U.S. and Canadian Higher Education Protests and University and Police Responses, 2012 to 2018
The authors describe protest patterns at U.S. and Canadian universities in the 2010s. The research draws on a new dataset, the Higher Ed Protest Event Dataset, which combines machine learning and sociological hand coding of 16,069 campus newspaper articles. The sample consists of 5,553 higher ed protests involving 584 universities and colleges between 2012 and 2018. The dataset also includes university and police responses to a subset of protests…
When Affirmative Action Disappears: Unexpected Patterns in Student Enrollments at Selective U.S. Institutions, 1990–2016
Discussions of U.S. affirmative action policy assume that considering race in undergraduate admissions increases Black and Latinx student enrollments. We show that this assumption that affirmative action is linked to Black and Latinx student enrollments holds true for higher-status colleges and universities, but not institutions across the field of higher education. We use fixed effects modeling to analyze the association between a stated affirma…
Ivory Tower Fantasies about Affirmative Action
Rights on Trial: How Workplace Discrimination Law Perpetuates Inequality
The Partial Deinstitutionalization of Affirmative Action in U.S. Higher Education, 1988 to 2014
Since the 1990s, affirmative action opponents have targeted colleges' and universities' race-conscious admissions policies and secured bans on the practice in eight states. Although scholarly and media attention has focused on these dynamics at a handful of elite institutions, little is known about race-conscious admissions across the broader field of higher education. We provide a descriptive, quantitative account of how different types of colle…
Race, Class, and Affirmative Action
Dequantifying diversity: Affirmative action and admissions at the University of Michigan
The Enigma of Diversity: The Language of Race and the Limits of Racial Justice
Making a Civil Rights Claim for Affirmative Action: Bamn’s Legal Mobilization and the Legacy of Race-Conscious Policies
The politics of affirmative action are currently structured as a litigious conflict among elites taking polarized stances. Opponents call for colorblindness, and defenders champion diversity. How can marginalized activists subvert the dominant terms of legal debate? To what extent can they establish their legitimacy? This paper advances legal mobilization theory by analytically foregrounding the field of contention and the relational production o…
Breaking Glass Ceilings, Ignoring Dirty Floors: The Culture and Class Bias of Diversity Management
Research on workplace inequality focuses largely on gender and racial disparities at work and contributing factors, while those who study diversity interventions tend to ask how these might be remedied. This article takes a different tack, asking the following: What ideals and cultural assumptions about social progress undergird workplace diversity programs, and with what consequences? Drawing from neoinstitutionalism and workplace ethnography, I…
Situated Justice: A Contextual Analysis of Fairness and Inequality in Employment Discrimination Litigation
A substantial body of sociolegal scholarship suggests that the legitimacy of the law crucially depends on the public's perception that legal processes are fair. The bulk of this research relies on an underdeveloped account of the material and institutional contexts of litigants' perceptions of fairness. We introduce an analysis of situated justice to capture a contextualized conception of how litigants narrate fairness in their actual legal encou…
Why Diversity Became Orthodox in Higher Education, and How it Changed the Meaning of Race on Campus
Using qualitative data about University of Michigan between 1965 and 2005, this article shows how administrators' diversity discourse and programs have defined race as a cultural identity, expressed through interaction, which provides instrumental benefits. It also explains three major reasons why, starting in the mid-1980s, university administrators adopted this racial orthodoxy of 'diversity': to signal compliance with-and also to redefine-law …
Divergent Paths: Conflicting Conceptions of Employment Discrimination in Law and the Social Sciences
Legal conceptions of employment discrimination have become increasingly narrow over the past two decades as the law has adopted a “perpetrator” model of discrimination that emphasizes purposeful intent. This tendency runs counter to social scientific research that documents the pervasiveness of unintentional bias and the persistence of organizational processes that generate workplace discrimination. This narrow legal conception, coupled with a sy…
Rights of Inclusion: Integrating Identity at the Bottom of the Dispute Pyramid
Divided over Diversity: Political Discourse in a Chicago Neighborhood
In a Chicago neighborhood made up of different racial and economic groups, nearly everyone claims to value diversity. Yet, this powerful and plastic symbol can influence political activity in opposite directions. An ethnographic study of the neighborhood shows how three different groups—white real estate professionals and politicians, white progressive organizers, and black low‐income housing advocates—deploy diversity. It presents three key find…
