  • An Exploratory Study of State-Level Policies to Address Domestic Violence-Related Needs of Asian Indian Marriage Migrants

    Sonia Kapur, Anna Zajicek•ARTICLE•Women & Politics•2024•Citada por: 1•Referências: 56

    Domestic violence experiences of Asian Indian marriage migrants are unique due to an interplay of distinct aspects of their life contexts in the United States, such as immigration status, language barriers, and social support. What gaps exist in state-level policies to address the needs and concerns of abused Asian Indian marriage migrants? This research examines the question with interviews of 11 nonprofit sector professionals working closely wi…

  • Women Faculty in STEM Disciplines

    Open Access•Rodica Lisnic, Anna Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Humanity & Society•2022•Citada por: 1•Referências: 57

    Using data from a national survey of tenure-track faculty job satisfaction, the purpose of the study is to explore predictors of perceptions of tenure clarity for faculty in STEM and non-STEM fields. We build on extant studies and use the gendered organization framework as the conceptual lens to examine whether for four groups of faculty (women and men in STEM, and women and men in non-STEM) assessment of fairness in tenure decisions and evaluati…

  • Incorporating Intersectionality in Public Policy

    Open Access•Teresa Cristina Garcia, Anna Zajicek•ARTICLE•Humanity & Society•2021•Citada por: 9•Referências: 18

    Intersectionality is an ascending perspective in public policy research, gaining ever wider recognition in the discipline. The purpose of this study is to systematically review the literature to assess the current state of intersectional public policy research. This study describes the temporal and research site trends, discipline, type of research methodology, multiple categories of intersectionality in public policy studies, and policy area. Pa…

  • A changing landscape? An intersectional analysis of race and gender disparity in access to social capital

    Song Yang, Brandon A Jackson et al.•ARTICLE•Sociological Spectrum•2021•Citada por: 2•Referências: 45

    We apply intersectional frameworks and use a nationally representative dataset to investigate patterns of differential access to social capital among six racial and gender groups. We define social capital as resources controlled by individuals’ social contacts. Individuals can mobilize those contacts to facilitate their actions. We characterize one’s access to social capital with three indicators: the average occupational prestige score of indivi…

  • Gender and Race Differences in Faculty Assessment of Tenure Clarity

    Open Access•Rodica Lisnic, Anna Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Sociology of Race and Ethnicity•2019•Citada por: 7•Referências: 62

    The authors look at how the intersection of gender and race influences pretenure faculty members' perceptions of the clarity of tenure expectations. The authors also seek to identify potential predictors (assessment of mentoring, relationships with peers, feedback on progress toward tenure, and of fairness in tenure decision making and evaluation) of perceptions of tenure clarity for four intersectionally defined groups, including historically un…

  • Work-Family Balance and Tenure Reasonableness

    Rodica Lisnic, Anna Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Sociological Spectrum•2019•Citada por: 1•Referências: 56

    Perceptions of work–family balance and of the reasonableness of tenure expectations are key faculty retention factors. Using a national job satisfaction survey with 2438 tenure-track assistant professors, we explore whether faculty assessment of departmental and institutional support for family–work balance and their satisfaction with family-friendly policies influence their perceptions of the reasonableness of tenure expectations. We pay attenti…

  • Constructions of Battered Asian Indian Marriage Migrants

    Open Access•Sonia Kapur, Anna Zajicek•ARTICLE•Violence Against Women•2018•Citada por: 5•Referências: 16

    How are the images of abused South Asian marriage migrants shaped by domestic violence advocates? We explore the social constructions of battered Asian Indian marriage migrants in the victim advocates' narratives. First, we find the narratives both reproduce and challenge the dominant stereotypes, utilizing some individualistic typifications while constructing these images with an understanding of the broader context of battered South Asian women…

  • A Case Study of State-Level Policymakers' Discursive Co-Constructions of Welfare Drug Testing Policy and Gender, Race, and Class

    Open Access•Kalynn Amundson, Anna Zajicek•ARTICLE•Sociological Inquiry•2018•Citada por: 3•Referências: 21

    Welfare provision is distributed based on determinations of recipient worthiness, commonly assessed by racial- and gender-specific characterizations of the poor as constructed through policy discourse. Social constructions of the poor contribute to the construction of welfare policy discourse and subsequently welfare policy. Welfare drug testing policy raises questions of the co-constructions of race, class, and gender and welfare drug testing di…

  • Immigration Provisions in the Violence Against Women Act

    Sonia Kapur, Anna Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Women & Politics•2017•Citada por: 11•Referências: 26

    We explore the perspectives of 26 domestic violence advocates from 14 nonprofit organizations on gaps in the immigration-related provisions of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) as these relate to the intersectional needs and experiences of Asian Indian marriage migrants. Findings indicate that, based on immigration status and other intersectional locations, policy provisions differentially affect this population. In addition, because agencies…

    Using interviews of 26 nonprofit domestic violence advocates, this article analyzes how South Asian–focused nonprofit organizations in the United States address the domestic violence–related intersectional needs of Asian Indian marriage migrants and the challenges they encounter in doing so. Our research indicates that these organizations offer services addressing a combination of structural and cultural needs that emerge from their clients’ soci…

  • A Social Metamorphosis

    Kalynn Amundson, Anna Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Sociological Spectrum•2015•Citada por: 2•Referências: 24

    The worthiness of welfare recipients has long been questioned. However, their stereotypic depictions have changed throughout the decades. In 1996, The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) authorized drug testing welfare recipients and denial of benefits for testing positive. The subsequent proliferation of drug testing policy proposals in states across the United States raises questions regarding the portrayal …

    The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA) authorized drug testing of welfare recipients as a criterion for assistance eligibility. This raises the question of a possible confluence of War on Drugs and Welfare Reform policies, as indicated by continuity in policymakers’ rhetoric. We examine federal-level policymakers’ debates surrounding the authorization of drug testing welfare recipients. The analysis r…

    This study is intended to advance the application of an intersectional approach that focuses on the simultaneous operation of gender, race/ethnicity, and sexuality to the analysis of visual media, such as advertisements. Despite the growing advocacy to systematically include intersectionality in our analyses of people's experiences and identities, on the one hand, and their images/representations, on the other, sociologists still tend to analyze …

  • Strategies of Resistance to Stigmatization Among White Middle-Class Singles

    Anna Zajicek, Anna M Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Sociological Spectrum•2003•Citada por: 8

    Goffman's analysis of stigma management recently has been re-examined by scholars who focus on the ways in which actors not only manage but also resist stigmatization. This article represents a similar effort. Building on existing literature and interviews with 28 British middle-class respondents, we explore how single people who are stigmatized and marginalized in a culture that celebrates family and marriage resist cultural devaluation. While w…

  • Race Discourses and Antiracist Practices in a Local Women's Movement

    Anna Zajicek, Anna M Zajicek•ARTICLE•Gender & Society•2002•Referências: 9

    Increasingly, feminist scholars examine how the stability of racial hierarchies is maintained through discourse. This article explores the importance of race discourse in the construction of white women's accounts explaining their race politics. Specifically, the author examines the connections between race discourse and politics as they emerged in interviews with white women involved in a local women's movement between 1972 and 1999. The intervi…

    In spite of many notable attempts to overcome one-dimensional ,approaches to sexuality,' debates over its meaning have been dominatedbyextremeviews. 2 At first, it has been argued that the issue of sexuality belongs to the domain of body, biology and sexual nature.' Since the 1980s, this view has been challenged by social constructionists who argue that both sexual nature and sexual identity are socially constructed.' Recently, an extreme argumen…

  • Weathering the Storm

    Open Access•Anna Zajicek, Anna M Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Humanity & Society•2000•Referências: 8

    Underlying this research is the authors' belief that labor unions have played. and will continue to play, an important role in defending workers' rights. But the extent to which labor unions will be able to carry on this role in the future depends on whether they survive the attacks of the corporate community and the anti-labor governments. We began this research with the premise that comparative-historical studies have the potential to make an i…

  • Patriarchal Struggles and State Practices

    Open Access•Anna Zajicek, Anna M Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Gender & Society•1998•Citada por: 2•Referências: 9

    Feminist scholars challenge ahistorical conceptions of the patriarchal state and emphasize the importance of power struggles across class, race, and gender lines in transforming state gender policies. They also unintentionally downplay the ideological power struggles among race- and class-homogeneous patriarchal institutions, especially in relatively monolithic political contexts with little or no independent feminist movement. Our historical (19…

    In this paper we juxtapose assimilationist and diversity arguments found in recent metatheoretical discussions about a crisis in North American sociology. Each argument identifies a very different crisis, yet the remedies proposed appear similar in certain instances. We suggest that the assimilationist response to the crisis reproduces it, because this response requires exclusivity in sociological inquiry. Diversity reasoning acknowledges differe…

    Open Access•Sonia Kapur, Anna Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Affilia•2015•Citada por: 13•Referências: 15

    Using interviews of 26 nonprofit domestic violence advocates, this article analyzes how South Asian–focused nonprofit organizations in the United States address the domestic violence–related intersectional needs of Asian Indian marriage migrants and the challenges they encounter in doing so. Our research indicates that these organizations offer services addressing a combination of structural and cultural needs that emerge from their clients’ soci…

  • A Social Metamorphosis

    Kalynn Amundson, Anna Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Sociological Spectrum•2015•Citada por: 2•Referências: 24

    The worthiness of welfare recipients has long been questioned. However, their stereotypic depictions have changed throughout the decades. In 1996, The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) authorized drug testing welfare recipients and denial of benefits for testing positive. The subsequent proliferation of drug testing policy proposals in states across the United States raises questions regarding the portrayal …

  • Immigration Provisions in the Violence Against Women Act

    Sonia Kapur, Anna Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Women & Politics•2017•Citada por: 11•Referências: 26

    We explore the perspectives of 26 domestic violence advocates from 14 nonprofit organizations on gaps in the immigration-related provisions of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) as these relate to the intersectional needs and experiences of Asian Indian marriage migrants. Findings indicate that, based on immigration status and other intersectional locations, policy provisions differentially affect this population. In addition, because agencies…

  • Constructions of Battered Asian Indian Marriage Migrants

    Open Access•Sonia Kapur, Anna Zajicek•ARTICLE•Violence Against Women•2018•Citada por: 5•Referências: 16

    How are the images of abused South Asian marriage migrants shaped by domestic violence advocates? We explore the social constructions of battered Asian Indian marriage migrants in the victim advocates' narratives. First, we find the narratives both reproduce and challenge the dominant stereotypes, utilizing some individualistic typifications while constructing these images with an understanding of the broader context of battered South Asian women…

  • A Case Study of State-Level Policymakers' Discursive Co-Constructions of Welfare Drug Testing Policy and Gender, Race, and Class

    Open Access•Kalynn Amundson, Anna Zajicek•ARTICLE•Sociological Inquiry•2018•Citada por: 3•Referências: 21

    Welfare provision is distributed based on determinations of recipient worthiness, commonly assessed by racial- and gender-specific characterizations of the poor as constructed through policy discourse. Social constructions of the poor contribute to the construction of welfare policy discourse and subsequently welfare policy. Welfare drug testing policy raises questions of the co-constructions of race, class, and gender and welfare drug testing di…

  • Gender and Race Differences in Faculty Assessment of Tenure Clarity

    Open Access•Rodica Lisnic, Anna Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Sociology of Race and Ethnicity•2019•Citada por: 7•Referências: 62

    The authors look at how the intersection of gender and race influences pretenure faculty members' perceptions of the clarity of tenure expectations. The authors also seek to identify potential predictors (assessment of mentoring, relationships with peers, feedback on progress toward tenure, and of fairness in tenure decision making and evaluation) of perceptions of tenure clarity for four intersectionally defined groups, including historically un…

  • Work-Family Balance and Tenure Reasonableness

    Rodica Lisnic, Anna Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Sociological Spectrum•2019•Citada por: 1•Referências: 56

    Perceptions of work–family balance and of the reasonableness of tenure expectations are key faculty retention factors. Using a national job satisfaction survey with 2438 tenure-track assistant professors, we explore whether faculty assessment of departmental and institutional support for family–work balance and their satisfaction with family-friendly policies influence their perceptions of the reasonableness of tenure expectations. We pay attenti…

  • A changing landscape? An intersectional analysis of race and gender disparity in access to social capital

    Song Yang, Brandon A Jackson et al.•ARTICLE•Sociological Spectrum•2021•Citada por: 2•Referências: 45

    We apply intersectional frameworks and use a nationally representative dataset to investigate patterns of differential access to social capital among six racial and gender groups. We define social capital as resources controlled by individuals’ social contacts. Individuals can mobilize those contacts to facilitate their actions. We characterize one’s access to social capital with three indicators: the average occupational prestige score of indivi…

  • Women Faculty in STEM Disciplines

    Open Access•Rodica Lisnic, Anna Zajicek et al.•ARTICLE•Humanity & Society•2022•Citada por: 1•Referências: 57

    Using data from a national survey of tenure-track faculty job satisfaction, the purpose of the study is to explore predictors of perceptions of tenure clarity for faculty in STEM and non-STEM fields. We build on extant studies and use the gendered organization framework as the conceptual lens to examine whether for four groups of faculty (women and men in STEM, and women and men in non-STEM) assessment of fairness in tenure decisions and evaluati…
