Aliens and Strangers: Exploring the “Other” in a Team-Taught Science Fiction Course
While prior research has illustrated the strengths of collaborative teaching between sociology and English, less has examined the potential of cross-listed courses, instead largely focusing on how to bring writing instruction into the sociology classroom. Similarly, other work has explored the possible uses of literary examples within sociology lessons. We argue that a fully collaborative teaching model capitalizing on strengths from both sociolo…
An Intersectional Approach to the Glass Ceiling: Gender, Race and Share of Middle and Senior Management in U.S. Workplaces
Playing the race card: White injury, White victimhood and the paradox of colour-blind ideology in anti-immigrant discourse
Analysing online threads, we show how nativist extremist forum participants use the term "race card" within their anti-illegal immigration rhetoric in three ways. First, they employ abstract liberalism to argue that immigrants use the race card to gain undeserved access to resources. Secondly, participants disassociate the issue of immigration as a racial issue. Both tactics are cloaked within a colour-blind framework. Third, they use a White inj…
Spatial Variation in U.S. Labor Markets and Workplace Gender Segregation: 1980–2005
Many studies of workplace inequality have examined why workplace gender segregation still exists and how gender segregation affects workplaces (Cohen, Huffman, and Knauer 2009 Work and Occupations 36(4):318; Huffman, Cohen, and Pearlman 2010 Administrative Science Quarterly 55(2):255). Yet, fewer studies have examined how space might affect gender segregation. In this paper, we investigate two types of space, normative space and industrial space,…
Gender composition and share of management: Tipping points in US workplaces, 1980–2005
This paper examines how concepts of gendered organizations, tokenism and the glass escalator affect women's share of management. Specifically, we examine how the gender composition of workplaces affects women's share of management in 195,534 workplaces using EEO-1 report data collected from the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission from 1980 until 2005. The EEO-1 data allow us to explore the effects of gender composition on women's share of …
It is just Sickening”: Emotions and discourse in an anti-immigrant discussion forum
Following 9/11, organizations advocating for stricter immigration policy grew across the United States. This study examines the Web site and online discussion forum of Americans for Legal Immigration Political Action Committee (ALIPAC), a group identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center as nativist extremist. While forum participants are geographically dispersed, social media provide them a space to interact with like-minded people. Results sh…
Framing same-sex marriage: Media constructions of California's Proposition 8
Legislation regarding the legalization of same-sex marriages has been advocated for and opposed across distinct states in the United States. Claims makers on either side of the issue have attempted to have their voices heard in local and national newspapers. Newspaper personnel determine how to frame the issue, deciding which meanings associated with same-sex marriage will be highlighted and which will go unrepresented. This paper analyzes the me…
Anyone Can Be an Illegal: Color-Blind Ideology and Maintaining Latino/Citizen Borders
Previous research has shown that nativist ideology racializes nonwhite immigrants, but little research has looked at how color-blind racist discourse shapes how people accomplish this while maintaining a race-neutral identity. This study examines how online discussion forum participants of an anti-immigrant organization in the United States use color-blind racist discourse. The qualitative analysis of 200 threads (2,168 posts) shows that forum pa…
Overworked or Underworked? Examining Hour Mismatches for Women and Men in the United States
In this article, we add to the literature on feeling over- or underworked (hour mismatch) by examining the influence of work and family relationships; social stratification (occupation, education, financial stability); household labor (hours of housework and childcare); and attitudes toward paid and unpaid labor. Our analysis of hour mismatches is informed by several theories, including Jacobs and Gerson's dual-earner couple hypothesis and notion…
