Comparative music education in partnership: Examining policy and provision of music in initial teacher education in Ireland and Northern Ireland
This article investigates policy and provision of music in initial teacher education (ITE) in Ireland and Northern Ireland through a novel approach to comparative music education in ITE. Employing literature reviews and a survey of music ITE policy and provision in the two jurisdictions, it draws on a range of primary and secondary sources and presents a summary of comparative findings from the MITE project, carried out between 2017-2018. Key sim…
Reconfiguring music education for future-making: How
Global and societal changes present profound challenges and complexities for the future of music education practice and research. In these times of rapid change, four members of the MER editorial board reflect on the need to challenge normalising discourses of music education and encourage new understandings and/or territories within the field. In this viewpoint paper, we proffer four provocations on the themes of music(s) and social justice, cli…
Apsa Congressional Fellows Office Assignments
Founded in 1953, the APSA Congressional Fellowship Program is the nation's oldest and most prestigious congressional fellowship. More than 50 years later, the program remains devoted to its original objective of expanding knowledge and awareness of Congress. For nine months, select political scientists, journalists, doctors, federal executives, and international scholars gain “hands on” understanding of the legislative process by serving on congr…
Enterprising Women: A Comparison of Women's and Men's Small Business Networks
This study demonstrates the importance of social context to the study of networks vital to business success. Results from analyses of the personal and business characteristics associated with different types of networks, a topic that has been neglected in past research, show the importance of structural perspectives emphasizing that women and men in the same situations have similar networks. Yet there are some network differences even among these…
Battling the Plantation Mentality: Memphis and the Black Freedom Struggle
In Battling the Plantation Mentality, Laurie Green takes a fresh look at the Memphis freedom struggle through the prism of race, class, and gender. Her primary interest is working-class blacks and ...
From Vietnam to Iraq: American Elites' Views on the Use of Military Force
In this paper we present trends in US elites' opinions on the use of military force abroad in the period from the end of US military involvement in Vietnam in 1975 to 2004 during the 'war on terror.' With data from quadrennial surveys of US elites' foreign policy attitudes sponsored by the Chicago Council on Foreign Relations since 1975, we ask whether elites have become more militaristic or whether such views have been a long term characteristic…
Women and Men in Political and Business Elites: A Comparative Study in the Industrialized World
This analysis examines the demographic characteristics, family circumstances and career paths of a group of elite women. Drawing on a sample of 27 countries, a picture is constructed that informs readers of career paths, values, social networks and gender battles for women elites
Mommies and Daddies on the Fast Track in Other Wealthy Nations
Social and cultural contexts, as well as public policies, shape the experiences of women and men in demanding occupations. This article compares work-family themes in the conference papers to research outside of the United States, especially to a mid-1990s survey of twelve hundred women and men holding the highest positions in elected politics and business in twenty-seven capitalist democracies, the Comparative Leadership Study. Analyses show tha…
Social Capital: Mentors and Contacts
Many social and personal factors contribute to the achievement of an elite position. Informal factors are examined in this chapter, specifically mentors and personal contacts. For the women in top positions and men in comparable posts in the sample, it is asked whether social capital, in the form of personal contacts with powerful actors, has been equally important to women and men in elite positions. Gender differences and similarities in the pr…

Elite Interlocks in Three U.S. Sectors: Nonprofit, Corporate, and Government
This study traces elite interlocks between the economic, political, and civil sectors of the United States in the late 1990s. We assess integration and fragmentation through analyzing patterns of overlap and interaction among influential organizations and leaders in these sectors. Network analyses are conducted with UCINET 5 on the Elite Directors Database, a new data set composed of the directors/trustees for the largest organizations in the bus…

Gendering Elites: Economic and Political Leadership in 27 Industrialized Societies
Gender and Networks in a Local Voluntary-Sector Elite
Focusing on gender inequality in a local community elite, we investigate the role of gender in access to and participation in networks of nonprofit trustees in Louisville, Kentucky. We examine two types of network relations: participation in the network of overlapping board memberships (the “structural network”) and interpersonal ties of collegiality and friendship (the “social network”). Asking whether the gender hierarchy found in most private …

Elite integration in stable democracies: A Reconsideration
Efforts to reconceptualize elite structure and functioning in stable democracies, together with data from surveys of elite interaction networks in three democratic societies, suggest that the conventional power elite, ruling class and pluralist perspectives are only partly accurate and that fusing them in a more realistic model makes much sense. Using data from comparable surveys of national elites in the US, Australia and West Germany, we argue …
Structural Determinants of Men's and Women's Personal Networks
Men's and women's personal networks often differ in composition, with women's more focused on family and men's on nonkin, especially coworkers. Using data from the 1985 General Social Survey, I find that these gender differences arise in part from dissimilar social structural locations of men and women, which lead to distinct opportunities for and constraints on the formation of close personal ties. Most gender differences in network composition …

The Structure of a National Elite Network
Elite Integration in the United States and Australia
Taking its point of departure in the elitist paradigm and the much-discussed relationship between elite integration and stable democratic political systems, this article offers a typology of fragmented and integrated national elites and investigates the structure of the "consensually integrated" elite type. It is hypothesized that "consensually integrated" elites have largely similar structures consisting of personal interaction networks which ar…

Elite Social Circles
We describe a method for locating the denser, or more cohesive, parts of networks. The method starts from the identification of cliques, or maximal complete subgraphs. Since there are numerous such subgraphs in most networks, they are then aggregated when they overlap sufficiently. The resulting aggregated subgraphs are frequently large, not necessarily disjoint, and comparatively denser regions of the full network; frequently, they have the char…
