  • The Logic and Limits of Solidarity, 1850S–1920S
    CHAPTER ONE The Logic and Limits of Solidarity, 1850s±1920s FEW OCCUPATIONAL GROUPS better illustrate the unevenness of work- ing-class consciousness and the complexities of ethnic and racial con- ¯ict and accommodation in the United States than the men who la- bored ªalong shore,º loading and unloading ships. The longshoremen were classically proletarian. They worked with their hands, developed a muscular workplace culture, and were rooted in dense communal networks that merged class, ethnic, and racial identities. They orga- nized unions as early as the 1840s and engaged in strikes that paralyzed the economic life of major metropolitan areas. They were at once insu- lar and cosmopolitanÐre¯ecting the relatively self-contained mores of their neighborhoods and yet linked by their work to a wider world of commerce and culture, intensely local in their allegiances but willing to turn for leadership to Communists, syndicalists, and other critics of capitalism. In the nineteenth century, immigrants from Ireland and Germany competed for employment on the docks with northern free blacks and southern slaves. In the early twentieth century, new immigrants from southern and eastern Europe entered the labor market in large numbers and changed the face of the waterfront. The embattled Irish succeeded in maintaining several major enclaves. Blacks were driven from the docks in some cities but predominated in others. Mexicans gradually created a niche for themselves on the Texas Gulf Coast and in the booming port of Los Angeles. Along with ªswarthyº Italians, they com- plicated the question of race by creating a sizable intermediate stratum of people who were not ªblackº but not yet ªwhiteº either.

    Applied Cognitive Psychology, Appl. Cognit. Psychol. (2016) Published online in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com) DOI: 10.1002/acp.3213 Uncovering Uncertainty through Disagreement SUSANNAH B. F. PALETZ1*, JOEL CHAN2 and CHRISTIAN D. SCHUNN3 1Center for Advanced Study of Language, University of Maryland, College Park, College Park, USA 2Human–Computer Interaction Institute, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, USA 3Learning Research and Development Center, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, USA Summary: This study explored the association between different types of brief disagreements and subsequent levels of expressed psychological uncertainty, a fundamental cognitive aspect of complex problem solving. We examined 11 hours (11 861 utterances) of conversations in expert science teams, sampled across the first 90 days of the Mars Exploration Rover mission. Utterances were independently coded for micro-conflicts and expressed psychological uncertainty. Using time-lagged hierarchical linear modeling applied to blocks of 25 utterances, we found that micro-conflicts regarding rover planning were followed by greater uncertainty. Brief disagreements about science issues were followed by an increase in expressed uncertainty early in the mission. Examining the potential reverse temporal association, uncertainty actually predicted fewer subsequent disagreements, ruling out indirect, third variable associations of conflict and uncertainty. Overall, these findings suggest that some forms of disagreement may serve to uncover important areas of uncertainty in complex teamwork, perhaps via revealing differences in mental models.Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. INTRODUCTION Uncertainty The most important scientific and technological advances are Research in cognitive psychology has revealed that uncer- tainty is a central aspect of complex problem solving (for a increasingly being produced by teams (Jones, 2009; Singh & Fleming, 2009; Wuchty, Jones, & Uzzi, 2007).
