NORC’s AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO clients include government agencies, educational institutions, foun- A national organization for dations, other nonprofit organizations, and private corporations. research and computing Although NORC’s national studies are the best known, our projects range across local, regional, and international perspectives as well. NORC creates unique value for its clients by developing effective, innovative solutions at the nexus of information technology and 2005 public interest research. Established in 1941, NORC was the first not-for-profit research firm created to pursue objective research ANNUAL REPORT that served a broadly conceived public interest. NORC has since emerged as an organization on the cutting edge of data collec- tion, management, and analysis technologies. Building on a cor- CONTENTS porate history of over sixty years of conducting objective research in the public interest, today NORC delivers focused research and 2 information technology solutions in support of social research. Letter from the Chairman and President NORC offers a full range of information technology, data collec- 5 tion, and analytic capabilities delivered in an integrated manner. Project Highlights NORC information technology capability includes applications 17 development; database development and warehousing; and pro- Major Issue Areas ject management, systems analysis, and quality control assurance. NORC data collection resources include questionnaire design and 28 survey methodology; telephone, in-person, and Internet data col- Survey Operations lection and data preparation; and world leadership in sample 31 design and weighting. NORC analysis capability includes a wide Academic Research Centers and range of both quantitative and qualitative techniques. Our long- University of Chicago Affiliation standing affiliation with the University of Chicago provides privi- leged access to the University’s world-renowned faculty. 36 Selected Clients NORC’s project work is done in an interdisciplinary framework, 37 with strong staff cooperation across substantive areas. NORC is an Selected Publications and equal opportunity employer committed to facilitating the person- Presentations al and professional development of everyone on our staff. Letter from the Chairman and President e are pleased to record 2005 as a year of significant accomplish- Wments at NORC. We continued important research collaborations with faculty at the University of Chicago, we launched significant new projects on very tight schedules, we implemented impor- tant advances in data collection technolo- gy, we brought significant new senior Edward O. Laumann, Craig G. Coelen, Chairman President researchers to our firm, we achieved high levels of survey productivity, and we achieved strong financial performance. In short, we made solid progress toward all of our long-term organizational goals. Throughout this report are examples of the application of new tools and technology in the exe- cution of complex data collection projects. In some cases, the tools were developed to meet the needs of a specific project – for example, a specialized “two-point discriminator” designed and fabricated for the National Social Life, Health, and Aging Project to measure the tactile (touch) sensitivity of older adults. In other cases, existing technology was adapted for special use – for example, use of Global Positioning System (GPS) devices, cell phones, and mapping software to aid in locating rural addresses and the use of lightweight scanners by field interviewers to cap- ture data from household utility bills for the Residential Energy Consumption Survey. Among the most important developments at NORC in the past year was our successful recruitment of new senior research and administrative staff. Among the important additions are: • Mary Jo Ardizzone – Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Previously Mary Jo served as CFO at Environmental Systems Design and as corporate controller at Skidmore, Owings, Merrill. • Dan Black – Principal Investigator, 1997 Cohort of the National Longitudinal Study of Youth and senior fellow, Economics, Labor, and Population Studies Department. At Syracuse University, Dan served as Trustee Professor and for a time as Chair of the Economics Department and as Senior Research Associate at Syracuse’s Center for Policy Research. • Henry Brownstein – Senior Vice President and Director of the Substance Abuse, Mental Health, and Criminal Justice Department. He previously served as Director of the Center on Crime, Drugs, and Justice at Abt Associates and as Director of Drugs, Crime and Crime Research at the National Institute of Justice. • Julia Lane – Senior Vice President and Director, Economics, Labor, and Population Studies Department. Julia previously held senior research positions at the National Science Foundation, the Census Bureau, and the Urban Institute and was the architect and driving force behind the Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics Project for Census. • Michael O’Grady – Senior Fellow in the Health Survey, Program, and Policy Research department and for the prior several years Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation at the Department of Health and Human Services. We have doubled in size in the last four years and have grown by 50 percent in the last two years. This growth has made organizational change a necessity. 2 In April 2005 NORC established an International Projects Department and recruited Jeff Telgarsky as Senior Vice President and founding director of the group. Jeff served for the previ- ous twelve years as director of the International Activities Center at the Urban Institute. During its first year, the new department took over the administration of our large project in Qatar, sup- porting that country’s expanding program of education reform. The department also provided methodological advice to the UK Department of Culture, Media, and Sport on the effectiveness of screening questions to identify problem gamblers. And NORC became lead in a consortium of organizations, including the Urban Institute and RAND, selected to carry out impact evalua- tions of the Millennium Challenge Corporation’s overseas development programs. The work will assess project contributions to economic growth, job creation, and household incomes, and to help guide the design of future programs. Planned in late 2005 and implemented in early 2006, NORC’s Health, Survey, Program, and Policy Research (HSPPR) Department, which had grown very rapidly in the last few years, was reorganized into three new departments. Dan Gaylin, previously HSPPR’s Senior Vice President and Director, became Executive Vice President for Health Research, and will oversee the newly formed departments: • Health Policy and Evaluation, led by Marc Berk, Senior Vice President and Director. • Public Health and Epidemiology, headed by Missy Koppelman, Senior Vice President and Director. • Health Care Delivery

    “Introduction: The Past and Future of Ego-Centric Network Analysis” Mario L. Small, Bernice Pescosolido, Brea L. Perry, Edward (Ned) Smith Draft October 2020 Forthcoming, in Personal Networks Classic Readings and New Directions in Ego-centric Analysis, edited by Mario L. Small, Brea L. Perry, Bernice Pescosolido, and Edward (Ned) Smith Network analysis is ubiquitous. In recent years, it has shaped how researchers and society as a whole understand issues as diverse as the spread of disease, the precursors of loneliness, the rise of protest movements, the causes of social inequality, the flows of air traffic, the rise of social media, and much more (Wasserman and Faust 1994; Barabasi 2002; Christakis and Fowler 2009; Watts and Strogatz 1998; Watts 1999).1 This influence is due to the remarkable flexibility and power of network analysis. A network is simply a set of nodes and the ties between them, and a node can be anything—an individual, an organization, a website, a computer server, an airport, a nation, or any entity with the capacity to connect in any fashion to another entity. The ability to think of any relationship in network terms has proved remarkably generative for researchers. Social scientists have traditionally conducted network studies in one of two ways (see Wasserman and Faust 1994; Kadushin 2012; Borgatti, Everett, and Johnson 2013; Crossley et al. 2015; Perry, Pescosolido, and Borgatti 2018; McCarty et al. 2019). Those adopting a sociocentric perspective examine a set of actors and all realized or potential ties between them; those adopting an egocentric one, a set of actors and their relations of any type that is of interest to the researcher.

  • Dominance Relations and the Social Structure of Gang Homicide1
    Murder by Structure: Dominance Relations and the Social Structure of Gang Homicide1 Andrew V. Papachristos University of Massachusetts, Amherst Most sociological theories consider murder an outcome of the dif- ferential distribution of individual, neighborhood, or social char- acteristics. And while such studies explain variation in aggregate homicide rates, they do not explain the social order of murder, that is, who kills whom, when, where, and for what reason. This article argues that gang murder is best understood not by searching for its individual determinants but by examining the social networks of action and reaction that create it. In short, the social structure of gang murder is defined by the manner in which social networks are constructed and by people’s placement in them. The author uses a network approach and incident-level homicide records to recreate and analyze the structure of gang murders in Chicago. Findings demonstrate that individual murders between gangs create an in- stitutionalized network of group conflict, net of any individual’s participation or motive. Within this network, murders spread through an epidemic-like process of social contagion as gangs eval- uate the highly visible actions of others in their local networks and negotiate dominance considerations that arise during violent incidents. INTRODUCTION Most sociological theories of murder seek general “laws” or social “causes” and rely heavily on heterogeneity or stratification as the main correlates 1 Of the many people who provided feedback on this project, I would like to especially thank Mark Mizruchi, Tracey Meares, Jeff Fagan, Richard Taub, James Short, Damon Phillips, Ron Burt, John Padgett, Edward Laumann, Robert Sampson, Jason Beckfield, David Kirk, Andrea Leverentz, Don Tomaskovic-Devey, Emily Erikson, and the AJS reviewers for their extensive comments.

In philosophy and social anthropology it is assumed that in humans lack of natural instincts has always led to social depend- ence and thus has constructed social networks.2 Accordingly, from the moment of birth the human relies on a social environment to sat- isfy his basic needs and to learn the cultural codes (for example, lan- guage, behaviour, norms and values). This is the only way that he can integrate into society and become capable of survival. The signif- icance of networks for actors, the effects they bring about and similar issues are the focal point of so-called ‘relational science’ that has developed since the late nineteenth century.

  • Sociology of Law
    This page intentionally left blank Sociology of Law Since the classic contributions of Weber and Durkheim, the sociology of law has raised key questions on the place of law in society. Drawing together both theoretical and empirical themes, Mathieu Deflem reviews the field’s major accomplishments and reveals the value of the multiple ways in which sociologists study the social structures and processes of law. He discusses both historical and contemporary issues, from early theoretical foundations and the work of Weber and Durkheim, through the contribution of sociological jurisprudence, to the development of modern perspectives to clarify how sociologists study law. Chapters also look at the role of law in relation to the economy, politics, culture, and the legal profession; and aspects of law enforcement and the globalization of law. This book will appeal to scholars and students of the sociology of law, jurisprudence, social and political theory, and social and political philosophy. mathieu deflem is Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of South Carolina. He has published dozens of articles in journals and books, is the author of Policing World Society (2002) and the editor of Sociologists in a Global Age (2007), Sociological Theory and Criminological Research (2006), Terrorism and Counter- Terrorism (2004) and Habermas, Modernity and Law (1996).
