Don't Research about Us without Us
Communities marginalized along economic, social, and political fronts are frequently the objects of academic research, particularly among scholars who study social problems. However, given the many obstacles that prevent people from vulnerable populations from obtaining graduate degrees and becoming formal researchers, much of our knowledge about vulnerable groups is written by outside academics rather than those from the communities being studie…
Re-organizing for public value and reclaiming post-capitalist possibilities
This editorial introduces the Special Issue on public value, urging scholars to ask fundamental questions about what public value organizing entails. It proposes key conceptual dimensions to foster public value thinking, highlighting the contested nature of the concept and the subjective understanding of public value among different publics. Themes emerging from the contributions to the Special Issue include re-imagining the State’s role in post-…
How the Police and Armed Forces Construct Gender on Social Media
Although social media is the new frontier for policing, little research has examined how state security forces construct gender online. To address this gap, we analyzed 315 TikTok videos posted by law enforcement agencies in El Salvador and Honduras. We find that gender is constructed by (1) showcasing (or not) female officers; (2) displaying masculinized and feminized policing practices; (3) advancing gendered ideas through editorial additions. …
The Impact of the Pandemic on Poor Urban Neighborhoods
The pandemic provoked by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) devastated poor urban neighborhoods across the world, particularly in the Global South, although empirical data on this remain limited. In this article, the authors present data collected through a mixed-methods, participatory action research approach on the impacts of the pandemic in Cidade de Deus, a 'favela,' or poor informal settlement, in Rio de Janeiro. The authors find that t…
Decolonizing Sociology Through Collaboration, Co‐Learning and Action
Despite important efforts by postcolonial scholars to “decolonize” sociology, this endeavor remains limited by the scaffolding of empirical research, or the institutionalized practices and beliefs embedded within data collection and researchers' relationship to research subjects. In its current form, this scaffolding excludes “subaltern” voices from critiquing and extending sociological theory, deriving benefits from the study, or informing socia…

Confronting chronic shocks
While much of the literature on social resilience is concerned with how cities overcome “shocks” to the urban system, much less is known about the strategies of survival and adaptation among its poorest residents. We argue that residents in poor, often informal, neighborhoods are faced with chronic shocks, or constantly recurring disasters, such as floods, severe illness, or violent police invasions. In this paper, we draw on focus groups, partic…

Rethinking Favela Governance
Since the 1980s, when drug gangs became embedded in Rio de Janeiro's favelas, or poor urban neighborhoods, much has been written about the violent regimes that govern these spaces. This article argues that a nonviolent political regime run by activist residents also plays a critical role in favela governance by expanding the provision of services, promoting social development, fighting for their citizenship rights, and inserting favelas into poli…
Domestic Violence/Violence Against Women
Violence against women is present across cultures, historical periods, and political systems; it occurs in contexts of the politicization of ethnicity, wars, and criminal activity, as well as in the private sphere of the home and family. Feminist social theory locates it in (gendered) power asymmetries that manifest themselves at both micro‐ and macro‐ levels. Many scholars regard the varied manifestations of violence against women as examples of…
The politics of contested urban space
In June 2013, Brazil witnessed one of its largest protest movements in history when more than 1 million Brazilians marched on city streets to demand improvements to urban life. As the epicenters of protests, cities have become an important location for examining the demands, politics, and social change strategies of contemporary citizenship. In this article, we analyze the evolution of Brazil’s protest movement. Based on participant observation, …
Masculinity and Sexual Violence
Despite strong evidence that men perpetrate most acts of sexual violence, little is known about the factors that lead some men to commit such harmful acts. A growing body of feminist scholarship has begun to explore this question, although the disciplinary and geographic breadth of these studies has prevented the development of a cohesive research agenda. This literature review contributes to this task by reviewing the major theoretical contribut…
