Sociology Of Debt: States, Credit Markets, And Indebted Citizens, Basak Kus
Sociology Of Debt: States, Credit Markets, And Indebted Citizens, Basak Kus
BASAK KUS
Within the context of the recent financial crisis, the causes and implications of mounting levels of household indebtedness have begun to be examined from a variety of angles: Why have nations differed so drastically, historically speaking, in terms of the level of debt that their citizens carry? Why have patterns converged over the past few decades, with levels of indebtedness increasing across the board? This paper considers these questions from a sociological perspective. I first consider the role of political, institutional, economic, and cultural factors, as well as individual characteristics, in shaping the demand for and supply of credit and …

The Impact Of Social Capital On The Access, Adjustment, And Success Of Southeast Asian American College Students., Robert T. Palmer, Phd, Dina C. Maramba, Phd
The Impact Of Social Capital On The Access, Adjustment, And Success Of Southeast Asian American College Students., Robert T. Palmer, Phd, Dina C. Maramba, Phd
Robert T. Palmer, PhD
Given that Southeast Asian American (SEAA) students are severely underrepresented in higher education and less likely to persistence to graduation compared to other ethnic groups in the Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) community, this study explored critical factors to their college success. Indeed, several themes emerged from this national sample of 34 participants from five public, four year colleges and universities. In this present article, we discuss one of the salient themes—the role of social capital as facilitators of college access and success. This article concludes with implications for research and practice.

Examining The Prevalence Of Poor Help-Seeking Behavior Among Black Men At Historically Black Colleges And Universities, Robert T. Palmer
Examining The Prevalence Of Poor Help-Seeking Behavior Among Black Men At Historically Black Colleges And Universities, Robert T. Palmer
Robert T. Palmer, PhD
Scholars have emphasized the importance of being more intentional about investigating the experiences of Black men at historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs). This article responds to that call by examining poor help-seeking behavior, which could be symptomatic of an unhealthy masculine identity, among Black men at HBCUs. This study was prompted by a single, institutional study, which found evidence of poor help-seeking behavior among Black men at an HBCU. Using data from the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), this article seeks to understand the prevalence of poor help-seeking behavior among Black males in HBCUs. This article concludes with …

Pathological Frame And Functional Convenience Of Tuberculosis In Cambodia; Looking Beyond Detection And Treatment., Edson Kieu
Edson Kieu
Treatment for endemic diseases such as tuberculosis exists but these diseases continue to disproportionately plague those living in poverty. Tuberculosis is a complex public health issue and is a major challenge that defies pragmatic and instrumental treatment methods of detection and treatment. Currently, the causation of the disease is predominantly framed as a medical problem, which systematically excludes social variants, which narrows our understanding of treatment methodologies. By employing actor-network theory as a comprehensive scope for analysing interactions across varying stakeholders, I argue that there is vital need to view diseases as manifestations of social dysfunctions. Public health networks and …

Capitalizing On Distinctiveness: Creating Wv For A New Economy, Brian A. Hoey
Brian A. Hoey, Ph.D.
This article explores use of images and ideas of place to promote particular social and economic agendas within the regional context of Appalachia. Despite prevailing imageries of backwardness and isolation that adhere to the region, as well as recent history of often-bleak economic conditions, communities such as Huntington, West Virginia, are ideal places to observe inventive forms of community-building, place-making, and place-marketing that borrow from emerging cultural and economic models and stand in sharp contrast to a once dominant paradigm that encouraged capital investment by relying simply on tax breaks and the provision of cheap land and labor to attract …

Immersion Ethnography Of Elites, Elisabeth Brooke Harrington
Brooke Harrington
This chapter considers the practice of "immersion ethnography" in terms of its contributions to knowledge, as well as its demands and its history as a methodology within social science. Four recent books are examined as illustrations of the technique: Mears' (2011) "Pricing Beauty," Ho's (2009) "Liquidated," Khan's (2011) "Privilege," and Zaloom's (2006) "Out of the Pits."
Going Global: Professions And The Micro-Foundations Of Institutional Change, Elisabeth Brooke Harrington
Going Global: Professions And The Micro-Foundations Of Institutional Change, Elisabeth Brooke Harrington
Brooke Harrington
This study links theories of relationality and institutional change to deepen understanding of professionals’ role in globalization. In previous institutional research, it has been conventional to treat professionals as agents of firms or transnational organizations, and institutional change as the result of planned, strategic ‘professional projects’. By bringing a relational analysis to bear on the problem of institutional change, this study reasserts the theoretical significance of individual agency and everyday interactions between professionals and their clients, peers, and organizational environment. It also broadens the model of agency to include invention and improvisation by individual professionals, as a counterpart to collective …
