Final Exam Study Guide
Please review the following questions and be prepared to write a short answer response for your final exam. The final exam will be open book and notes, but you must put your responses in your own words. You may use quotes, but very sparingly and only to support statements you’ve already made—i.e. you can’t use the author’s words to respond to the question, you must demonstrate comprehension. You can begin preparing your responses in advance of the final exam and bring them to the final. The final exam will be in class. If you don’t have a laptop please let me know.
I will choose a selection of these exact questions for the final exam.
QUESTION 1
David Harvey’s text provides an analysis of how the need to expand markets under capitalism impacts urban development, often favoring the interests of investors over the urban public. He describes the many instances in modern history where government regimes and private interests have identified urban expansion and “revitalization” programs as a means of reinvesting surplus product to create surplus value (i.e. profits). For this question, explain:
1. Why does Harvey believes the process of finding new markets to reinvest surplus value is relevant to a discussion on urban development? In your answer, explain what surplus value is and why capitalists need to constantly find new markets to maintain profits.
2. Explain how this process was manifested historically by relaying one of the examples in Harvey’s text (i.e. Haussmann’s reconstruction of Paris under Louis Napoleon, postwar suburban development in the U.S, etc.)
QUESTION 2
Jane Jacobs’ book The Death and Life of Great American Cities was an attack on city planning. It came at a time when cities across the country were feeling the negative impact of Title I, Title 2, and Title 10 legislation by the federal government, and the private real estate development industry’s capitalization on that legislation. This included increased suburbanization, in which predominantly white middle income families were provided with incentives and support to purchase homes outside the city. This also meant they took their tax dollars with them—and often jobs relocated to the suburbs as well. As a result, center cities began to deteriorate, and those that remained found it difficult to secure good paying jobs. As the housing stock declined, those with profit interests in the city advocated widespread “slum clearance,” replacing older communities with new public and private housing towers. This led to a lot of displacement, upsetting tight knit communities and leaving many low income and ethnic and racial minorities in insecure housing situations—and sometimes even homeless.
1. How might terms like “urban renewal” or “urban revitalization” be used politically to enact slum clearance or other programs that, in Jane Jacobs’ observation, eradicate great neighborhoods?
2. What did she see was so great about those run-down communities as oppose ...

Feedback: Some people thrive in teleworking arrangements, whereas others discover that it is neither a satisfying nor productive work environment for them. This scale assesses three personal dispositions that are identified in the literature as characteristics of effective teleworkers: (a) high company alignment, (b) low social needs at work and (c) independent initiative.
Company alignment
Company alignment estimates the extent to which you follow company procedures and have values congruent with company values. The greater the alignment, the more likely that you can abide by company practices while working alone and with direct supervision. While some deviation from company practices may be appropriate, teleworkers need to agree with company values and provide work that is consistent with company expectations most of the time. Scores on this scale range from 4 to 20.

Feedback: Low individualism
Individualism refers to the extent that you value independence and personal uniqueness. Highly individualist people value personal freedom, self-sufficiency, control over their own lives, and appreciation of their unique qualities that distinguish them from others.
However, keep in mind that the average level of individualism is higher in some cultures (such as Australia) than in others.
2. Total score: 8 pts.
RANGE BASED FEEDBACK:
6-12 pts.
Feedback: Low work centrality
People with high work centrality define themselves mainly by their work roles and view non-work roles as much less significant. Consequently, people with a high work centrality score likely have lower complexity in their self-concept. This can be a concern because if something goes wrong with their work role, their non-work roles are not of sufficient value to maintain a positive self-evaluation. At the same time, work dominates our work lives, so those with very low scores would be more of the exception than the rule in most societies. Scores range from 6 to 36 with higher scores indicating higher work centrality. The norms in the following table are based on a large sample of Canadian employees (average score was 20.7). However, work centrality norms vary from one group to the next. For example, the average score in a sample of Canadian nurses was around 17 (translated to the scale range used here).
3. Total score: 32 pts.
RANGE BASED FEEDBACK:
28-32 pts.
Feedback: High need for social approval
The need for social approval scale estimates the extent to which you are motivated to seek favourable evaluation from others. Founded on the drive to bond, the need for social approval is a secondary need, because people vary in this need based on their self-concept, values, personality and possibly social norms. This scale ranges from 0 to 32. How high or low is your need for social approval? The ideal would be to compare your score with the collective results of other students in your class. Otherwi ...

Final Exam Study Guide
Please review the following questions and be prepared to write a short answer response for your final exam. The final exam will be open book and notes, but you must put your responses in your own words. You may use quotes, but very sparingly and only to support statements you’ve already made—i.e. you can’t use the author’s words to respond to the question, you must demonstrate comprehension. You can begin preparing your responses in advance of the final exam and bring them to the final. The final exam will be in class. If you don’t have a laptop please let me know.
I will choose a selection of these exact questions for the final exam.
QUESTION 1
David Harvey’s text provides an analysis of how the need to expand markets under capitalism impacts urban development, often favoring the interests of investors over the urban public. He describes the many instances in modern history where government regimes and private interests have identified urban expansion and “revitalization” programs as a means of reinvesting surplus product to create surplus value (i.e. profits). For this question, explain:
1. Why does Harvey believes the process of finding new markets to reinvest surplus value is relevant to a discussion on urban development? In your answer, explain what surplus value is and why capitalists need to constantly find new markets to maintain profits.
2. Explain how this process was manifested historically by relaying one of the examples in Harvey’s text (i.e. Haussmann’s reconstruction of Paris under Louis Napoleon, postwar suburban development in the U.S, etc.)
QUESTION 2
Jane Jacobs’ book The Death and Life of Great American Cities was an attack on city planning. It came at a time when cities across the country were feeling the negative impact of Title I, Title 2, and Title 10 legislation by the federal government, and the private real estate development industry’s capitalization on that legislation. This included increased suburbanization, in which predominantly white middle income families were provided with incentives and support to purchase homes outside the city. This also meant they took their tax dollars with them—and often jobs relocated to the suburbs as well. As a result, center cities began to deteriorate, and those that remained found it difficult to secure good paying jobs. As the housing stock declined, those with profit interests in the city advocated widespread “slum clearance,” replacing older communities with new public and private housing towers. This led to a lot of displacement, upsetting tight knit communities and leaving many low income and ethnic and racial minorities in insecure housing situations—and sometimes even homeless.
1. How might terms like “urban renewal” or “urban revitalization” be used politically to enact slum clearance or other programs that, in Jane Jacobs’ observation, eradicate great neighborhoods?
2. What did she see was so great about those run-down communities as oppose ...

However, during these same years South Korea had a 6 percent growth rate of average annual income per person, while the United States had only a 2 percent growth rate. If the saving rates were the same, why were the growth rates so different?

1. Describe the actions you will take to increase your net cash flows in the near future.
The first step is to reduce living expenditures. It is critical to lessen the amount spent on living expenses and other variables and save for future use. I will have to prevent luxuries such as vacation costs or keep them in check to avoid spending a hefty amount on them. I should check the option to cook for myself and avoid buying food. Also, I will choose a destination I can drive myself to save on rental car expenditures and airfare. I will have a detailed budget indicating the amount required for savings, debt repayment, and investment that will assist only to spend the money on essential expenditures. Further, the savings can help to start a business and become self-employed in the distant future.
I would have to look for a job that pays well or engage in a robust salary negotiation. The right time to negotiate for salary is during a performance review, compensation meeting, or job promotion (Bellon, Cookson, Gilje, & Heimer, 2020). I will ensure that I expand my education and technic ...

Integrity of any organization regardless whether it is in healthcare or business or government is paramount. Because of integrity comes trust. Having trust in a healthcare organization is nonnegotiable. It is the foundation of a world-class organization. Executives who ignore ethics run the risk of personal and corporate liability in today’s increasingly tough legal environment (Lynn S. Paine, 1994, Managing for Organizational Integrity, pp. 2-21)
First, the healthcare organization. The healthcare organization is the head or the governing body. It is charged of day-to-day functions, establish policies, guidance, business process, safety, security and all the administrative duties. Integrity is and must be the cornerstone of any healthcare organization. Without it, no clinicians or workers that would knowingly work for an organization that they cannot trust or feel safe. And most importantly, if the patients do not have trust in the organization, they will avoid that facility at all cost.
Second, the clinicians. The clinicians are what makes the organization or facility function. Whether they are the providers, nurses or staff it is important that they have the integrity to always do what is right not only for the healthcare team or the organization, but most specially for the patient. It starts with the clinical leaders building trust to their subordinate staff by having the integrity and values of what a leader should be. Once that is established, then it permeates throughout the entire team. Thereby improving the healthcare delivery.
Lastly, and the most important is the patient. At the center of the entire system needs to be the patient. Once the patient recognizes the integrity or values of the healthcare organization and the clinicians delivering healthcare, patient trust is established. The patient satisfaction also increases. According to Cowing, Davino-Ramaya, Ramaya, Szmerekovsky, 2009, pp.72, “if patients are satisfied with clinician-patient interactions, they are likely to be more compliant with their treatment plan, to understand their role in the recovery process, and to follow through with the recommended treatment”. Having integrity or values in the healthcare delivery is the basic principle of healthcare leadership.

Case Study in-class Presentations Assignment
1): Moral Courage with a Dying Patient
Mr. T. is an 82-year-old widower who has been a patient on your unit several times over the past 5 years. His CHF, COPD, and diabetes have taken a toll on his body. He now needs oxygen 24 hours a day and still has dyspnea and tachycardia at rest. On admission, his ejection fraction is less than 20%, EKG shows a QRS interval of greater than 0.13 seconds, and his functional class is IV on NYHA assessment.
He has remained symptomatic despite maximum medical management with a vasodilator and diuretics. He tells you, "This is my last trip; I am glad I have made peace with my family and God. Nurse, I am ready to die." You ask about an advance directive and he tells you his son knows that he wants no heroics, but they just have never gotten around to filling out the form. When the son arrives, you suggest that he speak with the social worker to complete the advance directive and he agrees reluctantly. You page the physician to discuss DNR status with the son. Unfortunately, Mr. T. experiences cardiac arrest before the discussion occurs and you watch helplessly as members of the Code Blue Team perform resuscitation. Mr. T. is now on a ventilator and the son has dissolved into tears with cries of, "Do not let him die!"
2): Moral Courage to Confront Bullying
Melissa started on the unit as a new graduate 5 weeks ago. She is still in orientation and has a good relationship with her preceptor. The preceptor has been assigned consistently to Melissa for most of the last 4 weeks, but due to family emergency has not been available in the last week. Melissa has been told that she will be precepted by a different nurse for the remainder of her orientation. The new preceptor has not been welcoming, supportive, or focused on the educational goals of the orientation. In fact, this new preceptor has voiced to all who will listen her feelings about the incompetence of new BSN graduates. The crisis occurs when Melissa fails to recognize a patient's confusion as a result of an adverse medication effect. The preceptor berates Melissa in the nurses' station, makes sarcastic comments in shift report abou ...

1. In our grant application, we included the following interventions as our evidence-based programs: Family Therapy (to promote family acceptance and support, a key factor for overall health outcomes for this population), Motivational Interviewing (to address higher co-occurrence of substance use concerns), Trauma-Focused Treatment (including EMDR Therapy and TF-CBT, to address higher rates of complex trauma including from systemic oppression), and CBT (a gold standard treatment modality, but adapted to meet the needs of our client population by incorporating elements of
Solution
s-Focused or Narrative approaches to make it more strengths-based).
For questions 2-4, you would need to do some of your own research in the literature on these treatment modalities and determine for yourself if there were best practices that should be incorporated into the plan used at the agency.

1. I believe that the protagonist is Nel because she is the one thMartineMccracken314
1. I believe that the protagonist is Nel because she is the one that goes through different changes throughout the book. I also think she is the protagonist because most people can relate to her more. Nel was done wrong by Sula and her husband Jude Green. Sula did the one thing that a best friend should never do and, that is sleep with your best friend's husband. Even though Sula did a terrible thing Nel still cares about her best friend because she goes and visits her when she is sick even after all the pain she caused her. Nel is also deeply saddened when she visits Sulas grave. That is not the only thing that happened to Nel. Nel not only had to deal with the affair but also accepted her guilt in Chicken Little's drowning. But in the end, Nel realized she enjoyed watching him drown.
Everything changed when Sula came back to Nels life. Nel was happy before. She was happy with her family and her husband, but when Sula came back that all changed. After the affair and Sulas death, Nel was alone. Nel became a single mother and, she no longer has a good relationship with another man.
2. I believe that although the title of the story is Sula, the main protaginist of the story is Nel. Nel is kept until the end of the story and Sulay passes away and exit's the story. I think in this pivitol moment is when the author wanted to make Nel the main character. Nel contained her emotion until towards the end of the story when she has a conversation with Eva, Nel nervously comments "Who told you all these lies? Miss Peace? Who told you? Why are you telling lies on me?" I believe the author wanted us to feel the anxiousness and wonder that Nel found out that somebody finally knew about the little boy being thrown. I believe this admission of guilt to Eva brings closure to Nel. Nel was trying to hide her emotions the entire time and it wasn't after being confronted that she broke down about it and visited Sulay's grave. Nel even stated "I don't know. No." when asked whether somebody saw the boy being thrown into the river. This shows that Nel was not sure at all in the moment it happened whether somebody knew. Nel wanted to not think about what happen forever and try to mute the situation but Eva bringing it up, made Nel feel terrible about what happened which is why she ended up visting Sulay's grave. I think muting herself from knowing the little boy was thrown was still not a 'good' way to look at it, from her end. She wanted to believe a lie by just pretending it never happened. It wasn't after someone brought up the situation to her that her feelings change.
3. Although the novel is titled Sula, the real protagonist is Nel because she is the one who is transformed by the end. Sula and Nel were very great friends and were very dedicated to each other. But they were also very different. Nel was known as the more mature and "good person" while Sula is more impulsive. "Nel is the product of a family that believes deeply in social conventions, hers is a st ...

1. Team teaching
In team teaching, both teachers are in the room at the same time but take turns teaching the whole class. Team teaching is sometimes called “tag team teaching.” You and your co-teacher teacher are a bit like co-presenters at a conference or the Oscars. You don’t necessarily plan who takes which part of the lesson, and when one of you makes a point, the other can jump in and elaborate if needed.
Team teaching can make you feel vulnerable. It asks you to step outside of your comfort zone and allow another teacher to see how you approach a classroom full of students. However, it also gives you the opportunity to learn about and improve your teaching skills by having a partner who can provide feedback and — in some cases — mentorship.
In team teaching, as well as the five other co-teaching models below, a teacher team may be made up of two general education teachers, two special education teachers, or one of each. Or, in some cases, it may be a teacher and a paraprofessional working together. Some IEPs specify that a student’s teaching team needs to include a general education teacher and a special education teacher.
Here’s what you need to know about the team teaching method:
What it looks like in the classroom
Both teachers teach at the front of the room and move about to check in with students (as needed).
Benefits
· Provides both teachers with an active instructional role
· Introduces students to complementary teaching styles and personalities
· Allows for lessons to be presented by two different people with different teaching styles
· Models multiple ways of presenting and engaging with information
· Models for students what a successful collaborative working relationship can look like
· Provides more opportunities to pursue teachable moments that may arise
Challenges
· Takes time and trust for teachers to build a working relationship that values each teacher equally in the classroom
· Necessitates a lot of planning time and coordination of schedules
· Requires teachers to have equal involvement not just in planning, but also in grading, which means assignments need to be evaluated ...

The brochure quotes the CAPRIE study, and you decide to investigate this further. A review of the 1996 article reveals that study patients on Plavix® experienced cardiovascular events 9.78% of the time compared to 10.64% of the time with aspirin. Plavix® was approved by the FDA based on this one study. Cost of Plavix/day=$6.50. Cost of aspirin/day = $1.33

1. Find something to negotiate in your personal or professional life. Examples include: redistribution of household chores, a personal or professional purchase, a contract at work, asking for a raise, booking a vacation, hiring a contractor, etc. The deal does not have to be implemented for the purposes of this class (e.g. you can finalize the price for something you’re thinking of buying without following through on the purchase right now). The scenario you choose should be significant enough to allow you to do substantial research and detail for your paper. Submit a five page paper (minimum), double spaces, utilizing proper grammar and spelling, which summarizes the following:
1. Your Preparation – Describe the process you used and results of your preparation. You should also discuss your strategies, targets, and negotiating plan. Make sure you do your research, working on both your BATNA and the other party’s. (Consider newspapers, bookstores, libraries, the internet, and personal calls and visits as possible sources of information). This is the most important step, so being thorough is critical.
1. The Negotiating Process – Describe what happened in the negotiation itself. List he sequence of events and how you reacted/adjusted to the other party’s position. What was the negotiation style of the other party? What “tricks” did they try? How did you react? Were there any other influencing factors (e.g. cultural differences, misperceptions, emotion, etc.)?
1. The Outcome – What was the outcome and how did you feel about it? What worked well? What would you have done differently? Do you feel the result you arrived at was better than it would have been if you hadn’t taken the class? Why/Why not?
Your understanding of the appropriate preparation and process steps to take in negotiating this deal is more important than the final outcome.
Be sure to cite your sources, and include copies of necessary quotes/documentation.

1. FAMILYMy 57 year old mother died after a short illness MartineMccracken314
1. FAMILY
My 57 year old mother died after a short illness last June. She was a wonderful mother and my 66 year old father
adored her. They had been married for 38 years. He is finding it extremely difficult to cope without her. To make
matters worse, he retired just two months before she died and is at a loss to fill his days.
He is disorganized and has not established any pattern in his life. I invite him for meals and outings, but he is
detached and depressed. He doesn’t seem to be part of the world any more. I am terribly worried about him. How
long will he be like this? I am 34 and have small children. I thought being with the children would help him, but it’s
as though he doesn’t see or know them. He just sits and stares into space for much of the day. He seems locked
into his grief.
2. FAMILY
One of our 17 year old son’s best friends took his life several months ago. Our son didn’t say much at the time, but
he was very shaken. Since then he has gradually “retired” into himself. He stays in his room most of the time
listening to rock music.
He is unemployed and no longer sees his former schoolmates. We are very worried about him. How do we get him
out of himself? He has always been a quiet guy but his present behavior is beyond “quiet.” We have two other
children, girls aged 13 and 10, but our son now just ignores them.

Ken is a 67 year old farmer who lives with his wife Margaret. Ken and Margaret had hoped to retire late in their 60s
and move to the west coast to be closer to their children, reluctantly selling the family property that has been
struggling financially. They have limited investment funds set aside to support their retirement and have been told
it is unlikely that they would be successful in selling their farm. Ken also suffers chronic back pain from a previous
farm injury. A neighbor has become concerned about Ken’s ability to cope with his property, and has visited Ken
and Margaret a number of times due to problems with his stock and pasture management. Margaret believes the
farm is “too much for them now,” but feels she can’t talk to Ken about this. Ken has become withdrawn and
refuses to discuss the issue. He talks about there being “no way out of this,” and that it “might as well be over.” He
sees his physician infrequently, having difficulty traveling the 60 miles to the nearby town.

Case 20 Restructuring
General Electric
The appointment of Larry Culp as the chairman and CEO of the General Electric
Company (GE) on October 1st, 2018 was a clear indication of the seriousness of the
problems that had engulfed the company. Culp, the former CEO of the highly-successful
conglomerate, Danaher Corporation, had been appointed a GE director only six months
previously and was the first outsider to lead GE—every one of GE’s previous CEOs had
been a career manager at the company. On the same day as Culp’s appointment, GE
abandoned its earning guidance for the year and announced a $23 billion accounting
charge arising from a write-down of goodwill at its troubled electrical power division.1
Culp’s predecessor, John Flannery had been CEO for a mere 14 months—a sharp
contrast to GE’s two previous CEOs: Jeff Immelt (16 years) and Jack Welch (20 years).
Flannery’s tenure at GE has coincided with of the company’s most difficult periods in its
entire 126-year history. In November 2017, amidst deteriorating financial performance,
Flannery announced a halving of GE’s quarterly dividend, the proposed sale of its
lighting and locomotive units—two of GE’s oldest businesses—and the elimination of
12,000 jobs in the power division.
In 2018, the situation worsened. In January, GE announced that it would be paying
$15 bn. to cover liabilities at insurance companies it had sold 12 years previously. In
February, GE confirmed suspicions over its dubious accounting practices by restating its
revenues and earnings for the previous two years, while also announcing the likelihood
of legal claims arising from its its subprime mortgage lending over a decade earlier.
The outcome was a precipitous fall in GE’s share price (see Figure 1) that culminated
in GE’s dismissal from the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA). Until June 2018, GE
was the sole surviving member of the DJIA when it was created in 1896.
The crisis at GE presented the board with two central questions. First, should GE
be broken up? Second, if GE was to continue as a widely-diversified company, how
should it be managed?
As a diversified corporation that extended from jet engines, to oil and gas equipment,
to healthcare products, to financial services, GE was an anomaly. For three decades, con-
glomerates—diversified companies comprising unrelated or loosely related businesses—
had been deeply unfashionable. CEOs, Jack Welch and Jeff Immelt, had claimed that,
by virtue of its integrated m ...

Body Ritual among the Nacirema
H O R A C E M I N E R
University of Michigan
HE anthropologist has become so familiar with the diversity of ways iq T which different peoples behave in similar situations that he is not a p t to.
be surprised by even the most exotic customs. I n fact, if all of thelogically
possible combinations of behavior have not been found somewhere in the
world, he is a p t to suspect that they must be present in some yet undescribed
tribe. This point has, in fact, been expressed with respect to clan organization
by Murdock (1949: 7 1 ) . I n this light, the magical beliefs and practices of the
Nacirema present such unusual aspects that i t seems desirable t o describe
them a s an example of the extremes to which human behavior can go.
Professor Linton first brought the ritual of the Nacirema to the attention
of anthropologists twenty years ago (1936:326), but the culture of this people
is still very poorly understood. They are a North American group living in the
territory between the Canadian Cree, the Yaqui and Tarahumare of Mexico,
and the Carib and Arawak of the Antilles. Little is known of their origin, al-
though tradition states that they came from the east. According to Nacirema
mythology, their nation was originated by a culture hero, Notgnihsaw, who is
otherwise known for two great feats of strength-the throwing of a piece of
wampum across the river Pa-To-Mac and the chopping down of a cherry tree
in which the Spirit of Truth resided.
Nacirema culture is characterized by a highly developed market economy
which has evolved in a rich natural habitat. While much of the people’s time
is devoted to economic pursuits, a large part of the fruits of these labors and a
considerable portion of the day are spent in ritual activity. The focus of this
activity is the human body, the appearance and health of which loom a s a
dominant concern in the ethos of the people. While such a concern is certainly
not unusual, its ceremonial aspects and associated philosophy are unique.
The fundamental belief underlying the whole system appears to be that the
human body is ugly and that its natural tendency is t o debility and disease.
Incarcerated in such a body, man’s only hope is to avert these characteristics
through the use of the powerful influences of ritual and ceremony. Every house-
hold has one or more shrines devoted to this purpose. The more powerful in-
dividuals in the society have several shrines in their houses and, in fact, the
opulence of a house is often referred to in terms of the num ...

Week Two Instructor’s Notes
PHIL 1103 Summer
This week you will be learning in detail about the four different moral perspectives that
we will use to analyze moral questions.
Notice two things right at the start. First, because normative ethics is our main focus this
term, we are not going to attempt to settle the question of whether any moral perspective at all
could be correct or known to be correct—that is a task for metaethics. Our task in this second
week is to learn in some detail about four different kinds of consideration or value that often
seem relevant when we try to decide what is morally right or wrong in particular cases, namely:
(1) Respect for the rights and autonomy of the persons involved
(2) Increasing the overall well-being of the most individuals possible
(3) Asking wha ...

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

THE FUTURE OF URBAN LIFE
Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
Page 3
INTRODUCTION
Think back to any moment in your life when you stepped into an
entirely new city, or
even a new neighborhood that was very different from your
own. You might recall hearing
phrases that you hadn’t heard before, or observing customs that
were unfamiliar. You might
15. not have known whether a particular street was safe or
dangerous, whether you were
welcome or observed with suspicion. You might have spent
some time asking questions about
that strange place, observing the people around you, or
exploring your surroundings to figure
out exactly how the place works, why the people are all from
the same ethnic group, why the
houses look so big and fancy, or why the streets feel so
dangerous.
This is what urban sociologists do. In this chapter we’ll
introduce you to the work of
social scientists who analyze large-scale data on where groups
of city dwellers live, why
immigrants decide to come to the United States (or to leave),
where crime takes place, where
housing is built, where jobs are prevalent and where they are
scarce. We’ll introduce you to
researchers who have spent years living in a community to try
to understand how it works from
the inside.
Let’s start with William Helmreich, a longtime professor in
New York City, who took a
different approach—he decided to walk through almost every
16. block of his city.1 Helmreich
walked about 6,000 miles over the course of four years, going
through nine pairs of sneakers in
the process. He kept notes on scenes from the city as he passed,
watched to see who was in
the parks and who was on their front stoops, and talked with as
many people as he could.
And he discovered an urban landscape that sometimes
transformed from one block to the
next, where kids took tennis lessons in a pristine park just a few
streets away from where young
men walked down the street conspicuously wearing the colors of
their gang.2 He saw hints of
change up close, and learned that residents had a very different
view of the change in their
neighborhoods than outsiders like journalists or politicians did.
And he saw tremendous, almost
unfathomable diversity, visible in the distinct clothes of
Orthodox Jews and the bustling street
markets of Chinatown.
Walking the city’s streets, he found a population of New
Yorkers who “display both
small-town values and a high degree of sophistication.” But
what united everyone, according
17. to Helmreich, was their shared claim to the city—the collective
understanding of what makes
their city different, the unflinching acceptance of the wide
variety of people who come
together in the subway cars, the feeling of solidarity that comes
from living in the city where
the towers came down on September 11th, 2001. Their city was
their common identity.
We are very sad to say that William Helmreich passed away
from COVID-19 in 2020. But
we hope his work inspires you to join us as we pursue two goals
for this chapter. The first goal is
Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
Page 4
to introduce you to important ideas and debates about two large-
scale processes,
immigration and urbanization, that affect how every part of
society works. We will examine
how these processes alter how cities function, what they look
like, and the way we live our
lives. We’ll ask questions like, How has the growing movement
18. of humans to cities affected our
lives and interactions? How can we explain the emergence and
transformation of cities and
neighborhoods? How have American cities changed in the last
century? What are the major
trends and problems in urban areas? Are cities leading us
toward economic growth and
environmental sustainability or are they breeding grounds for
poverty and inequality?
Chinatown, Manhattan, New York City. (Source)
This is the stuff of urban sociology. But the second goal of the
chapter is to get you to
consider different ways to learn about the neighborhoods and
cities that surround us, as well
as communities around the world. William Helmreich walked
through almost every block of his
city, and he learned a tremendous amount about New York in
the process. But is there
anything he might have missed along the way? Do people act
the same way outdoors, on
the street, as they do when they’re inside with their friends and
families? Do residents talk to a
19. stranger in their neighborhood the same way that they talk to a
neighbor who’s lived next

door for years? How might an older White man be perceived as
he walks, alone, down a New
York city street?
“You need to walk slowly through an area to capture its
essence,” Helmreich wrote. As
you read through this chapter, try to keep thinking like a social
scientist. Ask yourself: Do I
believe the ideas I’m reading? What kind of evidence would be
more convincing? If I wanted
to “capture the essence” of an entirely new city or
neighborhood, how would I do it?
URBANIZATION
20. ok like and how are they connected?
This is a good time to study cities, because they are taking over
the world. Cities have
been around for more than 5,000 years, but they used to look
very different than they do
today. Ancient cities were often the capitals of empires and
centers for trade, surrounded by
walls and protected from the outside. The modern city dates
back only a couple hundred
years. When the factory first emerged in Britain in the 1700s,
people began to move from rural
areas to the nation’s industrial cities. The process of
urbanization, defined by growth in the
proportion of a nation’s population that lives in cities, spread
from Britain to the rest of Europe,
then to the United States, then to much of the rest of the world.
Now, for the first time in human history, more than half of the
world’s population lives in
urban areas.3 From 1950 to 2014, the number of people living
in urban areas rose from around
21. 750 million to almost 4 billion. Urbanization is happening in
every corner of the globe. Tokyo,
Japan, is the largest city in the world, with over 38 million
residents. But cities like Delhi, India;
Shanghai, China; Paris, France; São Paolo, Brazil; Lagos,
Nigeria; and New York City are other
examples of megacities, urban areas with over ten million
people, that have sprouted up in
North and South America, Europe, Africa, and Asia. Although
Africa and Asia are the only two
major continents where less than half of the population lives in
urban areas, they are
urbanizing at the fastest pace. By 2050, close to two-thirds of
Asia’s population will live in urban
areas.
In many parts of the world, cities that are near one another are
connected by
transportation lines and economic activity, forming
megaregions, or chains of densely

22. populated areas that extend over long stretches of space. In
satellite images taken in the
evening, these stretches of land appear as wide swaths of space
lit up with activity.4 One
megaregion in England stretches across London to Leeds, to
Manchester, to Liverpool, to
Birmingham; another stretches from Shanghai to Nanjing to
Hangzhou in China. Almost one-
fifth of the entire human population lives in just 40
megaregions throughout the world, and
two-thirds of the world’s economic activity happens in these
places.

Cities that are nowhere near each other are also increasingly
connected through
technology and commerce that allow products, services, and
information to move quickly
across national and continental boundaries, otherwise known as
globalization. Much of this
activity occurs in global cities, major urban areas that serve as
the nodes for the worldwide
network of economic activity.5 As city governments try to
attract global firms and become
centers of international commerce, many urban scholars have
documented a growing divide
26. between the global elite and the city residents who carry out the
service jobs that make the
global economy run.6 As I show later in the chapter, the rise of
globalization goes hand in
hand with the rise of a new form of urban inequality.
The rise of global cities means that we are not only living in an
increasingly urban world,
we are living in a world where cities connect the world
together. But the figures we’ve
presented to you are not sufficient to understand the importance
of cities. A sociological
perspective on cities goes beyond pure description of their size
and growth across the world
and asks how cities change us, change the way we live, and
change the way we interact
with each other.

City life and community life
To write his book Bowling Alone, Robert Putnam analyzed data
from a range of
different surveys asking Americans how they spend their time.7
The title of the book came from
a finding that the number of Americans who enjoyed bowling
had grown over time, but the
number who took part in organized bowling leagues had
dwindled. People across America
were bowling, but they were bowling alone. And it wasn’t just
bowling leagues that were
disappearing. Putnam showed that from the 1960s to the 1990s,
Americans became less likely
to attend religious services, donate blood, vote in national
elections, and volunteer on
parent/teacher associations. He worried that social capital, the
tight connections that people
form with each other through organizations, civic life, and
strong social ties, had withered
28. away.

Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
Page 9
Putnam’s concerns about
what he called “the collapse of
American community” raised
alarms around the country. But his
worries weren’t new. Since the
early days of the discipline,
sociologists have grappled with
the question of whether
community life has eroded in
modern society. In the late 1880s,
German sociologist Ferdinand
Tönnies (pronounced “Tone-ees”)
argued that pre-modern societies
29. were characterized by close ties
between members of the same
families and the same communities.8 As Europe industrialized
and capitalism proliferated,
interactions between people started to change, becoming more
impersonal and
instrumental.
Writing during the same period, Georg Simmel (pronounced
“Zimmel”) observed the
crowded streets of Berlin, Germany, and noted how life in the
bustling city changed the
mindset of those within it.9 To protect themselves from the
chaos and anonymity of urban life,
city dwellers developed a “blasé” outlook, according to Simmel,
which allowed them to
adapt to the barrage of stimuli—sights, sounds, lights, and
people—in the urban environment.
Personal relationships became less important, emotional life
was pushed aside, and the
mental life of the individual became more rational, more
intellectual.
Both of these sociologists shed light on a recurring theme of
urban sociology. The type
30. of community life that existed in tight-knit villages in rural
areas had become less common in
the modern, industrializing world. And many sociologists,
writing from the end of the 19th
Century to the end of the 20th Century, had one primary
explanation: City life had changed us
all.
But what was it about cities that altered the way humans
interact with each other?
Louis Wirth was a sociologist at the University of Chicago in
the 1930s, and it was there that he
wrote one of the classic statements about urbanism, the unique
ways of life in cities.10 Wirth
defined a city as “a large, dense, and permanent settlement of
heterogeneous individuals.”
He focused on these defining characteristics of cities because
large, densely-populated
places with diverse groups of people changed the way that urban
residents interacted with
each other. Because it’s impossible to know everyone in a city,
Wirth wrote, “urbanites interact
with others not as individuals but with others in certain roles.”
The character of our interactions

changes, becoming less intimate and more formulaic. The
diversity of the urban population
leads residents to sort into groups, creating a segmented city
where different groups of
residents interact with a mix of tolerance, indifference, and
occasional conflict.
Wirth, Simmel, and Tönnies offer a somewhat bleak picture of
our urban world, but other
scholars have put forth a more complex, and in some cases more
positive, theory of urbanism.
Claude Fischer built on some of Wirth’s ideas about city life,
but argued that the scale and
density of cities tends to generate a more diverse, extreme set of
lifestyles or subcultures—
groups that hold values and engage in activities that separate
them from wider society—that
are reinforced by establishments and institutions found only in
32. cities.11 Because so many
people are crowded together in one place, small groups of
people can find others who share
the same unique tastes, lifestyles, interests, or passions. And
new clubs, businesses, or sections
of a city are more likely to emerge to cater to these subcultures
within the city.
Fischer’s theory helps explain why the most distinctive, eclectic
types of people and
places are often (though of course not always) found within
cities. For example, decades ago,
when heterosexual norms and culture dominated American
society, sections of Manhattan’s
Chelsea neighborhood, San Francisco’s Castro neighborhood,
and Chicago’s Boystown
neighborhood emerged as areas where each city’s gay and
lesbian population
congregated. It’s not an accident, according to Fischer’s theory,
that the first set of
“gayborhoods” arose in cities, not in the suburbs of Chicago,
the sparsely populated area
north of San Francisco Bay, or the suburban and rural areas of
upstate New York.
Other scholars have countered the idea that community life has
33. eroded, pointing to
the unique ways that people can connect with each other and
create community even
within large, densely-populated cities. One of the most
influential urbanists in modern history is
Jane Jacobs, who observed city life by looking out at the streets
below her apartment in
Manhattan’s Greenwich Village.12 Jacobs argued that city
streets densely populated with
residents and businesses allow a wide range of people to look
out over the street together,
keeping tabs on activity and making sure that vulnerable
residents are safe, while also
absorbing streams of strangers and visitors. While generations
of sociologists have argued that
cities erode community life, Jacobs saw something different; the
city, from her perspective,
facilitated the kind of interaction and communication that
breeds a sense of community—an
urban village.

The liberated community
In July 2011, a magazine asked readers to “flood into lower
Manhattan, set up tents,
kitchens, peaceful barricades and occupy Wall Street.” Two
months later, on September 17th,
hundreds of people heeded the call and gathered in the heart of
the financial district of
Lower Manhattan to protest the rise of inequality in the United
States and the growing
influence of the wealthiest Americans, “the 1%.” That was just
the beginning. What came to
be known as the Occupy movement spread across the country,
bringing thousands of people
together at hundreds of sites and starting a social movement
around the issue of economic
inequality.
How did it all happen so quickly? Facebook is one reason.
Almost 1,500 Occupy
35. Facebook pages emerged, attracting more than 400,000
members. Researchers Sarah Gaby
and Neal Caren analyzed data from all of these pages and
identified the types of Facebook
posts that attracted the most members to the movement.13 The
same features of Facebook
that made it such an expansive, popular social media platform—
photographs of the Occupy
https://pixabay.com/en/cityscape-urban-castro-district-400722/
Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
Page 12
sites, testimonials from people with a unique story, inspirational
quotes from historical figures
like Malcolm X—were also most effective in bringing new
people to Occupy. In other words, a
technology that allowed people to develop an entirely new way
to connect with their friends
and family was used in the exact same way to start a social
movement.
When generations of sociologists and urbanists, from Louis
Wirth to Jane Jacobs, wrote
36. about community life, they typically focused on the people who
are generally nearest to us—
family members, friends, and neighbors. But the “communities”
of protesters who came
together via Facebook complicate this idea of community life.
With the advent of new
communication and transportation technologies, our
“communities” have spread well
beyond where we live.14 Barry Wellman was one of the first
sociologists to notice this; he
argued that the study of community life should focus on social
networks, defined as the
various types of connections that individuals form with other
people, no matter where they’re
located.
Wellman pointed out that sociologists
who saw a decline in community life may
not have noticed the larger social networks
in which individuals are embedded through
home, work, school, religious institutions,
and now online. Community is neither “lost”
nor “saved,” according to Wellman, but
37. rather has been “liberated.” Residents of
cities now form networks that extend across
space, and they create different kinds of
networks of friends, colleagues, family, and
acquaintances who share the same
interests.
As of 2018, Facebook had over 2 billion users. It’s easier than
ever before to reach
thousands of people across the world, and we still don’t quite
know how our expanding
network of potential “friends” has changed the way humans
interact with each other. But
there is good reason to believe that community life is not going
away, even if it is evolving.
Some research has even found that online interactions may
provide new information and
contacts in ways that strengthen our offline social ties.15
Online networks can connect
neighbors to each other, allowing people who may pass each
other on the street without so
much as a nod to communicate and share information about
their building or
38. neighborhood.16
Decades of research make clear that this type of communication
is crucial for
mobilizing groups to take political action, organizing for
neighborhood change, and
facilitating the basic types of supports that are essential when
people face a crisis—whether

it’s a heat wave, an earthquake, a terrorist attack, or the threat
of a local fire station being
shut down. Our networks may be evolving, but the ability to
find a way to connect with those
around us remains as strong as ever.17

migrate?
In the previous section we described how large-scale migration
to industrializing cities of
Europe dominated the attention of European sociologists at the
end of the 1800s; they
wondered how urbanization had changed the nature of
community life. In the United States,
industrialization and urbanization had an added twist: the
40. movement to America’s cities
resulted in a major reshuffling of the entire population and
permanent changes in the form
and layout of our urban neighborhoods.
As cities expanded throughout the country, African Americans
began to move out of
the rural South and into the cities of the Northeast, Midwest,
and West—a demographic shift
known as The Great Migration. From 1900 to 1970, over six
million African Americans left the

Page 14
Deep South and traveled northward to cities that previously had
only small Black populations.
New York City had just over 140,000 African Americans in
1910, but three decades later more
than 660,000 African Americans lived there.18 The population
of African Americans in Detroit
went from just 9,000 in 1910 to almost 169,000 in 1940 and
over 750,000 in 1970.
41. To understand this mass migration that permanently transformed
the country, historian
Isabel Wilkerson took a novel approach. She tracked down
people who were part of this
stream of migrants and sat down and talked to them about their
lives—she carried out an oral
history.19
In her book The Warmth of Other Suns, Wilkerson recounts the
life of George Swanson
Starling, who was forced to leave Florida when his life was
threatened after he tried to
organize for better wages for citrus workers. His migration
story took him up the East Coast to
New York. Ida Mae Brandon Gladney’s story took her from
Mississippi to Chicago, and Robert
Joseph Pershing Foster’s amazing story took him from
Louisiana to California, where he was
finally able to practice freely as a surgeon.

These stories, brought to life through personal narratives, reveal
the incredible injustices
42. that were common in segregated towns and cities in the South,
and the humiliations and
blocked opportunities that led African Americans to leave the
only places their families had
known. In the study of migration, the forces that lead people to
leave a neighborhood, a city,
https://pixabay.com/en/racial-segregation-racism-67692/
Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
Page 15
or even their home country are called push factors. The forces
that draw people to a new
destination are pull factors. The lure of jobs in northern
factories was the primary pull factor for
many African Americans. But they were also drawn by the idea
of living in cities where Black
culture was flourishing, where newspapers like the Chicago
Defender were produced by and
for African Americans, and where they hoped to live freely and
with dignity.20
Wilkerson’s oral history reveals that the “promised land” of the
North didn’t live up to
43. these ideals. Her research on the experience of Black
communities in the North aligns with the
groundbreaking research carried out by African American
sociologists St. Clair Drake and
Horace Cayton before World War II. Just as the eminent
sociologist W.E.B. Du Bois had
rigorously studied the Seventh Ward of Philadelphia decades
earlier, Drake and Cayton
analyzed every dimension of social, political, and economic life
in Chicago’s predominantly
Black South Side in their multi-volume book Black
Metropolis.21 Their work documented the
vibrant community life in a section of the city known as
Bronzeville, but also the challenge of
unrelenting racism faced by Black migrants in their new homes,
and the new forms of urban
poverty and racial conflict that emerged in northern,
midwestern, and western cities
absorbing large numbers of African Americans for the first
time.
Although African Americans had escaped the most brutal forms
of segregation and
racial violence in the South, they met with fierce resistance in
the North as formal and informal
44. steps were taken to maintain rigid boundaries that defined
where Blacks could live. Violence
and intimidation were commonly used to keep Blacks from
moving into White neighborhoods,
along with legal tactics such as restrictive covenants, contracts
that prohibited homeowners in
White neighborhoods from selling or renting their home to a
Black family.22 The racial
segregation that persists today had its roots in the large-scale,
rapid movement of African
Americans to northern cities.
The new immigration
The Great Migration provides a striking example of
urbanization in the United States. But
it also provides insight into the dynamic nature of cities, which
are constantly experiencing
flows of in- and out-migration—both of immigrants and of
people moving from place to place
internally—that can alter the urban landscape completely. The
process by which new
populations are sorted into urban environments was a central
focus of a group of sociologists
at the University of Chicago in the first half of the 20th Century
who came to be known as the
45. Chicago School of Urban Sociology. One of their central
questions was, Why does the city look
the way it does? Why were some neighborhoods landing spots
for new immigrants, while
others were sought out by Americans who have been in the
country for longer periods of
time? Why were shopping centers located in the heart of the
city, while factories were just
outside the city center?
Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
Page 16
Sociologists affiliated with the Chicago School used the city as
their laboratory,
scrutinizing the inner workings of urban life in a rapidly
changing city. Ernest Burgess, one of the
most influential scholars in the Chicago School, analyzed the
slow movement of different
groups across the city’s neighborhoods. He argued that new
immigrants resided in the slums
just outside the downtown business district because it placed
them near other immigrants
46. going through a similar phase of transition and allowed them to
be near the factories that
dominated the economies of cities in the industrial North. As
these new immigrants established
a foothold in the labor market, he argued that they would
“assimilate” into American culture
and gradually drift away from the culture of their ethnic group.
This led them to move outward
to working-class sections of the city, and then further outward
into surrounding areas of the
city that were less densely settled and provided some separation
from the grit, the crowds,
and the slums found in the heart of Chicago.
Burgess’s theory, which suggested that the city filters groups of
people into the
environment that provides the best “fit,” was known as human
ecology. Burgess’s observations
led him to develop an intricate map showing where different
groups clustered within Chicago
and how they moved across areas of the city over time.23

Page 17
Burgess’s model of neighborhood change and migration didn’t
work as well in other
cities as it did in Chicago and quickly became outdated with the
emergence of new
transportation and communication technologies. The model
overlooked how historical
legacies of discrimination in federal housing policy and in the
financial system prevented some
immigrants, and Black Americans, from moving into
neighborhoods outside the central city as
Burgess expected. However, some of his insights remain very
valuable for understanding the
layout of cities today. Burgess focused on the way that
migration shapes the form of
neighborhoods and how they change over time. And part of the
explanation for the form of
urban neighborhoods even today is that groups of people come
to the housing market with
48. different levels of resources, different ideas of what they want
in their neighborhood, and
different roles that they play within the urban environment.
As an example, new immigrants entering a city often move to
communities with a large
number of other immigrants from the same country. Being part
of an ethnic enclave, a section
of a city where the local culture and labor market are dominated
by a single ethnic group,
can provide immigrants a more gradual, smoother transition to a
new country. Immigrants
often rely on social capital—such as information about jobs and
housing—to help establish
themselves in the new city.24 Living within ethnic enclaves can
allow people to share in a
common cultural life, take advantage of tight social networks,
participate in institutions that
facilitate integration, and enjoy greater political influence
because of the concentration of
people with the same racial or ethnic background.
Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
49. Page 18
When Burgess was writing, the new immigrants moving to
Chicago were mostly from Southern and Eastern Europe.
There was no immigration from Asia because immigrant-entry
policies, such as the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act, prohibited
immigration from Asia. However, Mexican immigrants, whose
migration was spurred by the Mexican Revolution on the one
hand and the hope of jobs in Chicago’s railroads and steel
mills on the other, migrated to, and formed ethnic enclaves
in, Chicago. The Mexican-origin population in Chicago grew
after the 1924 Immigration Act, which created numerical
limits based on national origin that suspended immigration
from Southern and Eastern Europe and favored those from
countries considered to be “White,” such as Great Britain and
Germany. The 1924 Immigration Act didn’t restrict Mexican
immigration to the U.S., partly because the powerful
agricultural lobby worried that their labor supply would be cut
off since Asian immigrants, and now Southern and Eastern
50. Europeans, were no longer allowed to enter the country. The
principle threading these racist immigration laws together
was the desire to maintain White racial homogeneity.25
The racist national-origin quotas instituted by the 1924
Immigration Act remained in place until Congress passed the
Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965. Signed by President
Lyndon B. Johnson on Ellis Island at the base of the Statue of
Liberty, the 1965 legislation
created two primary pathways for entry: employment and family
reunification. The Act
opened up immigration from Asia and the Caribbean, but
included restrictive provisions for
Latin America, leading to undocumented migration from the
region.26
Who migrates and why
The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 ushered in major
demographic changes
that continue to shape the racial and ethnic composition of our
country. In 1970, just 5% of the
U.S. population was foreign-born, but now those born outside
the United States account for
almost 14% of the population (Figure 1).27 As of 2017, almost
51. 44.4 million residents of the United
States were born outside of the country. The regions new
immigrants come from have also
shifted since1965. In 1960, 84% of immigrants were from
Europe or Canada. Today, 87% of
immigrants hail from Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean,
Africa, and the Middle East.28 The
largest numbers of new immigrants come from India, China,
Mexico, the Philippines, and El
Salvador. In 2008, Asian immigrants began to outnumber
immigrant arrivals from Latin America

and they now make up the largest share of recent immigrants to
the U.S. Among Latinos, we
have witnessed a “Latino nativity shift,” as over two-thirds of
52. Latinos in the U.S. are native-
born.29 Since 1980, the Black immigrant population has
increased fivefold.30

High.” Pew Research Center
While the majority of immigrants in the U.S. have entered under
the work or family
pathways created by the 1965 Act, about 10.5 million
undocumented people who generally
do not have access to these pathways lived in the U.S. in 2017.
The U.S. undocumented
population (those who entered the country without legal
documentation) is long-settled. More
than two-thirds of undocumented people have lived in the U.S. a
decade or longer;
undocumented people are embedded in our communities and
live, work, and go to school
alongside documented people. Unauthorized people are also
strongly connected to families
53. and U.S. citizens: more than 8 million U.S. citizens live with at
least one family member who is
unauthorized.31
Many observers assume that people migrate simply “for a better
life.” However, in order
to really understand why people forge new lives in new places,
we must consider the push
and pull factors that propel people to move and the social
networks that link individuals and
communities across borders.
Neoclassical economic theorists (who focus on supply and
demand dynamics) argue
that people are pushed out of their home country by low wages
and pulled into another
country by high wages. People will make the decision to
migrate if the benefits outweigh the
costs. This perspective, often referred to as rational choice
theory, assumes that the decision to
migrate is made by individuals acting in their own self-interest.
But think about your own life. Do
parents, siblings, grandparents, or others influence the decisions
you make?

Scholars developed new economic theories of migration to
explain how economic and
social inequality in a city or country can stimulate migration
elsewhere, and they maintain that
the decision to migrate is usually made by collective groups,
like families, not by individuals.
But families are embedded in larger social structures, which is
why scholars also use world
systems theory to explain how the global economy structures
relationships between capitalist
and non-capitalist countries and influences migration. The idea
is that the expansion of
capitalist nations into other countries in search of land, raw
materials, and labor disrupts social,
political, and economic systems. Capitalist exploitation creates
conditions that push people to
move, usually to the country that disrupts social and economic
life in their home country.
55. Patterns of migration tend to continue over time because social
networks link families and
cities across borders.32
Immigration policy
Many of today’s immigration policies revolve around trying to
control who can enter
the United States. While the 1965 Immigration and Nationality
Act opened up authorized
immigration from Asia, the Caribbean, and Africa, the
legislation restricted immigration from
Latin America, leading to an increase in unauthorized migration
from the region.33 Policies
created to reduce unauthorized migration are generally framed
within the rational choice
model because policymakers often mistakenly assume that
people make a cost-benefit
calculation about migration and that if the benefits outweigh the
costs, they will move. The
reality is that current immigration is more complex than a
simple cost-benefit calculation.
Sociologist Douglass Massey and his colleagues have written
extensively about how U.S.
immigration policies seek to raise the costs associated with
unauthorized migration and why
56. they continually fail.34 These policies include militarizing the
U.S.-Mexico border by building
border walls and increasing enforcement; record levels of
deportations; separating refugee
children from their parents; caging children and families in
detention centers; stigmatizing
unauthorized status in the U.S.; and stripping asylum
protections from refugees fleeing violent
conflicts or persecution. These policies have not deterred
unauthorized migration, but they
have resulted in deaths at the U.S.-Mexico border and an
increase in the number of
undocumented youth in the U.S. More recently, these policies
have created a humanitarian
crisis of refugees from Central America fleeing violent
conditions resulting from decades of U.S.
social, economic, and political intervention in the region, as
world systems theory would
predict.35
These policies, especially intensified federal immigration
enforcement, have negative
consequences for individuals, families, and immigran t
communities. By conducting
57. observations and interviews with unauthorized immigrants and
their family members,
sociologists Cecilia Menjívar and Leisy Abrego demonstrated
that immigration enforcement
and criminalizing unauthorized immigrants stirs up fear among
individuals and families, which
Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
Page 21
affects how they interact in institutions —like school and the
workplace—and in city life. They
argue that fear created by harsh immigration enforcement is a
form of legal violence that
can hinder the integration of immigrants and their children into
the country.36

Immigrant integration
Immigration since 1965 has transformed cities across the
country, particularly those
58. near the coasts. Instead of urban neighborhoods that are mostly
African American or
White, global neighborhoods that contain at least three different
racial or ethnic groups
have sprouted up in many of the more diverse U.S. cities.37
And immigrants and their
descendants are increasingly moving into new destinations in
the South and Midwest.
America’s growing racial and ethnic diversity makes the
question of immigrant
integration—the process by which immigrants and their
descendants integrate into
American life—of great importance.
Burgess and colleagues used the term “assimilation” to discuss
the process by which
immigrants incorporate into society. However, there is an
underlying ethnocentric bias to the
idea of assimilation which, in America, upholds whiteness as
the cultural model by which
immigrants and their children should be judged. Today, scholars
write about the
multidimensional process by which immigrants become
integrated into American culture and
59. Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
Page 22
institutions. A recent report by the National Academy of
Sciences, Engineering and Medicine,
led by sociology professor Mary Waters, asserts that
“Integration is a twofold process that
depends on the participation of immigrants and their
descendants in major social institutions
such as schools and the labor market, as well as their social
acceptance by other
Americans.”38
Immigration researchers have demonstrated a range of possible
integration paths that
immigrants and their descendants may take after they arrive in
the United States.39 The
traditional idea of assimilation into the cultural and economic
institutions of the dominant
racial group is one path, but other immigrants have experienced
downward mobility due to
discrimination, punitive immigration policies, and economic
barriers, and have integrated into
the neighborhoods of the urban poor. Others have charted a new
60. path, partially experiencing
structural integration while remaining in ethnic enclaves and
maintaining strong cultural ties to
their communities of origin. Other immigrants and their
descendants integrate into the racial
and ethnic minority middle class.40
Overall, more than a quarter of people living in the U.S. today
are immigrants—what
scholars refer to as the first generation—or are the U.S.-born
children of immigrants—the
second generation. Given current trends, immigrants and their
children will account for more
than 88% of U.S. population growth by 2065.41 This means that
today’s new immigrants and
their descendants are especially important for the social,
economic, cultural, and political
vibrancy of American cities.

CONCENTRATED POVERTY AND RACIAL SEGREGATION
oblems arise in high-poverty neighborhoods?
Earlier in the chapter we discussed some of the core ideas of the
Chicago School of
urban sociology. One idea was that the landscape of cities like
Chicago resulted from a
62. process in which groups of people moved through the city and
found the environments that
provided the best fit. The theories of scholars like Edward
Burgess can give the impression that
the layout, form, and composition of city neighborhoods is like
an ecosystem or a forest, that it
is in some sense “natural.” But is this true?
Writing in the mid-1980s, John Logan, Harvey Molotch, and a
group of sociologists,
planners, and geographers transformed the way social scientists
thought about the city. In
their book Urban Fortunes, Logan and Molotch observed that
the layout of cities was anything
but natural—in fact, it was the result of highly-contested
conflicts where different groups took
part in political battles to determine how city resources would
be used, which neighborhoods
would receive investments, and where development was
allowed.42 To understand the form of
cities, they argued, we need to focus on power, politics, and
profit.
Logan and Molotch documented how local government officials,
real estate
63. developers, private business interests, and leaders of cultural
institutions (such as museums)
worked together to increase the size of city populations and
expand the level of economic
activity taking place within the city. They referred to this group
of actors as a growth machine.
City growth brings more customers for retailers, more housing
demand for real estate
developers, more workers for business owners, more fans for
local sports teams, and more
taxes and clout for government representatives.
The layout of cities isn’t driven purely by migration into and
out of a city, according to
this perspective, but by the set of policies and investments made
in the pursuit of growth.
Coalitions of economic, political, and cultural elites work
together to regulate land use and
local tax rates, to selectively distribute public services like
policing and road maintenance,
and to invest in some communities and not others, with the
overarching goal of attracting
new populations and expanding economic activity.
64. Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
Page 24
These efforts can transform entire sections of cities. The
riverfront in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania, provides an example. In Pittsburgh, where the
Allegheny and Monongahela
Rivers meet to form the Ohio River, the riverfront had long
been little more than industrial
wasteland cut off from any form of public use. A task force
made up of CEOs, foundation
presidents, a newspaper editor, and the owners of the Pirates
and the Steelers—the
prototypical members of the growth machine—began to plan a
transformation of the
riverfront.43
Years later, the area has two shiny new stadiums that are part of
a larger entertainment
district, and acres of parkland linking the neighborhoods of the
city to the riverfront. And with
new urban amenities come new populations. One of the most
controversial dimensions of
neighborhood change is gentrification, defined as a shift in the
population of a community
65. bringing in new residents who are more affluent or more
educated—and sometimes from a
different racial or ethnic group—than the original residents.44
Gentrification is so controversial
mainly because it is so visible. As new faces appear in a
community, concerns about rising
rents and displacement of original residents—generally people
of color—who can’t pay more
may surface, and the character and culture of a neighborhood
can transform as well.
The role of public policy
makers is often overlooked in
discussions of gentrification. In
Pittsburgh, for instance, enormous
public investments in the riverfront
paved the way for a new group of
residents to gentrify the area.45 The
resulting redevelopment of
Pittsburgh’s riverfront is seen by some
as an urban success story, a tale of
66. an industrial wasteland come back to
life. After all, a walk along the river on
a sunny day wasn’t possible just
decades ago. But skeptics would
argue that the hundreds of millions of dollars spent by taxpayers
to redevelop the waterfront
and build those new stadiums might have been spent more
wisely in the city’s poor,
segregated neighborhoods that have never received similar
investments. Perhaps the owners
of two of the city’s premier sports teams didn’t need to be
subsidized by the citizens of
Pennsylvania.
No matter which view you hold, the lesson is that the look of
our cities isn’t natural at all,
but rather is the product of long-term battles where politics and
profits are as important as
ideas and urban design. And in many cases, the neighborhoods
that draw the most visitors

Concentrated poverty
In the Culture chapter, you learned about Elijah Anderson’s
book Code of the Street, a
classic ethnographic study of life in Philadelphia’s ghetto in the
1990s—when violent crime in the
United States reached unprecedented levels.46 Anderson
described a social world where the
threat of violence loomed in the background at all times and
structured everyday interactions.
Children were forced to adapt to an informal set of rules about
how to act in public spaces to
avoid being victimized while still maintaining status on the
street. Some embraced the idea that
they could gain respect only by accepting the possibility of
death at any moment. Others lived
in fear, trying to find ways to survive while minimizing the
chance of being jumped or shot. The
68. brutal reality of life in the poor, segregated neighborhoods of
Philadelphia was portrayed vividly
due to Anderson’s years of work on the streets of the city, spent
trying to understand how
residents made sense of their neighborhoods and their own
lives.
Sociologist William Julius Wilson helped explain how
Philadelphia’s neighborhoods had
reached that point. In The Truly Disadvantaged, Wilson became
the first scholar to observe,
and document, how urban poverty had transformed since the
1950s.47 Manufacturing jobs
that used to be abundant in America’s major central cities
disappeared as factories closed
down or moved to the suburbs. As stable employment became
less common, joblessness rose.
African American men, in particular, experienced soaring rates
of unemployment. Without the
ability to support a family, use of welfare grew, along with the
number of families headed by
single women.
At the same time, central city neighborhoods began to fall apart.
Taking advantage of
69. new civil rights that made discrimination in the housing market
illegal, middle-class Black
families began to leave the traditional Black ghettos found in
most northeastern and
midwestern cities. They left behind central city neighborhoods
where residents were poor and
jobless, where institutions like the schools and the church
slowly deteriorated, and where
violent crime increased. They left behind neighborhoods like
those that Elijah Anderson
documented in Code of the Street.
Wilson’s concerns about concentrated poverty, the growth in the
number of urban
neighborhoods with extremely high rates of poverty, changed
the way we understand poverty
in America. Although the poverty rate has remained fairly
steady over the past several
decades, the way poverty is spread across communities has
changed dramatically. The
number of Americans living in extremely poor neighborhoods
rose from about 4 million in 1970
to almost 14 million by 2013.48
But it’s not just poverty that has become more concentrated.
Economic segregation,
70. defined as the degree to which the poor live apart from the rich,
has risen steadily. Since 1970,
Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
Page 26
the number of American families living in either extremely poor
or extremely affluent
neighborhoods has risen from 12% to 34%.49 Since 2000, the
number of people living in gated
communities has risen by 50%. At both the top and the bottom
of the housing market, then,
we find a growing number of neighborhoods where the rich or
the poor are isolated from the
rest of the population.

Racial segregation
While William Julius Wilson drew the nation’s attention to the
concentration of urban
poverty, Douglas Massey and Nancy Denton argued that the
71. changes he documented
wouldn’t have been possible without the persistence of racial
segregation in urban
neighborhoods. In their book American Apartheid, the two
researchers showed that despite
major advances in civil rights in the 1960s, African Americans
continued to live in
neighborhoods that were separate from Whites and isolated from
communities that contained
higher-quality schools, well-maintained parks, and greater
economic opportunities.50 Racial
segregation in urban neighborhoods was the “lynchpin” for
racial inequality, they claimed.
Residential segregation is the degree to which different
segments of the population,
typically classified by race, ethnicity, or social class, live apart
from each other in separate
communities. How can we measure how much residential
segregation there is and how it has
changed over time? Perhaps the best way to understand
segregation is to see it. Figure 2
shows the area surrounding Washington, D.C.51 Each dot on the
map represents one person,
with different colors representing different racial and ethnic
72. backgrounds. The map shows the
nation’s capital as a diverse mosaic of many different people
living together, with African
American (green dots) and Latino/a (yellow dots) residents
concentrated on the east side of
Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
Page 27
the city, Whites (blue dots) on the west side of the city and the
northwest suburbs, and a large
Asian population (red dots) in the Virginia suburbs to the west.
Although the area around D.C.
is remarkably diverse, the wide swaths of red, blue, green, and
yellow reveal how members of
the same groups cluster together in communities within the city.
By some measures,
Washington, D.C., is one of the most segregated urban areas in
the country.

Researchers studying residential segregation have developed
several ways to measure
how different groups are sorted among the neighborhoods of a
city. The most common
measure describes how evenly different groups are spread
across neighborhoods. Imagine a
hypothetical city in which 75% of the population is White and
25% is Black. If the
neighborhoods of this city were perfectly integrated, we’d
expect 75% of the residents of
every neighborhood would be White and 25% would be Black.
In this scenario, Black and
White residents are perfectly spread across the city’s
neighborhoods. If, on the other hand,
every neighborhood in the city was either 100% White or 100%
Black, then the city would be
completely segregated.
Among cities with at least 100,000 residents, Chicago, New
York, and Miami have the
highest levels of segregation between Black and White
Americans, according to this
74. measure.52 In Chicago, 83% of the White or Black residents of
the city would have to move to a
different neighborhood for the city to be perfectly integrated.
Oakland, New York, and Los
Angeles have the highest levels of segregation between Latinos
and Whites.

Another common measure identifies the degree to which a
particular group is isolated
from all other groups by capturing the average percentage of
neighbors who are of the same
racial background. In Detroit, which has the highest level of
77. segregation according to this
measure, the average Black resident of the city lives in a
neighborhood that is 92% Black.
We have already covered the ways that Whites maintained
racially segregated
neighborhoods during the first half of the 20th Centur y, when
hundreds of thousands of African
Americans moved north. But when the Fair Housing Act was
passed in 1968, racial
discrimination in housing and lending markets became illegal
for the first time in U.S. history.
Why did racial segregation continue, and even worsen, through
the 1980s?
One major part of the answer is that White Americans began to
leave central city
neighborhoods and move to new suburban communities, a
process known as white flight.
Many left because advances in civil rights meant that
neighborhoods and schools could no
longer be legally segregated by race; White families would soon
have to share their
Immigration and Urbanization (Fall 2021)
78. Page 29
communities with African American families and send their kids
to the same schools. As Massey
and Denton document in American Apartheid, Whites were able
to buy homes in the suburbs
because of a federal policy that provided mortgages to millions
of Americans, supporting
homeownership and paving the way for the development of new
suburban communities.53
One reason most suburbs became almost entirely White is that
the mortgages provided
by the federal government were almost never given to African
Americans. When the
government entered the mortgage industry, official policies
determined how risky a loan was
based in part on the racial and ethnic composition of the
community. Neighborhoods that
had more non-White residents were much more likely to be
classified as risky. Redlining was
the practice of taking a map of a city and outlining in red the
sections that were considered
high risk, and then rejecting loan applications from people
living in those areas. This meant
79. that people living in largely Black or mixed-race neighborhoods
were usually ineligible for
federal loans. This practice spread throughout the mortgage
industry, and effectively meant
that the large-scale exodus to America’s suburbs was only
possible for Whites.
The impacts of these policies still shape the development of
cities and suburbs,
although there are some signs of change. Suburbs continue to
grow more quickly than any
other type of community in the United States, and their
boundaries have extended farther out
in a process called suburban sprawl. Although urbanists have
long critiqued the “boring”
suburban environment, noted the misery of long commutes, and
highlighted the
environmental damage caused by sprawl, Americans are still
moving outward. The desire for
space, and for a home of our own, drives the expanding
landscape of America’s cities and
suburbs.
Though many cities remain highly segregated by race, the
overall level of racial
segregation has fallen steadily since the 1980s. Just over 50
80. years ago, one out of every five
White Americans lived exclusively with other White Americans.
By 2010, neighborhoods that
are entirely White were almost extinct. Economists Jacob
Vigdor and Edward Glaeser
analyzed racial segregation over the entire 21st Century and
came to a surprising, optimistic
conclusion: racial segregation has declined to the lowest levels
in 50 years.54 Many different
racial and ethnic groups have moved to the suburbs and made
them more diverse than they
used to be.
Although this is welcome news, problems remain. While the
segregation of Black
Americans from Whites has declined over time, the level of
segregation for Latinos has
remained stable or risen slightly.55 And despite the decline in
racial segregation, Black
Americans continue to live in neighborhoods that are quite
different from those where Whites
live. For instance, high-income Black families live in
neighborhoods that are more
disadvantaged, and just as poor, as the areas where White
families with very low incomes
81. live.56 Despite the positive change that has taken place, urban
inequality has not gone away.

it look
like?
We live in an urban world, but the future of that urban world is
uncertain. When COVID-
19 first began to spread in the United States in March of 2020,
many of our major cities shut
down. Wealthy residents of Manhattan fled to second homes
outside the city, office spaces
closed, and public life in New York City slowed to a halt.57
Millions of workers who were able to
do most of their job online began working remotely; commuter
rail lines and subway cars were
empty. For a long period in 2020, cities no longer seemed like
vibrant areas where ideas
sprouted and culture proliferated. Cities seemed like desolate
areas where the poor were
vulnerable to the ravages of the virus, and the rich were
nowhere to be found. New York City
began to come back to life in 2021, but the question remains:
What will our urban future look
like?
83. Richard Florida is an intellectual disciple of Jane Jacobs, an
urbanist who has sung the
praises of city life for his entire career. In 2002, he publi shed
The Rise of the Creative Class,
which argued that creativity is now the crucial ingredient for
economic growth, and that the

Page 31
most diverse, tolerant, eclectic cities will attract the most
creative people.58 His vision led cities
all over the country to try to develop the amenities, walkable
streets, cafes, and welcoming
feel that would bring artists, professors, and engineers.
There was one big problem with Florida’s argument: as he
himself documented in
studies over the past several years, the most creative cities in
the country are also some of the
most unequal.59 And it’s not a coincidence. Florida and his
colleagues showed that the most
84. innovative, creative cities work extremely well for workers who
have the skills for the new
knowledge economy, but they don’t work particularly well for
less-skilled workers struggling to
survive as housing prices and rents skyrocket.
His findings present urbanists with a dilemma. Economists like
Enrico Moretti and Edward
Glaeser show that cities are breeding grounds for innovation
and job creation, places where
talent and ideas cluster together.60 But they’re also settings for
the most extreme, sometimes
brutal, inequality. As cities continue to grow, and as migration
increases around the globe,
cities become linked together in networks that extend across the
planet, making more visible
the tensions of our new unequal urban world.
Beginning in 2011, the Occupy movement brought attention to
the rise of American
inequality in hundreds of cities. In the summer of 2014, protests
in New York; Ferguson, Missouri;
Baltimore; and dozens of other cities brought attention to urban
police departments that have
focused the most aggressive, sometimes lethal, forms of
85. policing on African American
communities. When George Floyd was killed by a police officer
in Minneapolis in May of 2020,
anger directed toward police violence and racial injustice
bubbled over, leading to protests
and unrest in hundreds of cities.
Some observers suggest that these
different types of protests are related. As
urban inequality has grown, critics like Mike
Davis argue that cities have become places
where coalitions of politicians, real estate
developers, and property holders have
adopted policies of aggressive policing and
rigid land use regulations designed to
create urban communities of extreme
wealth that are shielded from the rest of the
city. Davis points to Los Angeles as a
“fortress of exclusion,” where the glitzy,
affluent sections of the city are protected
86. and fortified and the run-down, poor sections of the city are
excluded, abandoned, and
punished.61 This vision of city life bears little resemblance to
the optimistic view of urban
prosperity put forth by Glaeser and Moretti.

Maybe they’re all right. In his most recent book, The New
Urban Crisis, Richard Florida
argues that cities continue to be the ideal sites for innovation
and sustainable growth, but
urban policy must change in order to deal with the rising
problem of inequality. The next city
must continue to inspire innovation, but it also must be
inclusive.
His assessment is relevant
beyond the United States. As
globalization accelerates and more
87. firms conduct business that crosses
national borders, multinational
institutions play larger roles in
influencing urban policy, often
exacerbating inequality. At the
same time, as more of the world’s
population migrates to cities,
hundreds of millions of people have
moved into slums and shantytowns
at the periphery of the world’s cities.
“The same divides and disparities
that we see in America’s cities and urban areas,” Florida
observes, “are magnified many times
over at the global scale.”
Cities are seen by some as the solution to long-term challenges
of climate change and
economic growth, and by others as the sites of a new form of
extreme, global inequality. Our
hope is that when you come across conflicting perspectives on
the nature of city life, you
88. won’t automatically adopt any particular perspective – instead,
you will think like a social
scientist and ask the series of questions that we presented at the
start of the chapter: Do I
believe the ideas I’m reading? What kind of evidence would be
more convincing? If I wanted
to answer this question, how would I do so?

INTRODUCTION
In August 2017, white supremacists and neo-Nazis held a rally
in Charlottesville, Virginia.
This Unite the Right Rally was held to promote racist, white
separatist ideologies and to protest
the removal of a statue of Confederate general Robert E. Lee.
At this time, support for the
Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement in the United States was
at -5%, meaning more Americans
disapproved of BLM than approved of it.1 While BLM was
well-supported among Black
Americans at this time, it was rare to see any White public
figure, news agency, social media
platform, or corporation openly support the movement.
Now consider more recent events. Since 2017, public opinion
has changed fairly
rapidly. After the deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor,
and George Floyd, as well as
103. data showing the health effects of COVID-19 were far worse for
African Americans than other
groups in the U.S., support for Black Lives Matter grew even
more sharply. As mass protests
occurred around the country, support for BLM grew among
Americans — even White
Americans — while opposition fell. Individuals, public figures,
and corporations from Coca-
Cola to Netflix to Amazon to even Gushers candy expressed
public support for Black Lives
Matter. Many Confederate monuments are being removed.2 The
Mississippi legislature voted
to change their state flag to remove the Confederate symbol
from it.3 Of course, some
Americans always supported the BLM movement. But for many,
voicing public support for BLM
changed from being against the norm, to being the norm.
Figure 1: Public Opinion of the Black Lives Matter Movement
Why? What makes any behavior deviant or not? And what about
criminal behavior? Is
there some objective line for normative versus deviant versus
criminal behavior? Does it
104. depend upon the number of people who engage in it? Or the
written law where you live?
Does it depend on where—or when—you live?

Deviance, Crime, and Violence (Fall 2021)
105. Page 5
We’ll investigate these questions in this chapter. We start with
the concept of deviance,
or behaviors that violate social norms. We’ll discuss who
violates societal rules, under what
circumstances, and how.
We then move from deviance to the issue of crime, with a
specific focus on one form of
deviance and crime: violence. We'll trace the history of how
society has explained and
responded to criminal behavior and provide a sociological
perspective on crime and
violence. In the conclusion, we move from the abstract to the
concrete: How has violence
changed over time, and what can be done to prevent it?
INTERPRETING DEVIANCE
isn’t?
eties attempt to enforce certain behaviors among
members?
106. What does it mean to be deviant?
In 2007, the majority of Americans said they opposed
same-sex marriage. Many states passed gay marriage
bans, and it was only fully legal in one state
(Massachusetts). But since then, public opinion has
moved toward acceptance. One way we can see this is
in positive depictions of gay and lesbian characters,
which have proliferated in the media since 2007. By
2013, over three-quarters of Americans said that a family
member, friend, or coworker had come out to them.4 In
2015, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that all states must
recognize same-sex marriages. And in the last decade,
public opinion has more than reversed itself: Americans
now favor allowing gay marriage two-to-one.5
We can reasonably say that public opinion about
same-sex marriage is a reflection of public opinion about
gay people. That means for some people in the U.S., being
gay used to be considered deviant, but now isn’t. The point
107. here is that understandings of
deviant behavior rely on social agreement. So what does it mean
to be deviant?

Deviance, Crime, and Violence (Fall 2021)
Page 6
As we noted in the introduction, deviance refers to behaviors
that violate social norms,
or common expectations for behavior. Norms are connected to
the values and beliefs of the
culture in which they exist. In some cultures it’s considered too
informal to remove your shoes
when entering someone’s house. In others, it’s considered
offensive not to remove them.
Norms vary in importance; some violations are extremely
serious, others go unnoticed.
Sociologist William Graham Sumner developed a typology that
108. can help us understand
different types of norms. Folkways are the least serious norms.
They mainly refer to customs,
traditions, and etiquette. Social sanctions for violating them are
also the least severe.6 Imagine
someone eating a Snickers bar with a knife and fork, as in the
Seinfeld episode “The Pledge
Drive” (search YouTube for a clip). While we might think it’s
odd for someone to eat a Snickers
this way, there aren’t likely to be any long-term consequences if
someone does so.
Mores (pronounced MORE-ays) are more seriously protected
norms. They reflect a
deeper sense of morals and values, and sanctions for violating
them are often much stronger.7
Take the example of Amy Robertson, a Kansas high school
principal who invented the name
of a fake university and used it on her resume. When the high
school newspaper researched
her for a story and discovered she had lied about her
credentials, Robertson resigned in
shame. Finally, laws represent the most highly codified level of
norm; they are usually written
down, and there are serious consequences if you don’t follow
109. them. These norms are
important enough that the community agrees that violating them
requires binding
punishment. We’ll cover laws in more depth in the second half
of the chapter.
Social control, stigma , and labeling
A common fashion tip is that horizontal stripes should only be
worn by thin people, since
they make people look wider. There are a lot of fashion “dos”
and “don’ts” based on body
shape and size. But there’s also a burgeoning “fatshionista”
movement for fat people who
want to explicitly break rules of what you “can” and “can’t”
wear. One example is the
attention recording artist Lizzo has gotten for her body. She
routinely wears bodysuits onstage,
posts nude photos of herself on social media, and refuses to
apologize for her body, which has
drawn controversy. Also controversial was a TikTok video
montage she posted of herself
working out, with a voiceover that said in part, “So, I've been
working out consistently for the
last five years. It may come as a surprise to some of y'all that
I'm not working out to have your
110. ideal body type. I'm working out to have my ideal body type.”
Rules may be made to be broken, but no one can deny they
exist. Rules govern what
we can and can’t do, what we can and can’t say, what we can
and can’t wear. But we
might ask, says who? Who makes the rules? And who enforces
them?
Deviance, Crime, and Violence (Fall 2021)
Page 7
Most rules aren’t enforced through the formal legal system,
but rather through informal social control, or the ways
societies try to influence members’ behavior to maintain
social order. Societies can exert this social control in many
ways. One is through moral panics – over-heated, short-lived
periods of intense social concern over an issue.8 Sociologist
Howard S. Becker argued that in a moral panic, moral
entrepreneurs push for increased awareness of and concern
over an issue.9 There’s usually heightened social concern
111. over it, increased hostility toward those believed to be
responsible, and some degree of agreement over both the
problem and who’s responsible.10 In addition, moral panics
burn hot, but quick. There is usually outsized concern over the
problem, given its actual threat to society, and as a result,
the concern usually passes.11
One recent example of a moral panic occurred in
2013, when mass media outlets began covering the then-
new app Snapchat. Because snaps disappeared after a
certain amount of time, moral entrepreneurs raised concern
that it could be used as a “sexting app.” To these
entrepreneurs, Snapchat typified what they called “sexting
culture.” News stories routinely shared instances of teens
sending and receiving (and screen-shotting) lurid images.
Stories even circulated about teenagers who were charged with
child pornography for
sending nude images of themselves. In reality, very few teens
actually sext; the number is
probably around 7%.12 Eventually, the sexting aspect of
112. Snapchat received less and less
coverage. This moral panic burned hot, but burned out quickly.
Despite the panicked nature of sexting coverage, it’s important
to acknowledge that
some teens have suffered after sending nude images of
themselves over the internet. Some
teens caught sexting had to put themselves on a sex-offender
registry, a designation that
sticks literally for life and can impact where people can live or
what jobs they can get.13 In the
language of sociologist Erving Goffman, those teens bear social
stigma. Stigma occurs when
some characteristic of an individual or group is seen as inferior
or undesirable and leads to
social rejection.14
Fatshionistas like to break
societal fashion rules.

Which attributes are stigmatized varies
greatly by context. For instance, in Mauritania,
fatness is so admired in women that little girls are
force-fed so they gain weight.15 But in modern
American culture, obesity is so stigmatized that
people may make sure to eat only “healthy”
foods in public, or pay for expensive weight-loss
bootcamps. After years of trying to “cover” their
stigma, some fat people even feel the need to
“come out” to their friends and family.16 “Coming
out” for fat people isn’t a simple declaration of
their weight; it’s a “refusal to cover.”17 As
Kathleen Lebesco writes, coming out as fat is making a public
declaration of “choosing to no
longer pass as on-the-way-to thin,” and acknowledging their
stigmatized status.18
The reaction to our behavior can change the way we see
ourselves and our identity,
possibly even reinforcing the behavior. Labeling theory argues
114. that deviance isn’t really about
the act itself, but is negotiated socially through reactions to the
act.19 When someone is
labeled as an “outsider,” they are treated differently. Smoking
marijuana may not change
someone much, but being labeled a pothead may shift how a
person is treated and how she
sees herself.20 Selling drugs happens in almost every city and
town across the U.S., but in some
communities the police more actively target drug distribution,
prosecutors more aggressively
punish offenders, and the criminal justice system delivers
harsher sentences. Even if the
behavior is the same in a wealthy suburb and a poor city
neighborhood, the treatment of the
behavior may lead to very different consequences.
Taking all of this into account, how do we determine what is
deviant? The key
sociological point is that in any society, deviance is a
relationship between individuals and
larger social landscapes. As morality shifts (and it always
does), enforcement of norms shifts,
too.

116. do some people engage in deviance, but others don’t?
On July 15, 1974, a Florida television morning-show host
named Christine Chubbuck
decided to start her broadcast of Suncoast Digest with footage
of a shooting that occurred at
a restaurant the previous night.21 When the film footage
wouldn’t roll, she smiled strangely. She
looked down at her desk and read: “In keeping with Channel
40’s policy of bringing you the
latest in blood and guts—and in living color—you are going to
see another first: attempted
suicide.” She then pulled a .38 caliber revolver from under her
desk and shot herself in the
back of the head.22 Christine Chubbuck killed herself on live
television.
Why did she do it? According to news reports, she was
extremely depressed.23 But they
also reported that it was more complicated than that. She didn’t
have any friends or romantic
partners.24 She was socially awkward and had trouble
connecting with others. She felt that the
fact that she was a 29-year-old virgin reflected poorly on her as
