The Sage Handbook of New Urban Studies
Neighbourhoods can be seen as units that have a function in certain phases of the lives of people. The ideal seems to be that they more or less ‘match’ the household type. Because of frequent changes in the household and also because of changes or inertia in several neighbourhoods mismatches may develop and therefore, when able, households will frequently try to ‘rematch’ their relationship with the neighbourhood. If we assume that the housing ma…

Environmental Sociology
The Integrated Circus
When Pax Americana began to disintegrate in the late 1960s, economic leaders in corporate America joined with their counterparts in Western Europe and Japan to develop a self-interested strategy for dealing with the political and social impacts of a changing global economy. As Marchak shows, the political agenda of the emerging New Right the dismantling of the welfare state was supported by corporate-funded think-tanks which influenced public pol…
Social Movement Theory and the Sociology of Religion
Despite a similar genesis in the classic nineteenth century theories of social change, scholarly analyses of religious and social movements have frequently addressed different problems and formulated separate paradigms. This divergence is discussed with reference to historical, ideological, and conceptual factors. Current religions and social movements, it is proposed, increasingly have much in common both structurally and ideologically. Three pr…

Working
The Armalite and the Ballot Box
For revolutionary movements, the twin tasks of external legitimation and grass roots mobilization often conflict with the maintenance of an exclusive organization with tight discipline, restricted membership, and doctrinal purity. With its “armalite-ballot box” strategy, the contemporary Provisional Irish Republican Army is attempting to circumvent these conflicts and reconcile political action with the armed struggle for national liberation. In …
Alain Touraine, Manuel Castells and Social Movement Theory
The "action theory" of Alain Touraine and Manuel Castells' theory of urban movements together constitute a social movement paradigm which differs significantly from both the traditional collective behavior explanation and the newer resource mobilization model. In this paper, the Touraine-Castells perspective is contrasted to the existing approaches with reiation to social movement causes, characteristics, and outcomes. It is argued that the work …
Unfriendly Skies
Using Stern's “network process” approach to interorganizational relations, the decline of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) from cartel to trade association is analyzed. IATA's loss of power and the erosion of stability in the international civil aviation network are traced to the emergence of a strong “proactive” regulatory style within the U.S. Civil Aeronautics Board, to increased competition for domain in the area of price se…

The Newspaper Ombudsman and Consumer Complaints
This paper reports the results of a survey of 282 clients of Sound Off, a Canadian newspaper ombudsman. The data suggest that the newspaper ombudsman works best as a communication "facilitator" but is less effective as a dispute "mediator." Furthermore, this service was found to be of least benefit to the socially advantaged who appear to use it to pursue more difficult problems. Nevertheless, 73 percent of the respondents indicated that they wou…
