1. Strategic Inversion: How Refugees Reconfigure Everyday Resistance under Benevolent Oppression.
PMID:日期:2026-09-15What does everyday resistance look like among dominated populations experiencing paternalistic care rather than extraction? Research on everyday resistance emerged from contexts where power extracts surplus from the oppressed. In this scholarship, the backstage is a space where the dominated cultivate hidden transcripts to cope with oppression, while the frontstage, where performances are enacted to those in power, is primary. Inversions of this order, when they occur, are momentary. Using ethnographic fieldwork in two Tanzanian refugee camps, we show that under benevolent oppression-control justified by paternalistic care rather than extraction-dominated populations respond through "strategic inversion": a reordering of dramaturgical space where the backstage is primary and the frontstage remains tactical. Refugees moved the center of social life backstage, into a thriving underground economy, and kept up frontstage displays of helplessness to shield it. Within this alternative social order, competition and cooperation operated as two routes to (dignity/deference). Competition resisted the uniformity of the refugee label, and cooperation rejected the helplessness it presumed. Refugees sustained this inversion through , rule-following performances so dense that officials could not tell forbidden from permitted activity; , as guards became accomplices in maintaining the clandestine economy they policed; and , where communities maintained alert systems and consistent performances to shield backstage activities. Our analysis extends research on everyday resistance by demonstrating that under benevolent oppression, subordinates actively build and experience empowerment, rather than merely imagining alternative moral orders or experiencing them briefly in bounded rituals.

2. Temporal Misalignment and Unequal Agency: What Terminal Cancer Patients Teach Us about Time and Inequality.
PMID:日期:2026-06-09This article examines how time both exacerbates and destabilizes existing inequality by stratifying agency. Drawing on five years of fieldwork in nine cancer clinics and 196 in-depth interviews with 96 patients navigating a terminal cancer diagnosis toward the end of life, we show the centrality of "temporal misalignment"-a mismatch between the temporalities enacted by individual actions and those imposed by institutional contexts structuring when and how action is possible. A combination of ethnographic data and multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) reveals how effective use of resources requires cancer patients to (1) triage conflicting demands of treatment, work, family, and bureaucratic schedules; (2) reconcile mismatched trajectories of disease progression and healthcare institutions; and (3) anchor uncertain decisions at present in an anticipatable future. These efforts to manage temporal misalignment not only reproduce resource disparities, but also create new, imminent, and often embodied constraints on agency that even the most advantaged patients find resource-draining and goal-displacing as the disease progresses. Reconceptualizing time as a ruptured relationship between agency and contexts offers important sociological insights into how resources, institutions, and culture operate and intertwine to shape inequality in healthcare and beyond.

3. Countervailing Powers: Labor Unions Against the Buyer Power of Walmart Supercenters.
3. 抗衡力量：工会对抗沃尔玛超级购物中心的买方势力PMID:日期:2026-05-27Power is central to sociological accounts of economic inequality; however, buyer power-market conditions in which one or a few dominant employers can limit workers' outside options for employment-has received little attention relative to worker power. We study how the entry of Walmart Supercenters, the archetype of a high-buyer-power employer, affects the size and protective strength of union membership (a key dimension of worker power). We analyze (1) whether greater worker power dissuades Walmart Supercenters from entering a local labor market, (2) whether a successful Supercenter entry subsequently erodes local union membership, and (3) whether unions provide a protective effect against declining earnings after a successful Supercenter entry. We apply stacked difference-in-differences estimates based on county-year variation in Walmart Supercenter openings using restricted-access Panel Study of Income Dynamics data. We find that Walmart Supercenters are less likely to enter a local labor market that has high levels of union membership, even when conditioning on attempted Walmart entries. When Walmart Supercenter openings do occur, union membership declines by an average of 3.5 percentage points, and this is channeled through declining union membership in retail. Remaining union members are not protected against Walmart's downward pressure on earnings; in fact, annual earnings among workers who were unionized pre-treatment decline faster than for non-union members after a Walmart Supercenter opens. Worker power can be effective at preventing a rise in buyer power, but conditional on increases in buyer power, worker power tends to decline in terms of both size and protective strength. The sociological study of labor market power ought to consider how prevailing levels of buyer power can moderate the ability of organized labor to achieve its social and economic aims.

4. Living with Ghosts: How Physical Traces of the Past Shape Cultural Trauma in Chinatowns.
4. 与鬼魂共存：过去的物质痕迹如何塑造唐人街的文化创伤PMID:日期:2026-03-13[中文摘要] 文化创伤是指过去的伤害经历如何能够从根本上改变一个社区的共享身份认同，并有可能激发团结感，为社区提供一种共同目标感。本文考察了文化创伤在面对绅士化等当代挑战时，如何激励和引导加拿大和美国保护历史唐人街的持续努力。我们展示了活动人士如何将自己理解为在延续一场可追溯至十九世纪的反对反华种族主义的斗争。为了解释文化创伤在当代的显著性，我们将唐人街概念化为“文化蓄水池”，它们积累了过往伤害的物质痕迹。这些痕迹作为创伤的标志性表征：令人挥之不去的提醒，昭示着唐人街在北美城市中岌岌可危的地位。我们识别出由不同物质过程产生的三种标志类型：顽固型、熵变型和补救型。通过揭示物质环境在创伤过程中的重要性，我们调和了聚焦于历史事件本身的实在论取向与关于这些事件随后如何被纳入集体记忆的建构论解释。文化蓄水池并不决定当代社区将如何记忆其过去，但它们所保存的物质痕迹创造了某些体验和情境，在其中创伤叙事对当代社区而言显得直观且显著。
[英文摘要] Cultural trauma refers to how past experiences of harm can fundamentally transform a community's shared identity, potentially generating feelings of solidarity and providing communities with a sense of common purpose. This article examines the role of cultural trauma in motivating and guiding ongoing efforts to preserve historic Chinatowns in Canada and the United States in the face of contemporary challenges such as gentrification. We demonstrate how activists understand themselves to be continuing a struggle against anti-Chinese racism that extends back to the nineteenth century. Explaining the contemporary salience of trauma, we conceptualize Chinatowns as "cultural reservoirs" that have accumulated physical traces of past harms. These traces serve as iconic representations of trauma: haunting reminders of the tenuous place of Chinatowns in North American cities. We identify three types of icons produced by distinct material processes: stubborn, entropic, and remedial. By identifying the importance of the physical environment in the trauma process, we reconcile a realist focus on historical events themselves with a constructivist account of their subsequent incorporation into collective memory. Cultural reservoirs do not determine how contemporary communities will remember their past, but the physical traces they preserve create experiences and situations in which trauma narratives seem intuitive and salient to contemporary communities.

5. Unsecured Credit and the Social Safety Net in U.S. States.
PMID:日期:2026-02-22Low-income households in the United States draw on public and private resources to manage economic risk. Cross-national scholars describe a "credit-welfare state tradeoff" where credit markets become particularly important when state benefits are less supportive. The United States is frequently highlighted in this regard, with its often-inadequate market-first safety net. Both credit markets and the safety net are, however, highly unequal and segmented across U.S. states. We provide new empirical insights on the credit-welfare state nexus by leveraging a large national sample of credit record data that allows us to distinguish between credit instruments. We link these data to a comprehensive dataset on state safety nets with comparable measures of program supportiveness. We estimate two-way fixed-effects models that exploit temporal variation within states in safety net supportiveness. We find that living in states with more supportive safety nets is associated with a lower probability of high-cost alternative payday, installment and personal finance loan use, and a higher probability of mainstream credit card access, particularly among low-income households. In the context of the relative inadequacy of the U.S. safety net, state safety net supportiveness matters less for whether people borrow than for what credit instruments they use. Our findings suggest that efforts to restrict the U.S. safety net are likely to increase reliance on high-cost loans among low-income households, furthering the unequal burden of interest and fees levied on these households.

6. The Changing Role of Mothers' Status in Children's College Completion.
PMID:日期:2026-01-17Despite vast changes in women's status in society and in the home, we have little understanding of the changing role of mothers in shaping children's life chances. Mothers' contributions may have grown given their increased status-measured here as their education, occupational status, and earnings-and the rise of single-parent families. Using data from three large, nationally representative U.S. surveys, we find that the returns to mothers' status have remained relatively stable and similar to fathers' among children born from the 1930s to the 1980s and thus account for little of observed increases in children's college completion. But this does not mean nothing has changed. Our decomposition results show that the outsized role of recent increases in women's education, occupational status, and earnings for families' standard of living has meant that increased levels of mothers' status account for more of the increase in children's college completion than fathers' status among cohorts born since the 1960s. That continued increases in college completion have more to do with the rising status of mothers than fathers has been overlooked by previous research.

7. Who Can Have a Baby? Social Norms and the Right to Reproduce.
PMID:日期:2025-11-27Childbearing norms and discourse influence social interactions and policy priorities, reflecting and reinforcing social stratification. We propose a theoretical framework that systematically explains stratification and discrimination in childbearing norms. The theory of socially sanctioned reproduction (TSSR) emphasizes how childbearing and reproductive norms are shaped by individual and intersectional attributes of both evaluators and those evaluated, underscoring multidimensionality and intersectionality in childbearing norms. We empirically examine this theory through paired conjoint survey experiments with a population-based sample of women ages 18 to 34 in Pernambuco, Brazil-a highly unequal, multiracial context. In our novel application, respondents assessed profiles of hypothetical married women with randomly varying attributes and reported whether they were well-suited for childbearing. Findings show how intersectional attributes and in-group/out-group dynamics, principally along race and SES lines, define childbearing norms. Black women receive less approval if in low- versus high-SES positions, whereas White women receive similar levels of approval regardless of SES. We find that these discriminatory patterns are shaped by the social attributes of evaluators themselves, suggesting othering and group attachment processes. Our theoretical and empirical frameworks can be extended to study norms in other highly contested areas of reproductive and family life.

8. The "Dark Side" of Community Ties: Collective Action and Lynching in Mexico.
8. 社区纽带的“阴暗面”：墨西哥的集体 action 与私刑PMID:日期:2024-06-07Lynching remains a common form of collective punishment for alleged wrongdoers in Latin America, Africa, and Asia today. Unlike other kinds of collective violence, lynching is usually not carried out by standing organizations. How do lynch mobs overcome the high barriers to violent collective action? I argue that they draw on local community ties to compensate for a lack of centralized organization. Lynch mobs benefit from solidarity and peer pressure, which facilitate collective action. The study focuses on Mexico, where lynching is prevalent and often amounts to the collective beating of thieves. Based on original survey data from Mexico City and a novel lynching event dataset covering the whole of Mexico, I find that individuals with more ties in their communities participate more often in lynching, and municipalities with more highly integrated communities have higher lynching rates. As community ties and lynching may be endogenously related, I also examine the posited mechanisms and the causal direction. Findings reveal that municipalities exposed to a recent major earthquake-an event that tends to increase community ties-subsequently experienced increased levels of lynching. Importantly, I find that interpersonal trust is unrelated to lynching, thus showing that different aspects of social capital have diverging consequences for collective violence, with community ties revealing a "dark side."

9. Doing Genders: Partner's Gender and Labor Market Behavior.
PMID:日期:2024-05-22Partnered men and women show consistently gendered patterns of labor market behavior. We test whether not only a person's own gender, but also their partner's gender shapes hours worked. We use Dutch administrative population data on almost 5,000 persons who had both male and female partners, whose hours worked we observe monthly over 15 years. We argue that this provides a unique setting to assess the relevance of partner's gender for labor market behavior. Using two-way fixed effects and fixed-effects individual slopes models, we find that both men and women tend to work more hours when partnered with a female partner compared to a male partner. These results align with our hypothesis that a partner's gender influences labor market behavior. For women, we conclude that this finding may be (partly) explained by marital and motherhood status. Additionally, we discovered that women decrease their hours worked to a lesser extent when caring for a child if they have a female partner. Finally, we found that for men, the positive association between own and partner's hours worked is weaker when one has a female partner, indicating a higher degree of specialization within these couples.

10. Tokenism and Its Long-Term Consequences: Evidence from the Literary Field.
PMID:日期:2023-12-14Research on tokenism has mostly focused on negative experiences and career outcomes for individuals who are tokenized. Yet tokenism as a structural system that excludes larger populations, and the meso-level cultural foundations under which tokenism occurs, are comparatively understudied. We focus on these additional dimensions of tokenism using original data on the creation and long-term retention of postcolonial literature. In an institutional environment in which the British publishing industry was consolidating the production of non-U.S. global literatures written in English, and readers were beginning to convey status through openness in cultural tastes, the conditions for tokenism emerged. Using data on the emergence of postcolonial literature as a category organized through the Booker Prize for Fiction, we test and find for non-white authors (1) evidence of tokenism, (2) unequal treatment of those under consideration for tokenization, and (3) long-term retention consequences for those who were not chosen. We close with a call for more holistic work across multiple dimensions of tokenism, analyses that address inequality across and within groups, and a reconsideration of tokenism within a broader suite of practices that have grown ascendent across arenas of social life.
