庭中的性别不公平,以及这种模型如何演变。它描述了一个反馈回路,可以将性别不平等的结构锁定在适当的位置,但也提供了一种考虑空间的方法,既可以削弱性别不平等在社会中的再现,又可以加强“无性别”的社会关系。
