Hate Crime in the News: The Media’s Role in Agenda Setting
Examining the extant literature on hate crimes shows that there has been an evolutionary process of Hate Crime legislation (HC). Similar to other social movements such as civil rights, the hate crime movement also had various waves which eventually lead to the passage of legislation. By and large, however, HC research has focused on victims and offenders of hate crimes as well as motivations of bias. Moreover, less research has been done on the m…
Small Houses, Big Community: Tiny Housers' Desire for More Cohesive and Collaborative Communities
Past research on the tiny house movement has primarily focused on understanding the individual motivations behind adopting the tiny house lifestyle. While some studies have suggested that tiny housers do entertain an interest in community, no systematic research exists that examines the actual complexities of this phenomenon. To make first inroads into this body of literature, twenty-four community-oriented tiny housers were interviewed about the…

Participants in a small rural southeastern Adul…

We demonstrate the analytical utility of social movement theory for understanding the framing efforts of the anti-biotechnology movement. We content-analyzed electronic and printed documents from the anti-biotech watchdog group, the Council of Responsible Genetics to identify the movement's diagnostic and prognostic framing efforts. Our findings suggest that while the organization blends frame extension and frame translation strategies it aims fo…
