Does Court-Ordered Community Service Work?: Evidence from a Case Study
Based on interviews with thirty-one managers in community organizations and thirty-four court-ordered community service workers (CSWs) in Georgia, this Element asks whether community service programs are likely to achieve their stated goals of restitution, cost savings, and rehabilitation and what conditions support or undermine success. While some individuals perceive a benefit, these programs often shift costs to under-resourced nonprofits, imp…
Can I make the time or is it running out? That depends in part on what difficulty implies about me
1,676) on how much people endorse the time-as-limited and time-as-expandable aspects of the time-as-resource metaphor. Indeed, across experiments, people more strongly endorsed time-as-limited, less strongly endorsed time-as-expandable and saw these aspects of the time-as-resource metaphor as more negatively correlated if randomized to the difficulty-as-impossibility (vs. difficulty-as-importance) recall condition. Supporting our novel prediction…
Court-Ordered Community Service: The Experiences of Community Organizations and Community Service Workers
Community service is a common court-ordered sanction in many countries. Individuals sentenced to community service must work a specified number of uncompensated hours at an approved community agency, typically as a condition of probation. A core expectation of court-ordered community service is that the community agencies benefit from this labor. However, very little research examines the organizational and interpersonal dynamics involved when co…
Redirecting revenues from law enforcement fines, forfeitures, and related fees to fund local nonprofits: A policy design proposal
Monetary sanctions in law enforcement, including fines, forfeitures, and related fees, are susceptible to exploitation by agencies for self-serving profit motives. However, a key challenge in addressing this issue is disentangling the agencies’ profit-driven motives from their genuine commitment to upholding law and order. Against this backdrop, this study examines a novel policy design proposal: redirecting revenues from law enforcement to fund …
Voluntary Outsiders in Their Anthropocentric Nation: Korean Vegan Youth Navigating between National Ruins and Transnational Mobilities
This study asks why and how a segment of young people have led the emergence of veganism in contemporary South Korea since the mid-2010s, and what this appearance means—especially against the backdrop of the wide interpretation of Korean youth as disillusioned and depoliticized individuals who distrust the possibility of any positive social change. The article argues that the youth-driven Korean veganism has played a role in filling the void of t…
The Rural/Urban Volunteering Divide
Are rural residents more likely to volunteer than those living in urban places? Although early sociological theory posited that rural residents were more likely to experience social bonds connecting them to their community, increasing their odds of volunteer engagement, empirical support is limited. Drawing upon the full population of rural and urban respondents to the United States Census Bureau’s current population survey volunteering supplemen…
Recognition for resistance: Gifting, social media, and the politics of reciprocity in South Korean energy activism
This article argues for adopting the theoretical lens of gift exchange and reciprocity into the study of social movements and social media in an attempt to widen the horizon of the field of protest and media beyond its technological orientation. This lens invites us to see how protesters can build a movement strategically through the practice of gifting and the principle of reciprocity, and how such practices intersect with socially situated usag…
Resilient peripheralisation through authoritarian communication against energy democracy in South Korea
To understand anti-democratic barriers to accomplishing energy democracy, I examine how and why a centralised energy system can maintain itself based on an ethnographic analysis of the local protest of the Miryang community against the Korea Electric Power Corporation’s construction of a 765,000-volt transmission line. In doing so, I incorporate the element of authoritarian communication into the framework of peripheralization – a socio-political…
