Capture, commodify, kill
Slaughtering and processing animals on an industrial scale are complicated activities that are both highly prominent in the food system and intentionally concealed from the public. The structural violence enacted within this industry deserves attention as a direct form of state-corporate harm. To this end, this paper invokes Tombs and Whyte’s imaginaries of corporate crime to understand what they might call the “ceaseless repetition” through whic…
Regulatory theater in the pork industry
Not additive, not defined
The term 'mutual constitution' appears with regularity in scholarship on intersectionality, but what does it mean? We could not easily answer this question in the usual way - by reading books and articles about it - because the term has not received direct, widespread or sustained engagement in feminist theory. This led us to analyse a wide range of feminist scholarship - the entire set of 379 articles in women's studies journals that consider bo…
Food Fraud and the Partnership for a ‘Healthier’ America
A Healthy Bottom Line
Corporations rarely prioritize healthy communities over healthy profit margins, but their profits depend on community acceptance. This article reveals that in their quest to be perceived as legitimate citizens, some corporations co-opt the rhetorical tactics typically associated with social movement organizations to frame their profit-maximizing practices as the solution to the problem of childhood obesity. In this framing, explored here in an et…

Digesting Race, Class, and Gender
How are the ways that race organizes our lives related to the ways gender and class organize our lives? How might these organizing mechanisms conflict or work together? In Digesting Race, Class, and G
Beyond the Intersection
Few would argue that race, class, and gender are unrelated, now that scholars of inequality have spent decades making the once devalued but now widely accepted case that structures of oppression like these cannot be understood in isolation from one another. Yet the imagery on which the field has relied-race, class, and gender as 'intersecting' or 'interlocking'-has limited our ability to explore the characteristics of their relationships in empir…
Race-Class-Gender Theory
Time Off as Economic Capital
Moving from a gender-segregated job, like secretary, to a more integrated position can be quite difficult, primarily because the disadvantages that most segregated jobs confer accumulate over time to make it increasingly unlikely that a woman who is unhappy in her job will ever be able to find another kind of work. What scholars of cumulative disadvantage have not been able to explain, however, are the women who successfully leave segregated jobs…
Secretarial Work, Nurturing, and the Ethic of Service
Women who enjoy nurturing and serving others are often assumed to either be fulfilling their "natural" calling or to be stuck in an outdated and limiting gender role. Both interpretations ignore the social aspects of these activities. In this study, based on my interviews with 49 secretaries, I first highlight a small group of women who enjoy donning the characteristics of motherhood at their jobs. I analyze their approach to work not as an examp…
Parents on the job market
Who Gets the Good Jobs
I Would Never Be a Secretary
Gender affects us, but we also affect gender. This study reveals some of the ways women in two types of occupations-furniture sales and secretarial-shape the system of gender. As they struggle to define their identities within a segregated occupational structure, these women evoke notions of their differences from men and from other women, as well as their similarities to each group, in ways that are consistent with feminist theoretical positions…

Employment Chances in the Academic Job Market in Sociology
Do employment chances for academics differ based on the gender or race/ethnicity of the job seeker? We use data from a sample of positions in sociology filled during the 1991-92 school year to determine whether European-American women, minority women, and minority men are advantaged, disadvantaged, or similarly placed in relation to European-American men. We find no evidence suggesting that European-American men are significantly disadvantaged, o…
That Single-Mother Element
Many employers assess their workforces with gendered and racialized imagery that can put groups of workers and applicants at a disadvantage in the labor market. Based on 78 interviews with white employers in Atlanta, the author reveals that some employers use a complex but widely shared stereo-type of Black working-class women as single mothers to typify members of this group. These employers use this single-mother image to explain why they think…
