Introduction and Literature Review Abstract SHERWOOD, JESSICA HOLDEN. Talk About Country Clubs: Ideology and the Reproduction of Privilege. (Under the direction of Barbara J. Risman.) This dissertation reports on interviews with members of five exclusive country clubs in the Northeastern United States. At these clubs, membership is extended only by selective invitation after a subjective screening process. The clubs have long histories of racial-ethnic homogeneity, but they now display some demographic diversity while preserving the economic and cultural homogeneity with which members are comfortable, and which they consider an important appeal of the private club. I focus on club members’ explanations around three topics: their clubs’ exclusivity, their racial-ethnic composition, and the status of women members. Subjects minimize the significance of the exclusion they perform by rhetorically pointing to forces beyond their control, and by promoting the American Dream of colorblind, meritocratic equal opportunity. While they use the dominant racial ideology of colorblindness, subjects also show a departure from colorblindness in their active development of and rhetorical emphasis on racial-ethnic diversity in their ranks. Concerning women’s status, club members mostly accept the subordination of women in clubs. To justify it, they rhetorically rely on both the dominant gender ideology and the inequalities in men’s and women’s wealth and domestic responsibilities which originate elsewhere. Club members are called to account for their exclusivity by the American value of egalitarian equal access. But at the same time, other cultural values provide them with the tools needed to successfully explain themselves, even as their talk and actions contribute to the reproduction of class, race, and gender inequalities. This research describes the perspective of wealthy white people, and critiques it as inadequate to a full understanding of the consequences of their actions. It shows how country club members talk and act in ways that help preserve their privileges, and the reasons why they do so. TALK ABOUT COUNTRY CLUBS: IDEOLOGY AND THE REPRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGE by JESSICA HOLDEN SHERWOOD A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of North Carolina State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy SOCIOLOGY Raleigh 2004 APPROVED BY: _____________________________ ___________________________ Chair _____________________________ ___________________________ _____________________________ ___________________________ Dedication For Jesse, and the family we’ve made together ii Biography Jessica Holden Sherwood attended Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts, and Wesleyan University in Connecticut. She received her Masters’ of Science degree from North Carolina State University in 1999. After five years’ residence in the South, she has returned to her homeland of New England with husband Jesse. Jessica enjoys gardening and playing tennis, although that career is presently on hold in favor of the biathlon of caring for a toddler and a baby about to be born. iii Acknowledgements This project would not have been possible without the participation of the interviewees. I thank them all for inviting me into their homes and offices, giving willingly of their time and their thoughts. I appreciate those who opened their address books to refer me to other club members, and especially the important early contacts whose endorsement of my research smoothed the way to securing more interviews. I’m grateful. Being far from my home department as I worked on this dissertation, I cast about eagerly for fellow social scientists to connect with. Several have been kind enough to email and talk with me, and I’m grateful for each dose of inspiration or encouragement, from: Emily Stier Adler, Roger Clark, Lynn Davidman, Bill Domhoff (I was touched by how kind the “big name” was to me, the “no-name”), Carla Hansen, Heather Beth Johnson, Aaron Katz, Leslie Killgore, Susi Krehbiel, Kristen Myers, and Joey Sprague. Perhaps the best contact I made was with Susan Ostrander, who welcomed me from the first time I invited myself to her office. It’s been a privilege to have her serve on my committee, and the dissertation is the better for it. Thanks also to the rest of the committee members, including Amy Halberstadt and Tony LaVopa for their service. And I’m grateful to Rick Della Fave, Michael Schwalbe, and Don Tomaskovic-Devey: for all that they have taught me during graduate school, and for providing the right mixture of critique and encouragement to keep the dissertation rolling along. Barbara Risman has mentored me ever since I was searching for a masters’ thesis topic. She has influenced my graduate career so much, I can’t imagine what it would look like without her. And I’m glad I don’t have to: Barbara is a main reason that I have learned iv all I have, and gotten satisfaction from the process. I have always appreciated her insightful advice, and I admire the example Barbara sets of living by her principles. She never once made me feel like my demands on her time were problematic or low priority, even in the context of a career which includes leadership of national organizations. Every graduate student should be so lucky to find in a mentor Barbara’s combination of caring and savvy. And every graduate student should be lucky enough to have a close friend by her side through all the ups and downs. I have been fortunate to have Molly Monahan as a friend since the beginning of school eight years ago. Professionally, I have appreciated her genuine enthusiasm for the work of sociology, and have wanted to absorb some of the energy she exudes. Personally, I have come through graduate school in better mental health for having her there with me every step of the way. I remember discussing with Molly the fear of joining the ranks of the terminal doctoral candidates; we decided that our chances of completion were good as long as we avoided moving out of state, getting a full-time job, or starting a family. I’m amused that each of us ended up committing two out of three of these acts while ABD, and proud that we both have managed to earn our degrees nonetheless. I thank Judy and Lee Weiner for their assistance as I gathered data. Thanks also to Georgia Shaw, the much-needed third grownup of our household. I wish her all the best as she begins her own graduate work. I also owe thanks to my mother, for both professional and personal reasons. Both my mother and father have always encouraged my curiosity and learning, not just in classrooms but everywhere. My mother was my original native informant of the Heights (which is why she remains nameless here). Her knowledge of the locals helped me get the snowball rolling in the first place. And then, once I became a mother myself, she cared for baby Abigail v every day so I was free to work -- and is now encouraging Abigail’s own curiosity. She has performed an immeasurable service of generosity, and I am indebted. I thank all of the members of my complicated, extended family for providing encouragement for this work. For example, I’m grateful to my in-laws who were always understanding when I used time during visits together to get away to work (or sometimes to rest). And I am most grateful to my children: Abigail, who kicked inside my belly as I analyzed data; and her younger sibling, who kicks in my belly even now as I write. They serve as healthy and welcome reminders that earning a Ph.D. is not the most important thing in my life. And of course, my partner in parenthood -- and so much more -- is my husband Jesse, to whom this work is dedicated. Dissertations strike me as a marital trial as well as an academic trial. Jesse has held up so well, even when I prioritized the dissertation over domestic responsibility, and even as he watched one semester after another in which “I hope to defend” fall by the wayside. I am grateful to him for giving me the time and space I needed to achieve this longstanding goal. More generally, I appreciate and love Jesse for who he is, and for who he encourages me to be. I have a very good life, and he is the main reason why. In the way he lives, and in his encouragement to me, Jesse helps me remember to “Watch the doughnut, not the hole.” vi Table of Contents Page LIST OF TABLES ix 1.

    SWS 2020 Virtual Summer Meeting Special thanks to the Program Committee! 2020 Summer Meeting Program Committee: Marybeth Stalp, Chair, Josephine Beoku-Betts, President, Sasha Drummond-Lewis, Solange Simões, Barret Katuna, Executive Officer Warm Greetings to all SWSers and Welcome to the 2020 SWS Summer Virtual Meeting! It has been an exhilarating if somewhat challenging experience, preparing for our first SWS Virtual Summer Meeting. We had an excellent Program Committee and were able to turn lemons into lemonade as we navigated the realities of COVID-19. While we were still committed to hosting a summer meeting, we had to learn the ropes as we proceeded. Of course, “the proof of the pudding is in the eating” and we promise you a satisfying experience. I hope that you are all looking forward to the meeting as much as I am. Planning a meeting at the best of times is not easy work and takes a lot of staff and volunteer time and effort. We could not have asked for a better Program Committee to help put everything together and I appreciate their dedication and support throughout the planning process. I’d like to thank Marybeth Stalp, Chair of the Program Committee, as well as Solange Simões (International Committee), Sasha Drummond-Lewis (Sister to Sister), Barret Katuna (SWS EO), Natasha Santana (Assistant to the EO), and Christelle Lachapelle (Web Support Specialist). Although this is a virtual meeting and we will not be meeting in a particular space of land, it is important that we acknowledge that the land on which each of us reside as we participate in critical and pressing dialogues is the traditional territory of indigenous nations, whose territories extend across the recent nation-state territorial borders referred to as the United States of America and Mexico.

Each of the three elements from the title “Comparative Perspectives, Competing Explanations” is designed to produce a fruitful meeting frame: First, the notion of “comparative perspectives” is itself “accordion-like” and can fit a number of purposes and goals. There is the international aspect, so that we can incorporate a comparison of American sociology with international developments. There is the internal evolution of perspectives inside of the United States, which would include the development and emergence of challenging and oppositional perspectives in the discipline, from the Society for the Study of Social Problems, to Sociologists for Women in Society, to the Association of Black Sociologists, to name but a few organizational manifestations of the challenges of the last half century. There are others that will surely surface from the general call. Second, there is the notion of “competing explanations.” Competing explanations

Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarity with a wide spectrum of feminist periodicals; andto provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.) Table of contents pages from current issues of major feminist journals are reproduced in each issue of Feminist periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As publication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP.
