Insiders and Outsiders
Although overtly concerned with overseas cultural groups, this paper considers social systems in terms of ethnic boundaries, structures, variables and policies. Systems of ethnic status structuralization are outlined; a classification of historic ethnic status systems is proposed; correlates of ethnic identity are formulated; types of boundary patterns are associated with types of ethnic orientation; and the pressures toward ethnic solidarity are…
The Rhetoric of Institutional Theory
INSTITUTIONS ARE a collective device by which we gather up the many loaves and fishes of the facts of social living into the miracle basket of conceptualization. More than that, institution is a word with strongly externalistic connotations which belie the largely internalistic character of the phenomenon. The concept, institutional behavior, refers to shared and public aspects of an incredibly diversified subjectivity; it is, at bottom and throu…

Sequence in Revolution
EVOLUTIONARY action, like many other types of social change, may be said to represent a social movement. As such, it has some pattern of change. Patterns are time and space marks; societal patterns are observations of similarities or continuities in structures and processes of social being and becoming in time and place.1 The basic assumption of the sequential pattern idea is that the data of social change are characterized both by repetition and…

The Cultural Organization of Action
Life, said William James, is a series of flights and perchings. Action is the process of life, and when its natural tempo or freedom is blocked or thwarted, the costs are those of life. Action is the goal-seeking behavior of the organism. All organisms have “goals”; without them they perish. Goals function as satisfiers of needs; without such satisfaction there is no life. Goal-directed action makes claims upon the organism's environments, and th…

The Scientific Use of Historical Data
The cogency of a scientific study utilizing historical data tends to be, unfortunately, very largely a matter of the methodological presuppositions of the reader. Indeed, the barriers to a more general and thorough scientific use of history are, for the most part, methodological. There are two such barriers: (1) the uncertainty as to the validity of an intensive scientific investigation of historical problems, and (2) the lack of a clear delineat…
