produce consequences at more local levels? • What paradoxes of
inequality do you see? Following brief presentations by the panelists,
audience members will be invited to work in small groups to consider
whether there are there fundamental, generic processes that produce
and reproduce inequality regardless of the type of inequality at issue
(and, if so, what they are) or whether it all “just depends” (and, if so, on
what). Small groups will have an opportunity to share their
conversations with the larger group throughout the session. Panelists
will close the session by reflecting on the groups’ comments and the
challenges and opportunities they suggest for fresh insight into the
nature of inequality and the processes that support it.

Sociology of Education Editorial Board --
How do the fatherhood premium and the motherhood penalty sort
out among co-residental couples? Is her pain his gain? And what
demographic groups are the winners and losers once the household
math is done (premium minus penalty). What about for America’s most
vulnerable mothers and fathers, who generally give birth outside of
marriage and raise their children while living apart? What policy
implications flow from what we know? And how do we implement
them, given the political landscape today? How do teens growing up in
disadvantaged circumstances, both boys and girls, perceive the price of
parenthood before they have a child—what do they think the stakes of
early fertility are? This session addresses each question with fresh
data and new ideas.

Sociology offers many different conceptualizations of the processes
that create and maintain inequality. This interactive session features
panelists from different intellectual traditions who will discuss the
challenges and opportunities of reaching across intellectual divides to
understand how inequality is produced and reproduced across different
structures, contexts, and situations. Three questions will guide the
panelists’ remarks: • How do you conceptualize inequality? • How do
national and international inequalities in political and economic power

“The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor
to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.” This
provocative quotation by Anatole France remains prescient and frames
the sociology of law. In this panel we examine multiple ways in legal
practices resist or reproduce the forces of social inequality.

The Final Frontier? Same-Sex Marriage and the Future
of the LGBT Movement. Mary Bernstein, University
of Connecticut; Nancy A. Naples, University of
Connecticut
Attitudes toward gays and lesbians have changed so much over
the past decade that more than half of Americans think that being gay
is morally acceptable and that gay and lesbian couples should have the
right to legally marry. Same-sex marriage, nevertheless, remains one of
the most contentious issues in American society and is illegal in most
states. The papers in this session will examine the debate over samesex marriage among the general public, as well as among gay and
lesbian activists who remain divided over the issue, concentrating on
the U.S., Scandinavia, and Australia. The session will consider the
impact of social movements, activists, and academic experts on shifts
in public opinion, the law, and public policy pertaining to same-sex
marriage.

Discussant: Philip Kasinitz, City University of New YorkGraduate Center
A city like New York must be able to implement mega projects. This
session looks at the many issues surrounding mega projects in New
York. These include which new ones do we most need right now and
how can we get them built, what are the obstacles that often make
mega projects hard to pull off, which recently achieved mega projects
are the best and how, if at all, should they be improved. We define a
“mega project,” as “a very big project in the context of where it is being
planned or built, and with a significant public component (via e.g.
financing, or authority such as zoning).”
142. Professional Development Workshop.
Flourishing in a Liminal Zone: Career Advice for
Adjuncts
Session Organizer: Andrea D. Miller, Webster University
Leader: Andrea D. Miller, Webster University
Panelists: Marisa Camille Allison, George Mason
University
Rebecca Bach, Duke University
Suzanne B. Maurer,
According to a 2012 report published by The Chronicle of Higher
Education, over two-thirds of college faculty hold adjunct, temporary or
contingent, non-tenure track positions. Moreover, the American
Association of University Professors reminds us that when graduate
students are included in the numbers, the ratio of contingent to full-time
faculty becomes even more marked. Sociology is no exception to
these trends. This workshop provides attendees with the opportunity to
find solution-oriented strategies to help navigate the ever-increasing
numbers of contingent faculty on university campuses. Participants will
speak about their own strategies as well as successful attempts to
unionize contingent faculty. All of the participants are currently in
contingent, non-tenured, or adjunct positions at a variety of universities.
Attendees at this workshop can expect to share their own experiences
while also learning strategies to navigate this ever-evolving landscape.
143. Policy and Research Workshop. Status of the
Job Market for New PhDs
Session Organizer: Roberta M. Spalter-Roth, American
Sociological Association
Leader: Roberta M. Spalter-Roth, American Sociological
Association
As with other professional associations we are concerned about the
future of our discipline and profession. If there are no jobs for new
PhDs the discipline will not renew itself and ultimately its perspectives,
understandings and modes of analyses will fade or be usurped by other
disciplines. The purpose of this workshop is to provide information
about the status of the job market to faculty members, to director’s of
graduate studies, and to recent PhDs or to PhD candidates who are
concerned about their futures. We’ll present the findings from the 2012
survey of 2011-2012 jobs. We’ll provide information about the prime
time for hiring, the most advertised specialties, type of departments in
which jobs are located, and other disciplines advertising for
sociologists. Along with these issues, workshop participants can
discuss job search strategies that improve competitiveness; views of
applied, policy, and research positions; and what additional information
would be useful to candidates.

173. Presidential Panel. Grappling with Inequality:
What Economics, Psychology, Political Science,
and Sociology have to Say about Rising
Inequality in the United States
Session Organizer: Devah Pager, Princeton University
Presider: Devah Pager, Princeton University
Panelists: Susan T. Fiske, Princeton University
Lawrence Katz, Harvard University
Larry Bartels, Vanderbilt University
Erik Olin Wright, University of Wisconsin-Madison
This panel aims to interrogate what social science can teach us
about rising inequality in the United States. The panel will feature the
perspectives of prominent representatives from each of the social
sciences whose work has shaped the debate on these important
questions. Why have those at the top of the distribution secured such
an unequal share of economic growth? What role do politics play in
shaping patterns of inequality? Do the poor or working class have any
voice in contemporary debates about inequality? In what ways do the
microdyanmics of class play out in interactions, attributions, and
affinities? In dialogue with one another, the representatives of these
four disciplines will grapple with these questions and shed light on the
diverse but intersecting perspectives of their fields.
174. Thematic Session. Overwork and Underwork:
Inequalities and Availability of Work
Session Organizer: Kathleen Gerson, New York
University
Presider: Philip N. Cohen, University of MarylandCollege Park
Panelists: Janet Gornick, City University of New YorkGraduate Center
Jerry A. Jacobs, University of Pennsylvania
Joya Misra, University of Massachusetts-Amherst
Discussant: Philip N. Cohen, University of MarylandCollege Park
The growing divide between overly-demanding jobs for some and a
lack of job opportunities for others has created new forms of inequality
as well as increasing conflicts between work and private life. These
important social shifts have also generated a range of vibrant threads in
an expanding web of research on work and family issues. In this
session, we will focus on how changes in the availability, experience,
and rewards of paid and unpaid work are shaping – and reshaping –
inequality between men and women and conflicts between work and
family life in the U.S. and cross-nationally. The panel will examine the
economic, demographic, and cultural shifts that have changed the
nature of jobs and the boundaries between home and work; and it will
explore the policy implications for workers and their families.

Roberta M. Spalter-Roth, American Sociological

Deborah K. King, Dartmouth College
Do we still need to collect and analyze data on “race” and ethnicity
at the individual, institutional, national and global levels? On the tenyear anniversary of the 2003 ASA Statement on "The Importance of
Collecting Data and Doing Social Scientific Research on Race" we
reconvene a critical mass of the original members of ASA Taskforce to
reflect on the impact and relevance of the statement for the
interrogation of inequalities in our increasing diverse and complex local
and global contexts.
176. Thematic Session. Scientific Knowledge and the

Session Organizer: Ann J. Morning, New York University
Presider: Ann J. Morning, New York University
Panelists: Sheila Jasanoff, Harvard University

Dorothy Roberts, Northwestern University
Joan H. Fujimura, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Despite idealized images of science, it is no stranger to inequality.
Not only has scientific knowledge been wielded as a tool to introduce
and legitimize social stratification, it is itself the fruit of grossly unequal
societies. Science is intertwined with hierarchy in myriad domains,
including gender, race and ethnicity, sexuality, and class. Accordingly,
this panel brings together scholars with expertise in different disciplines
and different forms of stratification in order to identify and reflect on
some of the overarching ways in which scientific knowledge is linked to
the reproduction of inequality.
177. Thematic Session. Status Processes
Session Organizer: Ezra W. Zuckerman, Massachusetts
Institute of Technology
Presider: Ezra W. Zuckerman, Massachusetts Institute of
Technology
Panelists: Robb Willer, University of California-Berkeley
Freda B. Lynn, University of Iowa
Tak Wing Chan, University of Oxford
This panel brings together a diverse array of sociologists who are
at the frontier of research on status processes, especially as they relate
to the stability or instability of status hierarchies. The panel includes
historical sociologist who works on the dynamics of scandal (Adut); a
scholar who works at the intersection of stratification and cultural
consumption (Chan), a social network theorist (Lynn); and experimental
social psychologist (Willer). Each panelist will prepare a 12 minute
presentation that describes recent areas of progress and opportunities
for further advance in their work, and discusses potential points of
complementarity with work shared by the other panelists. After the
initial presentations, the discussant will endeavor to facilitate
discussion, so as to clarify links across the research areas and
opportunities for further progress.
178. Special Session. ASA Science Policy Session
Session Organizer: Brad Smith, American Sociological
Association
Presider: Brad Smith, American Sociological Association
Panelist: Howard J. Silver, COSSA
Over the last thirty years social science research has been subject
to a number of attacks from politicians. This session will examine those
attacks and give an update to the current situation on Capitol Hill. The
session will then investigate future opportunities for social science
research.
179. Departmental Management and Leadership
Workshop. Academic Program Prioritization and
Program Review - How to Prepare and Defend
Your Department
Session Organizer: Rebecca G. Adams, University of
North Carolina-Greensboro
Leader: Rebecca G. Adams, University of North
Carolina-Greensboro
At most colleges and universities, the programs in academic
departments are reviewed on a regular cycle, generally every five-toseven years. This workshop will be useful to departments anticipating
such a routine program review. This workshop will also be useful to
faculty of departments in colleges or universities where it is likely that
an institution-wide program prioritization process will be undertaken in
response to the current fiscal crisis in order to identify programs to be
discontinued, curtailed, combined with other programs, etc. The
workshop leader has had experience as an external evaluator for
routine departmental reviews, in overseeing the preparation of the
undergraduate component of a program review in the sociology
department at her own university, and in facilitating the development of
the process for a university-wide program review in her previous
position as Associate Provost for Planning and Assessment. Learning
outcomes for this workshop include: Be familiar with available
background resources for departmental reviews and academic program
prioritization, describe the trajectories of both types of reviews,
understand the forces provoking academic program prioritization, be
aware of criteria and data commonly used for both types of reviews,
know how to prepare your department for departmental review or
university-wide program prioritization, and understand program review
as an opportunity rather than as a threat or burden. Participants are
encouraged to review the program review guidelines at their institutions
before the workshop.

includes scholars who have utilized programs like Atlas.ti and NVivo for
individual projects and/or research teams as well as those that are
more circumspect about the usefulness of software for unpacking
qualitative data. The goal is to provide audience members with a
broader understanding of some of the practical and theoretical issues
one must navigate in deciding whether (and how) to approach the use
of software in the analysis of qualitative data. Panelists will provide
their views and experiences with regard to the following questions: 1)
What has been your relationship to CAQDA? Do you have experience
teaching and training students and researchers to use software
packages? If you use software, did you decide which package(s) to use
for your work? To what extent have you incorporated software
packages into your data analysis? Have you used programs
individually or also within research teams? How have your experiences
and your perspective changed over time? 2) What are the pro's and
con's of CAQDA? How can researchers decide whether programs like
Atlas.ti or NVivo are advisable for their projects? 3) In what concrete
ways have you used these programs? Which features have been most
useful to you? Which features do you consider superfluous? 4) What
do your QDA work sessions look like? Do you move between multiple
programs (if so, what other programs do you use)? Do you shift
between coding by hand and coding with software? What best
practices have you discovered? 5) What is the relationship between
software and the conceptual process of coding and theory building? In
what ways do programs facilitate or impede theorization?

210. Presidential Panel. Organizational Dynamics
and Inequality
Session Organizer: Emilio J. Castilla, Massachusetts

Presider: Emilio J. Castilla, Massachusetts Institute of
Technology
Panelists: Trond Petersen, University of CaliforniaBerkeley
Frank Dobbin, Harvard University
Jennifer L. Glass, University of Texas-Austin
Donald Tomaskovic-Devey, University of
Massachusetts
At the core of current stratification studies lies the fundamental
premise that organizations and organizational practices play a key role
in shaping social inequality. Organizations mediate the matching of
individuals to labor market positions and are the sites of evaluation and
reward structures used to distribute power, wealth and prestige among
individuals and groups. The purpose of this presidential panel is to
bring together a group of researchers who share a concern for
advancing our knowledge about the organizational micro processes
and mechanisms that may account for how organizations affect
economic and social inequality in society. By discussing innovative
research that sheds new light on these issues across organizational
settings and using a variety of research approaches, this panel is
aimed at enriching future research within the broad topic of
organizational dynamics and stratification.
211. Thematic Session. Gender Politics in Intimate

Presider: Kristen Myers, Northern Illinois University
Panelists: Raewyn Connell, University of Sydney

In this global recession, traditional definitions of manhood are being
tested. Unemployment, debt, and heteronormative ideals collide
forcing a renegotiation of masculinity in intimate relationships.

Goldberg, Clark University
As the 21 Century moves along, we are seeing increasingly new
syntheses of family-building that are prompting greater awareness of
modern and post-modern family forms. This panel will highlight
emerging research on fathers and men in four diverse forms: lowincome heterosexual fathers raising children, fatherhood through
surrogacy, gay fatherhood through transracial adoption, and men in
transgendered partner households. The work and perspectives shared
in this session will stimulate thinking on how to best understand the
changes in how we conceptualize "family" as an institution, and the
roles and patterns of men in the process of "doing" family.
213. Thematic Session. Stigma as Inequality
Session Organizer: Jo C. Phelan, Columbia University
Presider: Bruce G. Link, Columbia University
Panelists: Mark Hatzenbueler, Columbia University
Danya Keene, University of Pennsylvania
Mark Padilla, University of Michigan
Helena Hansen, New York University
Jo C. Phelan, Columbia University
Jeffrey W. Lucas, University of Maryland-College
Park
Discussant: Bruce G. Link, Columbia University
Stigma is most often studied at an intrapersonal or interpersonal
level, rather than at a macro level or from a perspective that links
macro and micro levels. Stigma has usually not been strongly
connected conceptually or empirically to other bases of inequality
studied by sociologists, such as gender, race, ethnicity or class. And it
is not usually conceptualized as a form of inequality itself. This session
will attempt to make inroads toward remedying each of these limitations
in the study of stigma. Mark Hatzenbueler will present work linking
structural discrimination against sexual minorities to personal health
outcomes for LGB individuals. Danya Keene will address spatial
stigma, in which stigma attaches to places and people in or from those
places; spatial stigma is strongly shaped by race and class. Helena
Hansen will present work delineating how differential stigmatization of
crack and powder cocaine developed and the role played by the social
status of the primary users of each form of the drug (black and lower
income vs. white and higher income) in that development. Jo Phelan
and Jeffrey Lucas will present work that attempts to empirically test
whether the interpersonal processes involved in creating and
maintaining stigma vs. status hierarchies can be distinguished from one
another. Bruce Link will discuss the papers from the perspective of his
developing concept of “stigma power,” the power that is derived from
the process of stigmatizing others

Discussant: Bernice A. Pescosolido, Indiana University
In what seems like an increasingly regular occurrence, mass
shootings have lately captured the sustained attention of politicians,
educators, health care providers, and the public. The complex web of
factors that shapes such tragic events has been the subject of
sociological investigation historically, providing some clear insights into
roots and remedies. This session brings together three of sociology’s
experts with broad and deep research-based understanding of mass
events like these and the policy response to each of the two broad
issues – mental illness and gun ownership – that fuel the national and
international debates about solutions.

Panelists: Salvador Vidal-Ortiz, American University
John Nathaniel Parker, National Center for Ecological
Analysis and Synthesis
Janice McCabe, Dartmouth College
Jennifer Dawne Carlson, University of Toronto
While graduate programs prepare the doctoral student for their role
as professor, the new Ph.D. may feel less than prepared to maneuver
the vicissitudes of the job market let alone to negotiate a contract
conducive to a successful career. Panelists represent private and
public universities, and range from new assistant professors to
seasoned members of hiring committees. Each will share their
knowledge of negotiating the job offer.
217. Policy and Research Workshop. Recent
Advances in Social Network Analysis
Session Organizer: Jimi Adams, American University
Leader: Jimi Adams, American University
Panelists: Sinan Aral, New York University
David R. Schaefer, Arizona State University
Kevin Lewis, University of California-San Diego
Katherine Stovel, University of Washington
Social network analysis (SNA) has become an important
contributor to how sociologists understand and explain social
processes, such as those that produce and reproduce inequality. From
exchange theory to the "strength of weak ties," SNA has become
deeply embedded in the study of how people experience inequality
across a range of social experiences. Thus, while SNA's import to
sociological thinking is well established, several recent theoretical and
methodological developments in SNA will define the contours of its
future contributions to sociology specifically and the social sciences
more generally. This session will entail a panel discussion of some of
those recent advances, including (among others) the role in SNA of:
theory, statistical models, “big data,” and the intersection of online and
offline interactions.
218. Teaching Workshop. Social Networking as a
Teaching Tool
Session Organizer: Chad Gesser, Owensboro
Community and Technical College
Leader: Chad Gesser, Owensboro Community and
Technical College
Co-Leaders: John Robert Girdwood, Michigan State
University
Matthew T. Loveland, Le Moyne College
This workshop will explore how social media/networking tools can
be used with students and in the classroom setting. There are
increasing opportunities to engage with students in and outside of the
classroom, and to bridge the online world with the physical. Several
presenters will share their work with students, highlighting their use of
Google Applications, Twitter, Facebook, and other tools to promote
learning and broader understanding of Sociology. this workshop will
move beyond introductory use of these tools. A primary goal of the
workshop is for attendees to walk away with a general understanding
on considerations of use and implementation of two or more of these
tools with students and the classroom.

Theorists quite understandably tend to highlight the comparative
strengths of their theories to be able to compete effectively in the
marketplace of ideas. Perfection is nevertheless an elusive goal, and
scholars who have worked extensively with any given perspective are
particularly well placed to recognize the deficiencies in current
theoretical formulations that are in most need of concerted attention.
This invited session provides a platform for such scholars to share with
the sociological community their assessments of the most important
limitations associated with the respective theoretical perspectives and
their thoughts about potentially promising lines of inquiry that have the
potential to promote future theoretical growth. Panelists have been
asked to address the following questions. What are the most important
limitations in the theoretical perspective at present? Why are these
limitations of strategic importance? How might the limitations be
surmounted in the years ahead?

How should we introduce students to sociology and what should

discussion will include analysis of what is unique about sociology,
issues around multidisciplinary fields and how they may threaten
sociology, and the role of applied dimensions of sociology. Participants

major panelist points.

Discussant: Florencia Torche, New York University
Americans place great hopes in higher education. A college degree
is expected to promote economic development and competitiveness,
reduce inequality, and erase the advantages of birth in the competition
for socioeconomic success. The promise of higher education has,
however, been called into question by several recent developments,
including persistent socioeconomic differences in access to and,
increasingly, in the completion of college, growing college costs, and
the increase in “non-standard” higher education trajectories. This panel
examines different dimensions of the role that higher education plays in
reducing inequality and inducing social mobility in current American
society.
250. Thematic Session. Immigration and American
Society from 1980 to 2040

and the Immigrant Drive. Alejandro Portes, Princeton
University
By 1980, there were clear signs that the “Post 1965 Wave of
Immigration Era” was beginning to take hold with a little over 14 million
foreign born persons counted in the 1980 Census—an almost 50
percent increase during the decade of the 1970s. But the percent
foreign born was only about 6%, and in much of the United States
including the Midwest and the South, immigrants were all but invisible.
In spite of several legislative efforts to slow or stop immigration over the
last three decades, to say nothing of the militarization of the southern
border, growing xenophobia fueled by talk radio and some political
leaders and numerous commissions and studies, immigration has
continued apace over the last three decades. As of 2012, there are
about 40 million foreign born, and perhaps an equal number of second
generation immigrants—almost 1 in four Americans is an immigrant or
the child of an immigrant. Immigrants are a visible presence in almost
part of the country, and in many large cities the immigrant community
(counting first and second generation) may soon constitute a majority of
the population. How did this happen? And what lies ahead? This
thematic session will feature several notable immigration researchers to
reflect on impact of immigration on the changing character of the United
States over the last three decades and to offer their informed judgment
of what will happen during the next three decades.
251. Thematic Session. New Forms of Workplace

Workplace Flexibility in the United States: A Status
Report. Ellen Galinksy, Families and Work Institute
Workplace practices designed to enhance workers’ (and
sometimes employers’) flexibility are becoming increasingly important,
as dual earner families continue to increase and time pressures on

variety of ways in which employers, unions and other policy makers are
seeking to address concerns related to workplace flexibility.
252. Thematic Session. Social Exchange Processes:

Presider: David R. Schaefer, Arizona State University
Panelists: Karen S. Cook, Stanford University
Edward J. Lawler, Cornell University
Linda D. Molm, University of Arizona
Jonathan H. Turner, University of California-Riverside
Social exchange processes are inherently micro-macro, linking
interpersonal interactions with larger macro structures and processes,
with significant consequences for individuals, relationships, and
communities. This session examines social exchange not only as a
fundamental process in the production of inequality and conflict, but as
an important vehicle for overcoming divisions and contributing to social
order.

After nearly fifty years of massive inflows, New York is a truly
immigrant city. About one out of three New Yorkers is now foreign
born. Adding the U.S. born second generation the figure is more than
one out of two or about four and a half million people. This session
provides an up-to-date look at how immigrants have been transforming
New York --- and how immigrants themselves have been transformed
by living in the city.
257. Departmental Management and Leadership

Laura Robinson, Santa Clara University
Anabel Quan-Haase, University of Western Ontario
John Ryan, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State
University
The discussion will begin with a focus on three themes : 1. Faculty
engagement with the public outside the traditional scholarly community,
2. New forms of scholarly communication and publication, 3. Work
across disciplinary lines. These will be considered in the context of a
tightening academic job market, particularly with regard to tenure-track
and tenured positions.
258. Professional Development Workshop. Juggling?

Institutions of Higher Education
Session Organizer: Giovanna Follo, Emporia State
University
Leader: Giovanna Follo, Emporia State University
This is an interactive workshop that is designed to share the
experiences of participants negotiating work-family policies within their
institutions. Participants will either share specific instances where they
dealt with family policy and/or will share the policies that exist within
their institutions. As these experiences and policies are shared, as a
group, they will be analyzed and suggestions for possible changes or
creation of policy will take place. Participants attending this workshop
should bring current policies and conflicts that have occurred with these
policies. It is the purpose of this workshop to share and brainstorm
ideas to improve the work-family balance in institutions of higher
education.

In the last twenty years, cultural analysis has become constitutive
of various subfields of political sociology. This panel focuses upon how
sociologists have confronted the political and the cultural across a
range of methodologies (from ethnographic to historical) and topic

have come to terms with this hybrid field in their past and on-going
research.
