Studies investigating college views largely neglect the Black advantaged and specifically the role of parents in the college search process. Drawing on interviews with upper, upper-middle-, and middle-class parents, this paper investigates how Black advantaged parents view their children’s college options. In an anti-black and credentialed society, parents contend with the consequences of where their children enroll in college and the names their degrees bear. Black advantaged parents’ views of their children’s college options reflect a set of dilemmas relative to college choices. As college graduates, parents recognize that degrees from HBCUs are weighed down by racial stigma and institutional anti-blackness. Fears about anti-black perceptions of HBCUs fuel parental concerns about racial discrimination post-graduation. Yet, parents also recognize that as students on historically white campuses their children are at risk of experiences with anti-black racism while enrolled in college. This article describes the challenge of antiblackness as multi-dimensional, impacting parents’ attention both to their children’s experiences as graduates and as students. This paper offers implications for black parenting, decision-making, and higher education.
调查大学观点的研究在很大程度上忽视了黑人的优势,尤其是父母在大学搜索过程中的作用。本文通过对上层、中上层和中产阶级父母的采访,调查了黑人父母如何看待孩子的大学选择。在一个反黑人和有资格证书的社会里,父母要为孩子在哪里上大学以及他们的学位名称所带来的后果而斗争。黑人父母对孩子大学选择的看法反映了与大学选择相关的一系列困境。作为大学毕业生,家长们认识到,HBCU的学位受到种族污名和机构反黑人的影响。对HBCU反黑人观念的担忧加剧了父母对毕业后种族歧视的担忧。然而,家长们也认识到,作为历史上白人校园的学生,他们的孩子在上大学时面临着遭遇反黑人种族主义的风险。这篇文章从多方面描述了反单身的挑战,影响了父母对孩子作为毕业生和学生经历的关注。这篇论文为黑人的育儿、决策和高等教育提供了启示。

Abstract Sociology brings cultural and performative explanations to studies of populism and democracy. My research contributes to this trend by introducing feminist ethnomethodology into studying authoritarian populism and explaining its interactional mechanisms. I find that authoritarian populism unfolds as intensified boundary work in everyday life. Based on 96 in-depth interviews and ten months of urban bus ethnography in Istanbul, Turkey, I explain how this intense boundary work produces social discomfort in daily life through orienting toward, assessing in terms of, and enforcing conformity against a normative and binary populist mentality. Revealing this process explicates why civilian disciplinary actions intensify along with formal state repression. Regime loyalists and ethnic majorities experience and manage social discomfort more leniently than regime opponents and marginalized communities who are also dealing with the fear of state and civilian threats. There are three ways of negotiating social discomfort. Distancing from previously taken-for-granted interactions is widespread; marginalized communities censor the presentation of self, and regime loyalists display symbols of power reflecting the “native and national” mentality. The findings of this article suggest that social discomfort is a common denominator for prolonged authoritarian populism(s).
社会学为民粹主义和民主的研究提供了文化和行为的解释。我的研究通过将女性主义民族方法论引入威权民粹主义研究并解释其相互作用机制,为这一趋势做出了贡献。我发现,威权民粹主义在日常生活中随着边界工作的加剧而展开。基于在土耳其伊斯坦布尔进行的96次深度访谈和10个月的城市公交民族志研究,我解释了这种激烈的边界工作如何通过对规范和二元民粹主义心态的导向、评估和强制遵从,在日常生活中产生社会不适。揭示这一过程解释了为什么民事纪律行动随着正式的国家镇压而加剧。忠于政权的人和占多数的少数民族比反对政权的人和被边缘化的群体更宽容地经历和处理社会不安,后者也在处理对国家和平民威胁的恐惧。有三种处理社交不适的方法。人们普遍疏远以前习以为常的互动;被边缘化的社群审查自我的呈现,忠于政权的人展示权力的象征,反映出“本土和民族”的心态。本文的研究结果表明,社会不适是长期威权民粹主义的共同特征。

Wealth and the Transition to Motherhood 财富与母亲身份的转变

Wealth, a significant dimension of inequality that captures both financial security and social position, shapes patterns of family formation. This study evaluates the role of wealth in the transition to motherhood. We argue that wealth is particularly relevant to when women become mothers, and whether their first birth is desired or undesired. Leveraging longitudinal panel data from the NLSY79 (n=2,382), we find that net worth is linked with a higher risk of a desired first birth and lower risk of an undesired first birth in the subsequent year. These countervailing effects are obscured when desired and undesired births are combined. Our study adds another important dimension to existing research by highlighting the distinct effects of both assets and debts, components of net worth that are typically obscured in aggregate measures. This analysis reveals that having financial assets, such as a savings account, are associated with a lower risk of undesired first birth in the next year, while unsecured consumer debts, such as credit cards, are associated with a lower risk of desired first births in the subsequent year. Our findings have important implications for social stratification in family formation given rising wealth inequality among families with children.
财富是不平等的一个重要方面,它涵盖了经济保障和社会地位,塑造了家庭的形成模式。这项研究评估了财富在向母亲转变过程中的作用。我们认为,财富与女性何时成为母亲,以及她们的第一个孩子是想要的还是不想要的特别相关。利用NLSY79(n=2382)的纵向面板数据,我们发现净值与期望的第一次分娩风险较高和下一年不希望的第一次生育风险较低有关。当想要的和不想要的分娩结合在一起时,这些抵消作用就被掩盖了。我们的研究通过强调资产和债务的不同影响,为现有研究增加了另一个重要方面,这些资产和债务是净值的组成部分,通常在总量衡量中被掩盖。这项分析表明,拥有储蓄账户等金融资产与下一年意外第一胎的风险较低有关,而信用卡等无担保消费者债务与下一年度预期第一胎的低风险有关。鉴于有子女家庭的财富不平等加剧,我们的研究结果对家庭形成中的社会分层具有重要意义。

Social Triage and Exclusions in Community Services for the Criminalized 社会分类和社区服务中对罪犯的排斥
IF 3.2 2区 社会学 Q1 SOCIOLOGY Pub Date : 2023-07-15 DOI: 10.1093/socpro/spad035
Marianne Quirouette
This article examines perspectives and practices related to social triage and the exclusion of criminalized and marginalized individuals in community services such as shelters, mental health, substance use, and court supports. Based on two years of fieldwork and interviews with 105 practitioners, I analyze narratives and practices related to working with people described as having (or being) complex, high-needs, or high-risk. I show that individual factors, such as risk, need, or responsivity, are but one type of factor considered when practitioners make decisions about triage or service eligibility. Building from theory about the governance of “risk” and “risky people,” I examine how organizational and systemic factors shape individualized understandings of and responses to risk. I argue that given current practices in under-resourced community supports, triage and resulting exclusions exacerbate social problems and contribute to punitive exclusions, especially for those who seek services, supports, or housing but have records of sexual offense, fire setting, drug use, violence, self-harm or so-called non-compliance. Examining these dynamics bolsters claims that we should shift the responsibilizing gaze upwards to pressure institutional and state bodies who could transform the landscape for practitioners and their clients.
本文探讨了与社会分类以及在社区服务(如庇护所、精神健康、物质使用和法院支持)中排斥犯罪和边缘化个人相关的观点和实践。基于两年的实地考察和对105名从业人员的采访,我分析了与被描述为具有(或正在)复杂、高需求或高风险的人一起工作的叙述和实践。我表明,个体因素,如风险,需求,或响应,只是一种类型的因素考虑当从业者作出决定时,分流或服务资格。从“风险”和“有风险的人”的治理理论出发,我研究了组织和系统因素如何塑造个人对风险的理解和反应。我认为,鉴于目前资源不足的社区支持的做法,分诊和由此产生的排斥加剧了社会问题,并导致了惩罚性的排斥,特别是对那些寻求服务、支持或住房但有性侵犯、纵火、吸毒、暴力、自残或所谓不遵守规定记录的人。对这些动态的研究支持了这样一种说法,即我们应该将负责任的目光向上转移,向能够为从业者及其客户改变环境的机构和国家机构施加压力。

Armed Citizens on the Border: How Guns Fuel Anti-Immigration Politics in America 边境上的武装公民:枪支如何推动美国的反移民政治
IF 3.2 2区 社会学 Q1 SOCIOLOGY Pub Date : 2023-07-11 DOI: 10.1093/socpro/spad034

To make a nation on stolen land using enslaved labor, the early American state relied on gun and immigration policy to create a well-armed white settler population. This legacy continues to animate modern conservativism, which is staked on supporting gun-friendly and anti-immigrant policies. Despite this history and ongoing political reality, however, the sociology of migration has largely ignored the relationship between firearms and immigration politics. To explore this relationship, the current study draws on 20 months of ethnographic data from the U.S.-Mexico border. I show how contemporary American gun culture bolsters anti-immigrant organizations through two mechanisms. First, gun shows and shooting ranges are important sites of recruitment among anti-immigrant groups. Second, the thrill of handling firearms mitigates the monotony of everyday anti-immigrant activism, while also easing the disenchantment that participants may otherwise feel about the effectiveness of their actions in bringing about long-term change. The article concludes by urging scholars of American politics to be mindful of the legacies of settler-colonialism and to take seriously the reinforcing effects of guns on nativist politics.
为了在掠夺来的土地上利用奴役劳工建立一个国家,早期的美国依靠枪支和移民政策来创造一支装备精良的白人定居者。这一遗产继续推动着现代保守主义的发展,它支持枪支友好和反移民政策。然而,尽管有这样的历史和持续的政治现实,移民社会学在很大程度上忽略了枪支和移民政治之间的关系。为了探索这种关系,目前的研究利用了美国-墨西哥边境20个月的人种学数据。我展示了当代美国枪支文化如何通过两种机制支持反移民组织。首先,枪支展览和射击场是反移民团体招募人员的重要场所。其次,处理枪支的兴奋减轻了日常反移民活动的单调,同时也缓解了参与者对自己的行动在带来长期变化方面的有效性的幻灭感。文章最后敦促研究美国政治的学者注意定居者殖民主义的遗产,并认真对待枪支对本土主义政治的强化作用。

Using the conceptual tools of anti-Blackness and the Black habitus to analyze the interviews of 38 Black youth who lived and grew up in Baltimore City, this study contends that the negative associations placed on Black youth continue to dehumanize them and prevent them from the full embodiment of student status. This article explores Blackness and its relationship with the privileges and immunities of student status within America’s collective consciousness. Through the voices of Black youth, this article provides evidence that Black students in Baltimore have not been fully granted the immunity of student status. Instead, Black youth participants describe harm in their schools and neighborhoods, as well as a tenuous relationship between Blackness and “studentness.”

Can You Sing Your Way to Good Citizenship?: Recreational Association Structures and Member Political Participation 你能通过唱歌成为好公民吗?:康乐协会结构及会员政治参与

What is the relationship of recreational associations to the political engagement of their members? We answer this question using multilevel data on 25 community choirs and the 1,032 members within them. Using structural equation modelling, we model the relationships between recreational association structures and member political participation through member experiences along with countervailing selection effects. We find that selection dynamics are the primary driver of the relationship between recreational associations and member political activity. We also find some evidence that associations foster new political activity in members through an interpretive mechanism—but not through developmental mechanisms. Recreational associations with more-participatory structures and broader organizational identities lead some members to interpret their recreational activity as publicly-oriented. Adopting publicly-oriented interpretations is related to certain kinds of new political activity. The results suggest that, overall, recreational associations are having little impact on political participation; when they do, they do so not by teaching participants how to do civic work but by altering how members think about civic life.
娱乐协会与其成员的政治参与有什么关系?我们使用25个社区合唱团及其1032名成员的多层次数据来回答这个问题。使用结构方程模型,我们通过成员经验和抵消选择效应,对娱乐协会结构和成员政治参与之间的关系进行了建模。我们发现,选择动态是娱乐协会和会员政治活动之间关系的主要驱动因素。我们还发现一些证据表明,协会通过解释机制——而不是通过发展机制——在成员中促进新的政治活动。具有更多参与性结构和更广泛组织身份的娱乐协会导致一些成员将他们的娱乐活动解释为面向公众。采用面向公众的解释与某些新的政治活动有关。研究结果表明,总体而言,娱乐协会对政治参与的影响很小;当他们这样做时,他们不是通过教参与者如何做公民工作,而是通过改变成员对公民生活的看法。

Segregation and Group Threat: Specifying Hispanic-White Punishment Disparity 种族隔离与群体威胁:明确西班牙裔白人惩罚差异

Evidence of racial disparity in punishment has been pervasive in the U.S. criminal justice system. Furthermore, a growing body of literature suggests that racial and ethnic disparities in criminal punishment, typically motivated by group threat perspectives, vary in relation to social and contextual conditions of court jurisdictions. One important factor relevant to minority threat and intergroup contact is segregation, yet research on social contexts and criminal sentencing has largely ignored this feature of local social structure. However, segregation might condition the effects of minority population size on dominant group threat responses in social control. Focusing on Hispanic-White segregation, we assess competing hypotheses regarding segregation’s role in conditioning Hispanic-White punishment disadvantage. Pennsylvania, which has recently undergone significant population change related to these processes, presents a unique and valuable context for study. Analyses of statewide sentencing data from 2013–2017 along with Census and American Community Survey data, reveal that Hispanic-White residential segregation seems to foster greater Hispanic punishment disadvantage. Moreover, segregation specifies the association between local Hispanic population size and Hispanic-White incarceration disparity. In counties with both greater than average Hispanic population share and greater segregation, Hispanic defendants faced even greater incarceration disparities.
在美国刑事司法系统中,种族惩罚差异的证据随处可见。此外,越来越多的文献表明,刑事处罚中的种族和族裔差异,通常是由群体威胁观点引起的,因法院管辖权的社会和背景条件而异。与少数群体威胁和群体间接触相关的一个重要因素是隔离,但对社会背景和刑事判决的研究在很大程度上忽略了当地社会结构的这一特征。然而,种族隔离可能会影响少数民族人口规模对社会控制中主导群体威胁反应的影响。以西班牙裔白人种族隔离为重点,我们评估了关于种族隔离在调节西班牙白人惩罚劣势中的作用的相互竞争的假设。宾夕法尼亚州最近经历了与这些过程相关的重大人口变化,为研究提供了一个独特而有价值的背景。对2013-2017年全州量刑数据以及人口普查和美国社区调查数据的分析表明,西班牙裔白人的居住隔离似乎加剧了西班牙族裔在惩罚方面的劣势。此外,种族隔离规定了当地拉美裔人口规模与拉美裔白人监禁差异之间的联系。在西班牙裔人口比例高于平均水平且种族隔离程度更高的县,西班牙籍被告面临着更大的监禁差距。

Furthermore, a growing body of literature suggests that racial and ethnic disparities in criminal punishment, typically motivated by group threat perspectives, vary in relation to social and contextual conditions of court jurisdictions. One important factor relevant to minority threat and intergroup contact is segregation, yet research on social contexts and criminal sentencing has largely ignored this feature of local social structure. However, segregation might condition the effects of minority population size on dominant group threat responses in social control. Focusing on Hispanic-White segregation, we assess competing hypotheses regarding segregation’s role in conditioning Hispanic-White punishment disadvantage. Pennsylvania, which has recently undergone significant population change related to these processes, presents a unique and valuable context for study. Analyses of statewide sentencing data from 2013–2017 along with Census and American Community Survey data, reveal that Hispanic-White residential segregation seems to foster greater Hispanic punishment disadvantage.

Black children are disproportionately represented among the children of incarcerated mothers and fathers in the United States. Research has largely focused on negative life outcomes (e.g., incarceration, negative behaviors, school dropout rates) of these children. Recently, studies have begun to look at success; however, children of incarcerated parents are typically placed into a homogenous group without considering racial implications. Using a critical race theoretical perspective, this study highlights the counternarrative of success by analyzing 59 in-depth interviews. Findings center on the ways adult Black children of incarcerated parents define success, which differs from middle-class, Eurocentric definitions of economic success, college graduation, marriage, and children as the success indicators. Success in relationships, community, education, and mental health emerged as the themes that define success. Findings show that their relationship with others (including their incarcerated parent), giving back to the community, educational experiences, and improving their mental health were indicators that they have “made it.” With support from their personal networks, they can succeed despite institutional and structural barriers. This study may assist policymakers, organizations, and schools with shifting societal perceptions to tailor resources for Black children of incarcerated parents to help invest in their futures.
在美国,黑人儿童在被监禁的父母的子女中所占比例过高。研究主要集中在这些儿童的负面生活结果(如监禁、负面行为、辍学率)上。最近,研究开始着眼于成功;然而,被监禁父母的孩子通常被安置在一个同质的群体中,而不考虑种族影响。本研究运用批判性种族理论的视角,通过分析59次深度访谈,突出了成功的反叙事。研究结果集中在父母被监禁的成年黑人子女对成功的定义上,这与中产阶级对经济成功、大学毕业、婚姻和儿童作为成功指标的欧洲中心定义不同。人际关系、社区、教育和心理健康方面的成功成为定义成功的主题。研究结果表明,他们与他人(包括被监禁的父母)的关系、回馈社区、教育经历和改善心理健康都是他们“成功”的标志。在个人网络的支持下,他们可以克服体制和结构障碍取得成功。这项研究可能有助于政策制定者、组织和学校改变社会观念,为被监禁父母的黑人儿童量身定制资源,帮助他们投资于未来。
