    ARTICLE IN PRESS Global Environmental Change 18 (2008) 204–219 www.elsevier.com/locate/gloenvcha Experiences of modernity in the greenhouse: A cultural analysis of a physicist ‘‘trio’’ supporting the backlash against global warming Myanna Lahsenà Center for Science and Technology Policy Research, University of Colorado and Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Epaciais (INPE), Av. dos Astronautas, 1758, Sa˜o Jose´ dos Campos, SP 12227-010 Brazil Received 18 March 2007; received in revised form 5 October 2007; accepted 29 October 2007 Abstract This paper identifies cultural and historical dimensions that structure US climate science politics. It explores why a key subset of scientists—the physicist founders and leaders of the influential George C. Marshall Institute—chose to lend their scientific authority to this movement which continues to powerfully shape US climate policy. The paper suggests that these physicists joined the environmental backlash to stem changing tides in science and society, and to defend their preferred understandings of science, modernity, and of themselves as a physicist elite—understandings challenged by on-going transformations encapsulated by the widespread concern about human-induced climate change. r 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

  • Sarah Haley, No Mercy Here: Gender, Punishment, and the Making of Jim Crow Modernity (University of North Carolina Press, 2016)
    No Mercy Here 181 BOOK REVIEW Sarah Haley, No Mercy Here: Gender, Punishment, and the Making of Jim Crow Modernity (University of North Carolina Press, 2016) Viviane Saleh-Hanna* arah Haley’s NO MERCY HERE: GENDER, PUNIShmENT, AND THE MAKIng of Jim Crow Modernity is a beautifully written, empirical yet nuanced account of imprisoned and paroled Black women’s lives, deaths, and Sstruggles under convict leasing, chain gang, and parole regimes in Georgia at the turn of the twentieth century. Although the majority of Haley’s book focuses on Black women, she notes that 18 percent of Black female prison- ers were not yet 17 years old (42). One prisoner was 11 years old (96) at the time of her sentencing. The majority were young adults, many in their early twenties, some remaining imprisoned for decades. All, regardless of age, were sentenced to hard labor. Haley ties together wide-ranging archival data gathered from criminal justice agency reports and proceedings, government-sponsored commissions to examine prison and labor conditions, petitions and clemency applica- tions, letters, newspaper articles, era-specific research, Black women’s blues, historic speeches, and other social movement materials. This breadth of data coupled with Haley’s Black feminist analysis and methodology unearths the issues of Black women’s imprisonment, abuse, rape, and forced labor under Jim Crow’s carceral push into modernity. Haley also presents records of white women’s imprisonment, as well as their living and labor conditions, and discusses the responses these elicited from politicians, criminal justice agents, social organizations, and media outlets. Though the number of white women ensnared within Georgia’s * Viviane Saleh-Hanna is Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of Crime and Justice Studies at the University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth.

  • HIST 5310.W01: Race, Sex, & Power
    HIST 5310.W01: Race, Sex, & Power: America, 1519-1919 PROFESSOR: DR. WILLIAMSON OFFICE: LH 211 EMAIL: [email protected] OFFICE HOURS: TR 12:20-2pm, or by appointment CLASS: Web ROOM: LH 201 Course Description: How do those in power construct race, sex, and sexuality? Through analysis of key historical events and movements, this course demonstrates that concepts of race, sex, and sexuality, rather than attributes fixed in nature, are both fluid and socially and historically constructed. We will attempt to understand historical changes in conceptions of “normal” as it pertains to race, sex, and sexual orientations, and we will ask why various ideas about sexual behavior and power developed alongside religious, political, and cultural belief systems. We will also examine the ways that race and sex have been regulated through various legal, social, and political means, as well as through racial and sexual violence, and the ways these topics were represented in the media. Overall, the class will challenge the notion that American history has moved from the repressive world of the Puritans to the more liberated, modern ideals of the twenty-first century. In terms of content, we will learn how race and sex have structured and been structured by laws concerning cultural contact, marriage, slavery, immigration, and public space. We will also learn how science and medicine have been enlisted in the service of granting legitimacy and a sense of permanence to transitory ideas of race, sex, and sexual orientation. Finally, we will obtain familiarity with key watershed events in American history from the sixteenth through the early twentieth centuries, including Spanish contact with Native Americans, the evolution of racial slavery, the framing of the U.S.

We hear charges of “racial profiling” and “class distinction” being made, and issues of segregation and racial equality still plague us. SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION 2016 RESOLUTION ON RACISM WHEREAS, SBC President Ronnie Floyd has rallied Southern Baptists to “rise up and cry out against racism that still exists in our nation and our churches,” recognizing we are in a “desperate hour” that calls us to “replace these evils with the beauty of grace and love”; and WHEREAS, In 1995, the Southern Baptist Convention repudiated “historic acts of evil, such as slavery,” and committed “to eradicate racism in all its forms from Southern Baptist life and ministry”; and WHEREAS, In more recent resolutions the Southern Baptist Convention called “all Christian men and women to pray and labor for the day when our Lord will set all things right and racial prejudice and injustice will be no more” (2014) and expressed continued grief “over the presence of racism and the recent escalation of racial tension in our nation” (2015); and WHEREAS, More

    Journal of Criminal Justice and Law Review : Vol. 1 • No. 1 • June 2009 IDENTIFYING LARGE REPLICABLE FILM POPULATIONS IN SOCIAL SCIENCE FILM RESEARCH: A UNIFIED FILM POPULATION IDENTIFICATION METHODOLOGY FRANKLIN T. WILSON Indiana State University ABSTRACT: Historically, a dominant proportion of academic studies of social science issues in theatrically released films have focused on issues surrounding crime and the criminal justice system. Additionally, a dominant proportion has utilized non-probability sampling methods in identifying the films to be analyzed. Arguably one of the primary reasons film studies of social science issues have used non-probability samples may be that no one has established definitive operational definitions of populations of films, let alone develop datasets from which researchers can draw. In this article a new methodology for establishing film populations for both qualitative and quantitative research–the Unified Film Population Identification Methodology–is both described and demonstrated. This methodology was created and is presented here in hopes of expand the types of film studies utilized in the examination of social science issues to those communication theories that require the examination of large blocks of media. Further, it is anticipated that this methodology will help unify film studies of social science issues in the future and, as a result, increase the reliability, validity, and replicability of the said studies. Keywords: UFPIM, Film, Core Cop, Methodology, probability. Mass media research conducted in the academic realm has generally been theoretical in nature, utilizing public data, with research agendas emanating from the academic researchers themselves. Academic studies cover a gambit of areas including, but not limited to, antisocial and prosocial effects of specific media content, uses and gratifications, agenda setting by the media, and the cultivation of perceptions of social reality (Wimmer & Dominick, 2003).
