Why Now? Why Education
The case for helping boys and men in education
When feminist scholars cite a “gendered injustice,” it was once a safe bet that they would be referring to inequities disfavoring girls or women. No longer. The feminist philosopher Cordelia Fine, for example, now uses the term to describe the wide gaps in U.S. education where, as a group, boys and men are lagging behind their female peers (Fine, 2023). There are wide gender gaps favoring girls and women at every stage in the education system. Bu…
Response to Diane W. Schanzenbach
The gender gap in educational outcomes is slowly but surely moving up the academic and policymaking agenda. It is no small thing for a scholar of Diane Schanzenbach's standing to declare so clearly that “we certainly need to pay attention to improving boys' achievement levels.” This is a call that I hope more researchers, policymakers, political figures, and nonprofit organizations will heed. The need for more policies aimed specifically at impro…
Trends in the diversity of mortality causes and age-standardised mortality rates among subpopulations within Scotland, 2001–2019
Previous research has demonstrated increasing diversity in causes of mortality among high-income nations in recent decades, associated with improvements in health and increasing life expectancies. Health outcomes are known to vary widely between communities within these countries and inequalities between sexes and other subpopulations are key in understanding the health of populations. Despite this, little is known about variation in the diversit…

Dream Hoarders: How the American Upper Middle Class Is Leaving Everyone Else in the Dust, Why That Is a Problem, and What to Do About It
Dream Hoarderssparked a national conversation on the dangerous separation between the upper middle class and everyone else. Now in paperback and newly updated for the age of Trump, Brookings Institution senior fellow Richard Reeves is continuing to challenge the class system in America. In America, everyone knows that the top 1 percent are the villains. The rest of us, the 99 percent?we are the good guys. Not so, argues Reeves. The real class div…

The Measure of a Nation
We need more-and better-data on social mobility in the United States. Normative questions must be answered first. We have to know why we care about a particular pattern of mobility to know how to set about measuring it. The distinction between relative and absolute mobility is a case in point. Do we care most about whether people are better off than their parents, or about how much movement there is up and down the income ladder? Technical diffic…

President Kennedy is a dramatic day-by-day, often minute-by-minute, Oval Office narrative of what it was, and is, like to be President. This is the view f…
