BOOK NOTE Integrating the "Underclass": Confronting America's Enduring Apartheid Olati Johnson* AMERICAN APARTHEID: SEGREGATION AND THE MAKING OF THE UNDERCLASS. By Douglas S. Masseyt & Nancy A. Denton.t Cambridge, Mass: Harvard University Press. 1993. 292 pp. $14.95. Douglas Massey and Nancy Denton's American Apartheid argues that housing integration has inappropriatelydisappeared from the nationalagenda and is critical to remedying the problems of the so-called "underclass." Re- viewer Olati Johnson praises the authors' refusal to dichotomize race and class and the roles both play in creatingand maintaininghousing segregation. However, she argues, Massey and Dentonfail to examine critically either the concept of the underclass or the integration ideology they espouse. Specifi- cally, she contends, the authorsfail to confront the limits of integration strate- gies in providing affordable housing or combating the problem of tokenism.

In this course, we will identify the basic contours of the structure and culture of social inequality in the United States and beyond through engagement with sociological research on class, race, gender, and immigration. Through our reading and active participation in lectures, we will develop answers to the central questions that motivate much sociological inquiry into inequality: Who gets what? Who is included and excluded? How and why? Should/can inequality be addressed? OBJECTIVES In this introductory course on social inequality, we will: 1. Develop a descriptive and analytical understanding of inequality 2. Explore central concepts through which sociologists investigate inequality. 3. Become familiar with key debates that animate contemporary research on inequality. 4. Consider and critique competing explanations for distribution and recognition conceived as two dynamic dimensions of inequality. 5. Mobilize the analytical tools learned in this course to make sense of your own experience with the various dimensions of inequality (access to resources and (mis)recognition). 6. Consider how you can address the challenges presented by inequality in the current moment (e.g. by lowering stigmatization in your immediate environment, collaborating with various NGOs, etc.). REQUIREMENTS In service of our objectives for the course, you are asked to: 1.

Sociology of Race and Ethnicity 2015, Vol. 1(1) 10 –21 “The White Space” © American Sociological Association 2014 DOI: 10.1177/2332649214561306 sre.sagepub.com Elijah Anderson1 Abstract Since the end of the Civil Rights Movement, large numbers of black people have made their way into settings previously occupied only by whites, though their reception has been mixed. Overwhelmingly white neighborhoods, schools, workplaces, restaurants, and other public spaces remain. Blacks perceive such settings as “the white space,” which they often consider to be informally “off limits” for people like them. Meanwhile, despite the growth of an enormous black middle class, many whites assume that the natural black space is that destitute and fearsome locality so commonly featured in the public media, including popular books, music and videos, and the TV news—the iconic ghetto. White people typically avoid black space, but black people are required to navigate the white space as a condition of their existence. Keywords color line, discrimination, prejudice, racism, racial profiling, segregation Over the past half century, American society has churches and other associations, courthouses, and undergone a major racial incorporation process, dur- cemeteries, a situation that reinforces a normative ing which large numbers of black people have made sensibility in settings in which black people are their way from urban ghettos into many settings pre- typically absent, not expected, or marginalized viously occupied only by whites. Toward the end of when present. In turn, blacks often refer to such the Civil Rights Movement, massive riots occurred settings colloquially as “the white space”—a per- in cities across the country, as blacks grew increas- ceptual category—and they typically approach that ingly insistent and militant (see Wicker 1968).

  • Institutional Transmission of Inequality Fall 2016 Thursday, 1:00-3:40Pm
    SOCIOLOGY 571: INSTITUTIONAL TRANSMISSION OF INEQUALITY FALL 2016 THURSDAY, 1:00-3:40PM INSTRUCTOR: HANA SHEPHERD [email protected] OFFICE HOURS: THURSDAY 11-12PM, DAVISON HALL ROOM 126 Course Description. The premise of this class is that processes in and around organizations located within fields are centrally important to understanding the emergence of, persistence of, and change in forms of social inequality. As such, the focus of the class is on research and examples that illustrate the various ways that organizations in organizational fields such as work, schools, criminal justice, social welfare state, housing, and health, shape inequality. This focus is in contrast to the behavior of individuals outside of organizations, or the idiosyncratic behaviors of individuals within organizations. Scholars of inequality, particularly in labor markets, have called for examining the “mechanisms” or underlying processes generating inequality for more than a decade. This class uses those calls as a starting point. We will examine several elements of formal organizations, focusing in particular on the first and the last: organizational practices, organizational gatekeepers, networks, legal environment, and organizational forms. We could conduct an entire class on any one of these areas, each is sufficiently rich. As such, the main goal of the class is to make connections across substantive domains instead of developing expertise in any one domain. Looking at them together should allow us to compare processes to each other. This will be the main challenge for the class: to interrogate the extent to which the processes we see in the examples from the readings are the same or different from each other, whether they capture much of what is important to understand about the dynamics of social inequality or whether important processes are missing, whether processes occur similarly across different organizational fields.

    WP 2004-10 August 2004 Working Paper Department of Applied Economics and Management Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853-7801 USA CONCEPTUAL FERMENT IN POVERTY AND INEQUALITY: The View from Economics and Sociology David Grusky and Ravi Kanbur It is the Policy of Cornell University actively to support equality of educational and employment opportunity. No person shall be denied admission to any educational program or activity or be denied employment on the basis of any legally prohibited discrimination involving, but not limited to, such factors as race, color, creed, religion, national or ethnic origin, sex, age or handicap. The University is committed to the maintenance of affirmative action programs which will assure the continuation of such equality of opportunity. Conceptual Ferment in Poverty and Inequality Measurement: The View from Economics and Sociology* August 2004 David Grusky, Stanford University Ravi Kanbur, Cornell University * Introductory essay to a forthcoming volume, Conceptual Challenges in Poverty and Inequality, edited by David Grusky and Ravi Kanbur, with contributions by Francois Bourguignon, Martha Fineman, Douglas Massey, Martha Nussbaum, Amartya Sen and William Julius Wilson, to be published by Stanford University Press. The papers were presented at a conference of the same title, at Cornell University in April 2002. It is especially revealing to study disciplinary differences within topic areas that the disciplines of interest regard as equally fundamental to their missions. In such cases, the discipline-specific approaches are unusually well-developed, and differences tend to emerge in especially sharp relief. This characterization is seemingly on the mark in understanding how economics and sociology have approached issues of poverty and inequality.
