Mothers and Children: Feminist Analyses and Personal Narratives
This feminist exploration of mothers, mothering, and motherhood combines evaluations of empirical and theoretical work with personal narratives by mothers or caregivers. While the authors' analyses yield suggestions for new approaches to motherhood, the narratives vividly demonstrate the relevance of these issues to women's lives. The result is a nuanced picture of the complex realities mothers face, as well as their struggles, joys, and hopes fo…

Culture and Power: The Sociology of Pierre Bourdieu
Pierre Bourdieu is a prominent social theorist and researcher in contemporary sociology. In this critical examination of his oeuvre David Swartz focuses on a central theme in Bourdieu's work - the complex relationship between culture and power, and explains that sociology for Bourdieu is a mode of political intervention. Swartz clarifies Bourdieu's difficult concepts, noting where they have been misinterpreted by critics, and where they have fall…
Lesbian Lifestyles: Women's Work and the Politics of Sexuality
Clarence Thomas, Patriarchal Discourse and Public/Private Spheres
The transcripts from the reopened hearings on Clarence Thomas's nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court illustrate patriarchal discourse. This article shows how such discourse thematizes men's roles as protectors, providers, and power wielders while relying heavily on distinctions between the public and private spheres
How Culture Works
Blending Genders: Social Aspects of Cross-Dressing and Sex-Changing
First published in 1995, the book describes personal experiences of those who cross-dress and sex change, how they organise themselves socially - in both `outsider' and `respectable' communities. The contributors consider the dominant medical framework through which gender blending is so often seen and look at the treatment afforded gender blending in literature, the press and the recently emerged telephone sex lines. The book concludes with a di…
Backlash, the Matrix of Domination, and Log Cabin Republicans
This article focuses on Log Cabin Republicans, gay members of that political party who reject “queer” politics and “leftist” projects among lesbian and gay activists. We show that members” social class, race, age, and gender are as central to an understanding of Log Cabin politics as is their nonnormative sexuality. The case of the Log Cabin Republicans illustrates how the matrix of domination is reaffirmed in backlash rhetoric and related so-cio…
Autonomy and Credibility: Voice as Method
Although little noticed by practicing theorists, narrative voice influences theoretical work. This essay presents a demonstration of voice as method, concentrating on brief segments of works by Garfinkel and Goffman. We attend to two methodological themes: how theorists use voice to establish intellectual autonomy, and how the use of voice influences credibility with readers. Garfinkel maximizes his autonomy by using narrative techniques that iso…

Teaching, Theorizing, Storytelling: Postmodern Rhetoric and Modern Dreams
This paper responds to the papers published as a symposium on postmodernism in Sociological Theory (Fall 1991). It argues that postmodernism as a rhetoric and postmodernism as a methodology often diverge among theorists. Further, it contends that theorists' professional locations, including their relative disengagement from undergraduates, may help to account for their attraction to postmodern rhetoric and metatheoretical gesticulations

They All Were Passing: Agnes, Garfinkel, and Company
This article offers both a feminist and an ethnomethodological reanalysis of Harold Garfinkel's report on Agnes, the intersexed person he studied with several colleagues. Both reanalyses yield similar conclusions. Specifically, while it does illuminate the work of accomplishing gender, the report on Agnes simultaneously illustrates how gender operates as a powerful background expectancy among professional as well as 'lay' sociologists

Everyday Life as Text
During the past fifteen years or so, sociologists have tried in various ways to make sense of ethnomethodology. Some (Dreitzel, 1970:vii-viii; Johnson, 1981:293; Collins, 1975:30) compare it with symbolic interactionism, others (Leiter, 1980:185) with labeling theory. More commonly, sociologists look to phenomenology for access to ethnomethodology (Dallmayr and McCarthy, 1977:10; Heap and Roth,1978:288; Mayrl, 1977; Morris, 1977; O'Neill, 1972:21…

Instrumental and Infra-Resources: The Bases of Power
The definition of power, which is increasingly incorporated in sociological analyses, remains ambiguous. This paper attempts to elucidate the nature of power in two ways. First, the concept is explicated in terms of instrumental resources and infra-resources. The term "infra-resources" has been developed to incorporate perceptual and circumstantial aspects of power into theoretical analyses. Second, a strongly systematic orientation to power is d…

Goffman on Power, Hierarchy, and Status
Among the most commonly overlooked set of insights offered by Erving Goffman is his commentary, comprised of both explicit and implicit elements, on the interrelationship among power, hierarchy, and status in everyday life. In fact, Goffman has been subject to criticism for his apparent failure to treat these sorts of stratification-related phenomena. To date the most detailed critique of Goffman along these lines is Alvin Gouldner's analysis.1 K…
