  • The Reckoning of Time in Domestic Labor
    2010
    Co-Authors: Nichole Shippen
    Abstract:

    This paper revisits the question of inequality between women residing in the United States by examining the ability of some women to purchase time from working class women, women of color, and, increasingly, immigrant women in the form of domestic services in order to utilize their time elsewhere. I argue that the Political Consequence of such time redistribution is that some women have been able to shift the burden of the sexual division of labor within the household (i.e. the second shift) onto the division of labor along class, race, and immigrant status lines. Early feminist conversations with respect to domestic labor often argued that the wages for housework campaign would leave the sexual division of labor in place. Indeed, the ever increasing commodification of previously defined private (and thus largely unpaid) domestic work has contemporary feminist economists asking whether this transformation has expanded women's autonomy and equality. By revisiting early feminist critiques in light of new historical conditions, I approach the question of domestic labor from an inter-generational feminist position. My main conclusion is that freedom from the realm of necessity for some women comes at the expense of those who serve (often life time sentences) in the realm of necessity for others.

  • the transformation of southern politics social change and Political Consequence since 1945
    1995
    Co-Authors: Jack Bass, Walter De Vries
    Abstract:

    Stressing the relevance of The Transformation of Southern Politics as a background for understanding the South into the next century, Jack Bass and Walter De Vries write that the "themes of change in southern politics still involve the rise of the Republican Party, black Political development and the Democratic response to it - and the interaction of these forces with social and economic issues." The Transformation of Southern Politics examines the post-World War II Political evolution of the eleven southern states and traces the effects of such influences as Brown v. Board of Education, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, urban migration, the growth of the Republican Party, and the rise of African Americans in the Political landscape. In the preface to the Brown Thrasher edition, Bass and De Vries offer an overview of the region's current Political climate, including an analysis of the 1994 mid-term elections. They also provide excerpts from their interview with Bill Clinton during his first campaign for Political office.

  • No Compromise: Political Consequences of Moralized Attitudes ⇤
    American Journal of Political Science, 2016
    Co-Authors: Timothy J. Ryan
    Abstract:

    Evolutionary, neuroscientific, and cognitive perspectives in psychology have converged on the idea that some attitudes are moralized—a distinctive characteristic. Moralized attitudes reorient behavior from maximizing gains to adhering to rules. Here, I examine a Political Consequence of this tendency. In four studies drawing data from a variety of sources, I measure attitude moralization and examine how it relates to approval of Political compromise. I find that moralized attitudes lead citizens to oppose compromises, punish compromising politicians, and even pay a monetary cost to obstruct Political opponents’ gain. These patterns emerge on social and economic issues alike and have implications for understanding Political polarization.
