Cycles of Conflict
In a new theory of conflict escalation, Randall Collins engages critical issues of violent conflict and presents a compellingly plausible theoretical description based on his extensive empirical research. He also sets a new challenge for sociology: explaining the time dynamics of social interaction. However, despite heavy reliance on the quantitative concept of positive feedback loops in his theory, Collins presents no mathematical specification …

Perceptual Control and Social Power
This article explores a new psychological perspective on human behavior, a cybernetic approach called 'perceptual control theory' (PCT). After detailing the PCT model, I demonstrate one application of PCT to sociological theory by applying this perspective to questions of power and interpersonal control. I argue that social power should be distinguished from interpersonal use of force, coercion, incentives, or influence. Rather, power derives fro…
Earning the model-minority image
Using the 1980 US Population Census data, this article documents the diverse strategies of economic adaptation adopted by a group of working-age immigrant women: Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, Korean, Indian and Vietnamese. A comparable sample of non-Hispanic white women serves as the reference group. Striking heterogeneity in the individual and collective resources of these groups, together with differences in labour market opportunities and histo…
The Perceived Seriousness of Racial Harassment
Using data from a 1989 factorial survey of 194 white students at a small liberal arts college, this paper demonstrates that observers' perception of the seriousness of verbal racial harassment depends both on the harassing behavior itself and on the account offered by the harasser for the behavior. Apologies and some excuses reduce perceived seriousness, while justifications and other excuses increase it, though only apologies have statistically …

The Aged Subculture Hypothesis
Arnold Rose predicted that concentrated interaction among older people would lead to participation in an aged subculture, the development of aging group consciousness and enhanced self-conception. Previous research has failed to focus directly on these issues and has been plagued by problems related to the self-selection and nonrepresentativeness of retirement community residents. Samples from two elderly central city HUD projects, three service-…
