The ‘Nation‐State Law’ and non‐Jews belonging in Israel
This paper probes the relationship between nationalism and belonging. In the context of the enactment of the ‘Nation‐State Law’ in Israel, it addresses a twofold question: how do members of the Druze community articulate the minority group's sense of belonging to the national community, and what do their constructions of belonging suggest about how Druze might shape and secure their belonging in the Jewish nationalist project? Our analytical appr…

Gender and Sexual Practice in Structural Context
In this study, we elaborate connections among gender, structure, and practice to suggest how social structural relations shape social sexual practice and, in the process, reshape gender relations. Using survey data from a study of a community mobilization intervention, we investigate the connection between institutional arrangements and condom use practice in sexual encounters with commercial clients and intimate partners among 410 women engaged …

Introduction
The analysis in this special issue on the sociology of development continues the ongoing process of problematizing the development enterprise. While the notion of modernization seems out of fashion, and few scholars would juxtapose the so‐called “progress and superiority” of modernization with the supposed “stagnation and inferiority” of tradition, the concept of development retains considerable ideological content. Evaluating development theorie…

Free markets and state control
In this article, a sociologist and a criminologist argue that recent analysis from feminist men's studies points to ways to challenge the masculine institutions involved in global economic restructuring and the global war on terrorism. The expansion of state control - in the name of security and fighting terrorism - represents a new aspect of globalisation, which, in the US, carries significant consequences in terms of less freedom, more incarcer…
International data on women and gender
The Organization of Labor Resources in Juárez Families
In 1995, Mexico again slid into economic and social crisis without full recovery from the crisis of 1982. When the Mexican peso plunged in value right before Christmas 1994, many segments of the society that were affected had not regained the purchasing power of 1980. The broad outline of the Mexican government's program for responding to the most recent crisis is parallel to the prescriptions offered in the 1980s; indeed, the response represents…

Moving From 'The Status of Women' to 'Gender Inequality
This paper extends the conceptualisation and refines the operationalisation of gender inequality. The aim is to bridge theory - on gender relations - and measurement - of the reality of gender for women and men - by means of a set of social indicators of gender inequality. We first elaborate the concept of gender inequality and differentiate it from 'women's status'. Gender inequality is defined as the departure from parity in the representation …
Gender Inequality and Industrial Development
Earlier research suggests that, based on generation and gender, significant conflicts of materials interests exist in households and that domestic work, informal sector work, wage work, and female subordination intersect at the household level. In light of such analysis, this study presents propositions about (1) how households in industrializing areas allocate the labor of their female members (2) and the consequences of the nature of the work w…
Chicana College Students on the Texas-Mexico Border
In interviews with a probability sample of 218 Mexican-American women university students, the authors found that the number of hours Chicanas work weekly is vastly more important than either their connection to the ethnic community or their challenge to gender relations in terms of the time it takes them to earn a baccalaureate degree. The findings-both descriptive and multivariate-suggest that institutional responsiveness to their combined stud…

Neighborhood Impoverishment and Child Maltreatment
This study examines the neighborhood context of child maltreatment. The neighborhood level of analysis reveals something of the resources upon which caregivers can draw in carrying out their roles. After a discussion of the connection between structural inequality (in terms of both class and gender) and child abuse, we employ a model of neighborhood 'impoverishment,' devised from the ecological perspective, to predict rates of maltreatment in nei…
