After such a useful introduction to evaluation one won- ders why he didn't provide more examples of effective, feasible evaluation designs.

  • The Revival of Economic Sociology
    Chapter 1 The Revival of Economic Sociology MAURO F. G UILLEN´ , RANDALL COLLINS, PAULA ENGLAND, AND MARSHALL MEYER conomic sociology is staging a comeback after decades of rela- tive obscurity. Many of the issues explored by scholars today E mirror the original concerns of the discipline: sociology emerged in the first place as a science geared toward providing an institutionally informed and culturally rich understanding of eco- nomic life. Confronted with the profound social transformations of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the founders of so- ciological thought—Karl Marx, Emile Durkheim, Max Weber, Georg Simmel—explored the relationship between the economy and the larger society (Swedberg and Granovetter 1992). They examined the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services through the lenses of domination and power, solidarity and inequal- ity, structure and agency, and ideology and culture. The classics thus planted the seeds for the systematic study of social classes, gender, race, complex organizations, work and occupations, economic devel- opment, and culture as part of a unified sociological approach to eco- nomic life. Subsequent theoretical developments led scholars away from this originally unified approach. In the 1930s, Talcott Parsons rein- terpreted the classical heritage of economic sociology, clearly distin- guishing between economics (focused on the means of economic ac- tion, or what he called “the adaptive subsystem”) and sociology (focused on the value orientations underpinning economic action). Thus, sociologists were theoretically discouraged from participating 1 2 The New Economic Sociology in the economics-sociology dialogue—an exchange that, in any case, was not sought by economists. It was only when Parsons’s theory was challenged by the reality of the contentious 1960s (specifically, its emphasis on value consensus and system equilibration; see Granovet- ter 1990, and Zelizer, ch.

In 1990, 37 percent of all union members in the U.S. were women -- a record high. Equally significant, and in sharp contrast to the situation earlier in this century, today women of color are more likely than their white sisters to be unionized.' And in a break with its long history of marginalizing women's concerns, the labor movement has embraced some major feminist issues in recent years, such as comparable worth and parental leave. Despite these gains, however, thanks to the general decline of unionism, only a small minority of the nation's workforce (a mere 13 percent of employed women, and 16 percent of all employed workers) are organized, and the short-run prospects for labor's renewal seem bleak. Feminist scholars have shown limited interest in the situation of women in the contemporary labor movement.2 But despite the current crisis of unionism, research on women's labor history -- a field that barely existed twenty years ago -- has burgeoned.

  • 1 from the Birth of the Modern World to the Age of Limits
    Notes 1 From the Birth of the Modern World to the Age of Limits 1. This school of thought has been labelled the ‘California school’, see Goldstone (2006: 272–3). 2. Osterhammel’s 19th century in fact reaches further back in time as well as beyond the First World War in certain respects. 3. It is not possible to date this period more accurately than the 1970s and 1980s since a longer-term economic downturn began in the 1970s but the end of the Cold War was only confirmed as a political break in the late 1980s. As we shall see in the concluding chapter, economies and political change – and the transformation of nature – all have different time horizons. Still, these breaks will become clearer with time. 4. This dependence on innovation is also implicit in ideas about ‘post-indus- trial society’, which depends on information and communication technolo- gies as ‘prime movers’ for moving into a service- or knowledge-intensive society. 5. As Mann (1993: 26) has argued, only classes with organizational capabilities for change are of interest. 6. It can also be noted that although consumerism relies on technoscience or innovation – the first component of culture – this connection is at one remove: consumption rests on the transformation of the natural world, but consumer goods are exchanged via markets. This indirectness, that consumer- ism is driven by and drives economic forces, rather than being intrinsically linked to technoscience, is important for its ‘dispensability’. 7. Weber sometimes used ‘spheres’ and at other times ‘social orders’. The sub- title of the German original of Max Weber’s Economy and Society (1978) was ‘The Economy and the Social Orders and Powers [die Gesellschaftlichen Ordnungen und Maechte], but in his essay ‘Religious Rejections of the World and their Directions’ (1948: 323–359), he used ‘spheres’.

The point, however, is to change it.” – Karl Marx That is the point, it’s true—but not in this course. This quote, indirectly, hints at a deep tension in Marxism. If we want to change the world we need to understand it. But the desire to change something can infect our understanding of it. This is a pervasive dynamic in the history of Marxism and the first step is to admit there is a problem. This means acknowledging the presence of wishful thinking, without letting it induce paralysis. On the other hand, if there are pitfalls in being upfront in your desire to change the world there are also virtues. The normative 1 goal of social change helps to avoid common trappings of academia, in particular, the laser focus on irrelevant questions. Plus, in having a set of value commitments, stated clearly, you avoid the false pretense that values don’t enter in the backdoor in social science, which they often do if you’re paying attention. With this caveat in place, Marxian social science really does have a lot to offer in understanding the world and that’s what we’ll analyze in this course. The goal is to look at the different hypotheses that broadly emerge out of the Marxian tradition and see the extent to which they can be supported both theoretically and empirically.
