Tanggal xi xii ABSTRAK Tesis ini menganalisa interelasi stratifikasi sosial dan agama dalam masyarakat. Stratifikasi sosial dianggap sebagai faktor yang menentukan kecenderungan-kecenderungan keagamaan dan orientasinya. Semakin tinggi hierarki strata suatu masyarakat maka akan semakin rasional pola kepercayaannya. Tesis ini menolak pendapat Karl Marx, C. Wright Mills dan Gerhard E. Lenski, Ali Syari’ati (1982), Robert MZ Lawang (2004) yang menyatakan bahwa stratifikasi sosial dalam masyarakat ditentukan oleh kriteria objektif yang berhubungan dengan kesempatan hidup dalam indikator ekonomi dengan penekanan terhadap aspek kekuasaan sebagai determinan stratifikasi sosial. Tesis ini mendukung pendapat Max Weber, Keith A.Roberts (2004), James D. Davidson dan Ralph E. Pyle (2011) yang menyatakan bahwa ada hubungan antara keadaan sosial ekonomi dan ketaatan beragama. Agama mempengaruhi dan dipengaruhi oleh sistem stratifikasi. Berdasarkan dukungan asumsi teori religious stratification, tesis ini akan menganalisa fenomena kekeramatan makam di kota Palembang di mana masyarakat (peziarah) memiliki pola kepercayaan yang berbeda-beda berdasarkan stratanya sehingga terdapat interelasi antara stratifikasi sosial dengan pola kepercayaan masyarakat terhadap kekeramatan makam. Sumber data primer dalam penelitian ini adalah data lapangan berupa observasi dan wawancara mendalam sedangkan data sekundernya berupa literatur buku, jurnal maupun artikel yang berhubungan dengan pembahasan stratifikasi sosial dan pola kepercayaan. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode kualitatif yang bersifat deskriptif dengan pendekatan fenomenologis dan etnografis.

    Shades of Intolerance: The Influence of Terrorism on Discriminatory Attitudes and Behaviors in the United Kingdom and Canada. by Chuck Baker A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Global Affairs Written under the direction of Dr. Gregg Van Ryzin and approved by ___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ Newark, New Jersey May, 2015 Copyright page: © 2015 Chuck Baker All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The Influence of Terrorism on Discriminatory Attitudes and Behaviors in the United Kingdom and Canada by Chuck Baker Dissertation Director: Dr. Gregg Van Ryzin, Ph.D. Terrorism has been shown to have a destabilizing impact upon the citizens of the nation- state in which it occurs, causing social distress, fear, and the desire for retribution (Cesari, 2010; Chebel d’Appollonia, 2012). Much of the recent work on 21st century terrorism carried out in the global north has placed the focus on terrorism being perpetuated by Middle East Muslims. In addition, recent migration trends show that the global north is becoming much more diverse as the highly populated global south migrates upward. Population growth in the global north is primarily due to increases in the minority presence, and these post-1960 changes have increased the diversity of historically more homogeneous nations like the United Kingdom and Canada. This research examines the influence of terrorism on discriminatory attitudes and behaviors, with a focus on the United Kingdom in the aftermath of the July 7, 2005 terrorist attacks in London.

Religious Inequality in America Abstract Sociology has largely ignored class differences between American religious groups under the assumption that those differences “are smaller than they used to be and are getting smaller all of the time” (Pyle & Davidson, 2014, p. 195). This article demonstrates that profound class differences remain amongst American religious groups. These differences are as large as—or larger than—commonly examined forms of inequality such as the gender pay gap and the race achievement gap. Using the most popular categorization of American religious groups, we find that egarr dless of the particular measure examined (years of education, income, socioeconomic index score, and proportion of members with at least a bachelor’s degree) Jews and Mainline Protestants are at the top of the socioeconomic ladder and Evangelical Protestants, both black and white, are at the bottom. Furthermore, religious group significantly predicts both years of education and the overall socioeconomic standing of respondents by itself with basic controls. Likewise, both socioeconomic indicators and education significantly predict the likelihood of being in a specific eligiousr tradition on their own with basic controls.

Editorial: "Complex Religion: Intersections of Religion and Inequality" Abstract What is complex religion and how does it relate to social inclusion? Complex religion is a theory which posits that religion intersects with inequality, especially class, race, ethnicity and gender. The nine articles in this volume examine a wide array of ways that religion intersects with inequality, and how, as a result, it can create barriers to social inclusion. The issue begins with three articles that examine the role of religion and its intersection with race and racialization processes. It then moves to three articles that examine religion’s intersection with socioeconomic inequality. The issue closes with three studies of how religion’s relationship with the state creates and maintains various status hierarchies, even as some religious movements seek to combat inequality. Together, these articles enrichen our understanding of the complex task before anyone seeking to think about the role of religion in social inclusion.

Keister" Duke University Religion is an important determinant of social and economic attainment, but the mechanisms that underlie this relationship are not well understood. Early scholars recognized this connection, but their ideas do not ade­ quately explain contemporary stratification patterns. Recent research doc­ uments robust empirical relationships between religion and material outcomes but has not yet begun to identify causes of these patterns. I fill this gap by providing a comprehensive, contemporary, theoretical expla­ nation of the religion-inequality link that synthesizes ideas from early and more recent research. I draw on ideas from status attainment and life course research to develop a synthetic model that includes religion as both a background and a mediating component. I conclude by providing exam­ ples of implications of the model. These ideas improve understanding of the critical relationship between cultural orientation and material resources. Religion plays an important role in creating and maintaining social and economic inequality, but the mechanisms driving this relationship are not well understood.

Despite growing descriptive evidence of discrimination against minority religious groups and atheists in the United States, little experimental work exists studying whether indi- viduals face differential barriers to receiving public services depending on their religious affiliation. Here we report results from a large-scale audit study of street-level bureaucrats in the American public school system. We emailed the principals of more than 45,000 public schools and asked for a meeting, randomly assigning the religious affiliation/non-affiliation of the family. To get at potential mechanisms, we also randomly assigned belief intensity. We find evidence of substantial discrimination against Muslims and atheists. These indi- viduals are substantially less likely to receive a response, with discrimination growing when they signal that their beliefs are more intense.
