"The Politics of School Rezoning in the "Cradle of a Nation: Racial Segregation, Settler Colonialism, and Private Property in Williamsburg, Virginia
Rezoning public school attendance boundaries offers important possibilities for promoting school integration; however, it tends to generate contentious debates, often with white, middle-class parents furiously opposing school reassignments. In this paper, we ask: what logics and discourses do race and class-privileged parents draw on to justify educational inequities, and how are such discourses employed? To explore these questions we analyze a h…
Inter-State Competition and Transnational Capitalists across the North-South Divide: Different Strategies, New Configurations of Power
Existing research emphasizes the rise of new coalitions of states from the global South, such as the BRICS, on one hand, and the rise of a transnational capitalist class on the other.

Research neglects explicitly comparative inquiries: do transnational capitalists in the global North and the global South interact with inte…

Private Governance, Hegemonic Struggles, and Institutional Outcomes in the Transnational Cotton Commodity Chain
Transnational firms have rolled out new forms of private governance at the same time as the rise of new economic powerhouses like China has fomented growing inter-state tensions.

I explore these questions by tracing the construction and dissolution of sectoral h…

Mainstream explanations of recent changes in the apparel industry suggest that rural communities will lose tedious or physically demanding, low-skilled apparel manufacturing jobs but will gain more information-intensive and desirable "apparel service" employment. Through case studies of apparel firms located in two Wisconsin…
