Experiences of dehumanizing: Examining secondary victimization within the nurse-patient relationship among African American women survivors of sexual assault in the Upper Midwest
Connecting Health and Peacebuilding in Theory and Practice
Peace and health have long been connected through significant social structures such as violent conflict and social/economic inequalities and oppression. Peace and health have also been connected through research and action as war and interpersonal violence are recognized as threats to public health and individual welfare. In 1986, the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion laid out the dependence of health on the presence of “peace, shelter, educat…
Realizing peace: A constructive conflict approach

The Women's International League for Peace and Freedom and the Challenges of Intersectionality Praxis
Black feminist scholars argued decades ago for working for peace and justice from the intersections of people's multiple identities. A body of scholarship focused on intersectionality subsequently arose since doing so is thought to have broader appeal and be more efficacious. However, the degrees to which social movements actually use intersectional discourses is undetermined. Quantitative and qualitative data analyses from a longitudinal study (…

Environmental/Green Cultural Shifts: Dynamics of Social Change
The greening of society is a strong cultural wave as we enter the second decade of the century. This article considers what it means to be ‘green’, core issues that the environmental sustainability wave brings to society and the role of sociology its evolution in public culture. A key argument offered is that sociologists’ historic commitment to critical analysis and to social justice could be important in determining whether the green wave is si…
Pursuing Political Persuasion: War and Peace Frames in the United States after September 11th
Despite the prominence of framing analysis in social movement research, the ways that power-holders and challengers attempt to persuade the general public remain under-theorized. We develop a multidimensional typology of what content producers frequently anticipate will make their frames potent. Moreover, we argue that several contextual factors influence which of these dimensions are emphasized in frames. To assess these propositions, we conduct…
Ideological Consistency and Contextual Adaptation: U.S. Peace Movement Emotional Work Before and After 9/11
The authors examine how the U.S. peace movement responded to the Bush administration's attempts to generate and capitalize on a heightened sense of threat after the 9/11 attacks. Longitudinal analysis of statements by U.S. peace movement organizations issued before and after 9/11 indicates that the movement's discourse is both ideologically consistent and contextually adaptive. In each period, movement discourse highlighted the U.S. government as…
Contesting Patriotism: Culture, Power, and Strategy in the Peace Movement
During war, space for debate shrinks. Narrow ideas of patriotism and democracy marginalize and silence opposition to militarism abroad and repression at home. Although powerful, these ideas encounter widespread resistance. Analyzing the official statements of 15 organizations from 1990-2005, the authors show that the U.S. peace movement strongly contested taken-for-granted assumptions regarding nationalism, religion, security, and global justice.…
A Typology of Oppositional Knowledge: Democracy and the U.S. Peace Movement
Institutionally privileged political discourses not only legitimate the policy agendas of power-holders, but also de-legitimate dissent. Oppositional discourses are social movement responses to these cultural obstacles to mass mobilisation. Integrating discourse analysis and framing theory, we argue that the production of oppositional knowledge constitutes a long-term, counter-hegemonic project that connects macro-level discourses with meso and m…

Harnessing and Challenging Hegemony: The U.S. Peace Movement after 9/11
This article examines how U.S. peace movement organizations (PMOs) sought discursively to overcome cultural and political obstacles to mass mobilization after September 11, 2001. Quantitative and qualitative methods are blended to analyze the official statements of nine U.S. PMOs. Three factors influencing framing are considered: the cultural context, the political context, and oppositional identities. The events of 9/11 presented discursive and …
Contesting Patriotism
In the days following the tragic events of September 11, U.S. peace movement organizations (PMOs) found themselves operating in a difficult political climate. For the government, the mainstream media and the general public, “citizen,” “patriot” and “retaliation” merged into a single “American” identity so that many felt that the nation and its way of life were at risk and that war was an appropriate response to the “new threat.” Since then the mi…
Looking for a way out: Nonviolence and a culture of peace
Silent or Silenced
As we near the end of the 20th century, U.S. politicians and the Pentagon tell us that war is becoming a phenomenon of the past. Yet how many people in the world can honestly claim that their lives are less violent and that justice prevails? As international war grows less popular as a means of confronting differences, what agenda does it provide for peace studies? We can consider one approach, built on feminist principles, for designing a pro‐ac…
Constructing identity and oppositional knowledge: The framing practices of peace movement organizations during the Persian gulf war
Social movement organizations (SMOs) engage in the formation of public policy and social beliefs by framing issues and events for the public. These framing activities may offer an alternative source of knowledge and challenge status quo definitions of important social issues. Analyzing the statements and press releases of four peace movement organizations during the seven months of military escalation and war in the Persian Gulf in 1990 and 1991,…
