Civic and Uncivic Values in Macedonia
Microfoundations of Civil Conflict Reconciliation
Comparative work on reconstruction and peace building in war-torn countries is dominated by a macro-oriented approach, focusing on structural political reforms, legal issues, disarmament, demobilization and reintegration of (rebel) soldiers, and repatriation of the displaced. This article offers a different perspective, examining micro-level determinants of reconciliation. Earlier research indicates that political attitudes in post–ethnic conflic…

Disaggregating Public Opinion on the Ethnic Conflict in Macedonia
This article presents a multilevel analysis of the variation in Macedonian public opinion on two key issues: (1) perceptions of the causes of the conflict during 2001; and (2) support for the rapid implementation of the Ohrid agreement, which was a vital part of the end of hostilities. This analysis disaggregates the differences among Macedonians on these issues on the basis of a three-level model where the municipalities constitute the highest l…
Cross-National Differences in the Western Balkans in Three Dimensions of Attitudes
This article presents basic analyses of overall cross-national and cross-ethnic group differences within this region regarding three of the project's topics of interest: ethnic exclusionism, gender role conservatism, and moral conservatism regarding sexual mores. Ethnic groups that represent at least approximately 10 percent of the population in each country are contrasted. These analyses demonstrate the relative importance of both general social…
Guest Editor's Introduction
This issue of the International Journal of Sociology presents some of the first studies based on the South-East European Social Survey Project—a social survey data resource for the sociology and social history of the group of societies included in what is now commonly referred to as the Western Balkans during late 2003 and early 2004. This introduction is intended to give an overview of the project that produced these data, concentrating on the d…
Attitudes Toward Egalitarianism in the Former Yugoslavia
(1995). 7 Attitudes Toward Egalitarianism in the Former Yugoslavia. International Journal of Sociology: Vol. 25, Class Divisions in East-Central Europe Studies of the Consequences of the Socialist “Experiments” of 1949–1988, pp. 103-114
Analyses of Social Distances Among Classes
This paper presents detailed analyses of eight dimensions of objective distances among social classes in Hungary and Poland based on large-scale social surveys carried out during the 1980s. The data for both countries could be fitted well with a modified log-multiplicative model that included a single set of relative class distances and class-specific tendencies for homophily across all dimensions. Social distances were greatest with regard to th…
An Introduction to Data Resources and Methodological Issues in Studying Class Divisions in East-Central Europe

Attitudes Toward Inequality
National survey data from Hungary and eight capitalist countries in 1987 demonstrate that at that time Hungarian citizens were more egalitarian in their attitudes than citizens in capitalist countries. Within Hungary, the most significant class differences in such attitudes were between higher nonmanual employees and the remainder of the population. Temporal comparisons show no changes in such attitudes in Hungary between 1987 and 1992. Cross-nat…

Residential Segregation by Occupation and Race in Ten Urbanized Areas, 1950-1970
Earlier studies by Duncan and Duncan (1955), Wilkins (1956), and Uyeki (1964) examined occupational residential segregation in a total of ten U.S. urbanized areas in 1950. The present study is a partial replication of these previous investigations, directed at measuring the changes in residential segregation in these same urbanized areas during the 1950s and 1960s. Changes in the relationship between racial segregation and occupational residentia…
Inequality in the Types of Sentences Received by Native Americans and Whites
A comparison of the distribution of the types of sentences imposed on native American offenders and Write offenders by the district courts of a western state reveals that the native American offenders were more likely to receive sentences involving incarceration in the state prison and were less likely to receive sentences which would have allowed them partially to escape stigmatization as a “convicted felon.” The introduction of a number of test…
