The Use and Abuse of Social Science
Free universities and radical reading groups: Learning to care in the here and now
This article is an autoethnography of two free education projects, Brisbane Free University and Queering Health Hobart. We suggest that in theorizing our experiences of these sites through feminist theories of care, we see how counter-capitalist and anti-oppressive cultures might be fostered within and against neoliberal capitalism. In particular, we suggest that these spaces foster forms of relationality, locatedness and attentiveness which disr…

A qualitative meta-synthesis of the benefits of eco-labeling in developing countries
Eco-labeling (or environmental certification) is often promoted as a regulatory instrument capable of incentivizing sustainable resource use, even in the absence of stringent government environmental regulations. Despite slow uptake in developing countries and high producer costs, a growing body of case study evidence suggests that producers benefit in varied ways from certification. A qualitative meta-synthesis approach is applied to this body o…

Illusions of prosperity
Gender, Children, and Social Labor: Transcending the “Family Wage” Dilemma
The “family wage”—or the bending of market signals and the labor force to accommodate marriage, gender roles, and children—has bedeviled political economists and policymakers for two centuries. This article reviews the treatment accorded family bonds in a competitive economy and outlines the quest for a family wage by working class families. After analyzing the feminist critique of the concept, the article shows how the family wage actually held …
Divorce and illegitimacy
The family: Where do we go from here
The Swedish Experiment in Family Politics: The Myrdals and the Interwar Population Crisis
This devastating account of work of Gunnar and Alva Myrdal is a monumental case study in uses and abuses of social science. It portrays how these two young scholars used power of ideas to help engineer a new domestic order in Sweden. The book focuses on Myrdals' unique fusion of socialism and feminism with nationalism and pro-nationalism in their joint 1934 book, Crisis in Population Question turning issue of Sweden's declining birthrate into the…
