“…Grey and Cold and Full of Long Shadows”: City, neoliberalism and alienation in the 1970–80s American horror literature
This paper investigates American urban horror novels from the 1970s to 80s with a specific focus on the theme of alienation. While analysing the specific theme, the paper tracks the nuanced manifestations of neoliberalism-induced greed and exploitation and brings forward a portrait of the evolving urban landscape. Based on the treatment of urban themes in the selected texts, we have divided the paper into two sections: the redemptive arc of the 7…
Becoming Job-Ready? Narratives of Local Welfare-to-Work Programs and Client Experiences Across Differing Economic Contexts in California
Previous research on welfare-to-work exits has focused on individual client characteristics rather than local economic contexts. Drawing on a qualitative comparative case study design, this study enhances our understanding on how welfare-to-work organizational narratives and client experiences of becoming job-ready are shaped across two different economic contexts. In the disadvantaged economic context, a punitive welfare-to-work narrative is ope…
Role of community-based organizations in countering carceral logics: Comparing two caring profession organizations in Chicago
The work of community-based organizations (CBOs), organizations that represent a particular community, can be an impetus for social change and advocacy. By drawing on the institutional entrepreneurship perspective, this study seeks to understand how CBOs attempt to challenge dominant carceral logics (referred to as a punishment-oriented mind-set) in operation across two fields: (1) the public-school system and (2) human service providers that wor…

Equity versus equality: Discourses and practices within decentralized welfare‐to‐work programs in California
The U.S. welfare reform of 1996 brought about highly decentralized Welfare‐to‐Work (WTW) programs, granting discretion to states and local governments to implement policies. Previous research has emphasized racial disparities in WTW sanction rates, by focusing on state/county characteristics or frontline‐workers' biases. There is a dearth of research focusing on different understandings of equity or equality and corresponding practices embedded w…
Gender Differences in Patterns of School Victimization and Problem Behaviors During Middle School and Their Relation to High School Graduation
Victimization and problem behaviors during middle school detrimentally influence student learning. However, less is known about how they may cooccur and collectively affect high school graduation and whether the interrelationships vary by gender. Using data from a nationally representative cohort of seventh-grade students from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (1997; N = 1,009), latent class analyses identified three groups among boys and…
