Canadian Sociologists in the First Person
Minding the skills gap
This article outlines findings from exploratory research undertaken by the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) considering questions of supply of and demand for town planners. Three themes are identified in the literature in this field: skills and training needs, recruitment and retention issues, and perceptions of the planning profession. Noting that these strands are often interdependent, the paper discusses solutions and findings. As an explo…
Participatory and Spatial Analyses of Environmental Justice Communities’ Concerns about a Proposed Storm Surge and Flood Protection Seawall
In response to increasing threats from sea-level rise and storm surge, the City of Charleston, South Carolina, and the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) propose constructing a seawall around the Charleston peninsula. The proposed seawall will terminate close to lower wealth, predominantly minority communities. These communities are identified as environmental justice (EJ) communities due to their history of inequitable burdens of industrial and …
Obligations and Omissions
Who wants to go back to the Harper era (2006–15) to review the gender logics and regimes of that Canadian conservative government? Apparently many scholars want to, and have, with good reason. The

"Beyond "Obligatory Camaraderie
While feminisms have aimed to disengage women’s dependence on dyadic enmeshment with men, few have attended to the idea that friendship among women can also be unreasonably greedy. This article suggests Zadie Smith’s NW and Mariko and Jillian Tamaki’s Skim are good novels through which to ask if women’s friendship can accommodate more autonomy, and what that might look like. Foucault’s concept of “obligatory camaraderie” is helpful here for under…
A Corporation in Feminist Clothing? Young Women Discuss the Dove 'Real Beauty' Campaign
The Dove campaign for 'real beauty' has been exceptionally successful, generating public attention and increased sales. This article uses focus group analysis to investigate how young, feminist-identified women understand the campaign, and how they respond when a corporation encourages them to exercise their politics through consumption. We ask whether the campaign is seen as compatible with their vision of feminism, and whether corporations are …

Enduring Friendship
Homeland Tourism, Emotion, and Identity Labor
Concern over intergenerational ethnic continuity, with members of minority groups seeking to ensure that youth become invested in and committed to religious, cultural, or ethnic identities, is long-standing and inherent to group boundary formation. In recent years, this concern has been particularly pronounced in the North American Jewish community, with socialization and retention of Jewish young adults emerging as one of its central preoccupati…
Autonomy and Compliance
Rich Sensitivities
While the North American women's movement is most known for its efforts to transform social relations between women and men, its adherents have also focused on remaking relations among women. Using an innovative data source, social movement memoir, this paper indicates the depth of disappointment feminists cause one another. Memoirists dispute notions found in the movement and mainstream that women are socially capable. The paper offers the conce…

The Problem of Women's Sociality in Contemporary North American Feminist Memoir
Systematic analysis of 25 contemporary North American feminist memoirs reveals the significance of this kind of cultural production in the life of the women's movement. In memoir, feminists contest dominant movement narratives, recast and reclaim conventional gender stereotypes, and use their experiences to refine movement ideas and goals. Combining sociological aggregation and pattern identification and interpretivist understandings of memoir's …

Organizational Elaboration as Social Movement Tactic
This research contributes to our understanding of two central and related problems in the study of social movements: tactical innovation and strategic leadership. Focusing on the leadership history (1984–2003) of the founder and director of the first US public school program for gay and lesbian youth, called Project 10 and located in the Los Angeles, California public school system, this case study illustrates the importance of leadership agency …
Les tactiques féministes confrontées aux « tirs amis » dans le mouvement des femmes en Irlande
Cet article examine les modèles courants d'intelligibilité de l'interaction tactique entre les acteurs des mouvements sociaux et montre leur insuffisance pour rendre compte de l'invention tactique dont a dû faire preuve le mouvement des femmes en Irlande. Une analyse des efforts déployés par les féministes irlandaises pour l'extension du droit à l'avortement met en question l'idée que les innovations tactiques ne répondraient qu'aux contre-mouvem…
The Emotional Contradictions of Identity Politics
This case study of the birth and death of a human relations commission in California contributes to our understanding of the emotional stakes of social movement participation and the meaning of multiculturalism in the U.S. post-civil rights era. The research indicates the extent to which resonant movement frames are necessary for movement success and how their absence can cause emotional harm to movement adherents. In this account of institutiona…
Who Manages Feminist-Inspired Reform? An In-Depth Look at Title IX Coordinators in the United States
This article presents an analysis of the political consciousness and commitments of six gender equity coordinators who served in the same public agency in the United States during a 20-year period in an effort to contribute knowledge about the people who institute movement-inspired laws and the diverse ways in which they come to understand their mandates and the organizational and political milieus within which they work. The author's findings co…
Cultural Dilemmas of Progressive Politics
Despite there having been no significant move to the right in recent years in public political opinion, conservatives have fared much better than progressives. This text explores the reasons for this pattern through examination of case studies of grassroots movements. The book focuses particularly on the economic justice work carried on by congregation-based community organizing and the pursuit of human rights by local members of Amnesty Internat…
Petra and the Lost Kingdom of the Nabataeans
The Nabataean Arabs were one of the most remarkable peoples of the Ancient World but are today known only for their hauntingly beautiful rock-carved capital - Petra. Though seen most clearly at Petra, vivid traces of their creativity and control also appear in the Hejaz region of Arabia, among the wild rock formations of Wadi Rum, along trade and pilgrimage routes in the Sinai, and in towns and temples throughout Jordan and into Syria. This illus…
Feminist Tactics and Friendly Fire in the Irish Women's Movement
This work considers current models for understanding tactical interaction among social movement actors and finds them insufficient for making sense of the tactical work required of the Irish women's movement. Analysis of Irish feminist efforts to expand reproductive freedom calls into question the idea that tactical innovations are solely responses to countermovements or state repression. In this case, feminist activists spent considerable energy…
