Postmodern Thought in Symbolic Interaction
Perspectives in sociology are currently being reassessed in light of postmodernism, which has been associated with the abandonment of faith in the social self and scientific inquiry.

However, this article identifies some "late-modern" inter…

Paternalism and the female status offender
Using an interactionist conception of delinquency construction, this article empirically examines the commonly assumed, male dominance explanation of the existence of paternalistic punity meted out to female status offenders by juvenile justice officials.

Sex and Mobility in the Dual Economy
Recent work using a dual-economy approach to labor markets has documented heterogeneities in descriptive profiles of workers and returns to human capital by core-periphery sector of the economy. However, an important need that has gone relatively uninformed is an understanding of movement across sectors of the economy as a dimension of individual careers. This study explores how sex is related to core-periphery placement and mobility from labor f…
