Setting Up Targeted Research Interviews
This article analyzes key strategic considerations for setting up targeted research interviews, including human subjects and Institutional Review Board requirements, approaching respondents, the medium of contact, using technology, cultural conceptions of time and commitment, using networks, wading through bureaucracies, and watching for warning signs. By making these considerations explicit and conscious, we can better specify how to gain interv…
Thailand’s Sufficiency Economy
The contemporary world is witnessing the growing re-assertion of public religion, including attempts to reorient economic organization and action according to religious teachings. One such attempt is the Thai concept of “sufficiency economy,” an economic model based on the collected sayings and development projects of Thailand’s king. The author examines the sufficiency economy model from three perspectives. First, he analyzes the origins and pri…
Progressive Welfare Reform? Ending General Assistance Cash Grants for Homeless People in San Francisco
This article examines Care-Not-Cash, a welfare reform measure that replaced cash General Assistance payments for homeless people in San Francisco with in-kind social services.

Drawing on primary and secondary documents, as well as extensive interviews, this article examines th…

Literature examining political framing generally focuses on the way that shared framing leads to cohesive actions and policy outcomes. Using a case study of San Francisco's homeless policy field, this article shows that shared framings among the majority of actors in the policy field did not lead to cooperative alliance among those actors nor to coherent policy based on their shared framing. To understand why shared framing failed, I examine the …
Happiness and Global Justice
This article examines two global responses to the failures of neoliberalism. The first, the World Social Forum, is a process born out of the “global justice movement.” The other, the Gross National Happiness movement, is endogenous to Asia, but is beginning to influence intellectuals, NGOs, and policymakers worldwide. These movements attempt to reformulate neoliberalism and the trajectory of modern capitalist development as a whole. Although they…
Power Mapping
Principles for Organic Public Sociology
Interest in in the United States is a positive sign for researchers who seek to span the borders between academia and social change. However, it is important not to assume that just because sociological research is publicly oriented it will automatically advance human rights, justice, and ecological sustainability. Sociologists must critically consider principles for conducting public sociology if their work is to have a libratory outcome. This i…
