Rights, Economics, or Family?Frame Resonance, Political Ideology, and the Immigrant Rights Movement
Although social movement scholars in the United States have long ignored activism over immigration, this movement raises important theoretical and empirical questions, especially given many immigrants' lack of citizenship. Is the rights “master” frame, used extensively by other US social movements, persuasive in making claims for noncitizens? If not, which other movement frames resonate with the public? We leverage survey experiments—largely the …
Same as It Ever Was? New Labor, the CIO Organizing Model, and the Future of American Unions
Jane McAlevey makes a significant contribution in her critique of labor's growing use of the corporate campaign to stem union decline. But in placing the blame for the strategy's adoption on the excessive influence of Saul Alinsky's organizing model, she misses a much more fundamental cause: the changed nature of capital
Rallying for immigrant rights
"From Alaska to Florida, millions of immigrants and their supporters took to the streets across the United States to rally for immigrant rights in the spring of 2006. The scope and size of their protests, rallies, and boycotts made these the most significant events of political activism in the United States since the 1960s. This accessibly written volume offers the first comprehensive analysis of this historic moment. Perfect for students and gen…

Enduring Legacy? Charles Tilly and Durable Inequality
This article assesses Charles Tilly's Durable Inequality and traces its influence. In writing Durable Inequality, Tilly sought to shift the research agenda of stratification scholars. But the book's initial impact was disappointing. In recent years, however, its influence has grown, suggesting a more enduring legacy

Labor Movement
The labor movement is a broad, multidimensional social formation that is generated from the social structures of work and industry in a society. It may comprise both legally recognized and formally sanctioned institutions (like trade unions, political parties, and works councils) as well as less formal groupings of workers and their allies (industrial actions, organizations of strike supporters, dissident movements within unions, cultural forms, …
Hard Work
This concise overview of the labor movement in the United States focuses on why American workers have failed to develop the powerful unions that exist in other industrialized countries. Packed with valuable analysis and information, Hard Work explores historical perspectives, examines social and political policies, and brings us inside today's unions, providing an excellent introduction to labor in America. Hard Work begins with a comparison of t…
Breaking the Iron Law of Oligarchy
The recent revitalization of the American labor movement presents a paradox for social movement scholars. Long seen as exemplifying the conservative goal and tactical transformation associated with Michels’s iron law of oligarchy, few would expect organized labor to embrace radical goals and tactics. Yet some local unions have done just that. This article addresses the question of how social movement organizations are able to break out of bureauc…

The collapse of a social movement
Failure is an unpopular subject among social movement scholars. Like death and taxes at social gatherings, it is a topic that many of us avoid. In contrast, the birth of insurgency is eagerly debated. As a result, our theories of movement emergence are much more sophisticated and convincing than our models of movement development and decline. However, while social movement failure is a neglected topic theoretically, in the empirical world it occu…
Inequality by Design
As debate rages over the widening and destructive gap between the rich and the rest of Americans, Claude Fischer and his colleagues present a comprehensive new treatment of inequality in America. They challenge arguments that expanding inequality is the natural, perhaps necessary, accompaniment of economic growth. They refute the claims of the incendiary bestseller The Bell Curve (1994) through a clear, rigorous re-analysis of the very data its a…
The political economy of inequality in the “age of extremes”
Massey spresidential address correctly points to growing economic inequality as one of the pressing issues of our day, but his analysis gives short shrift to the political institutions that underlie the economic trends. We supplement his analysis with a review of some of those institutions. In particular we point out how politics mediates between computerized production and inequality, between the segregation of education and inequality, and (dra…
