Floyd was handcuffed, compliant, and eventually unresponsive, and Chauvin maintained the “hold” even

- [No Shock or Awe About ‘Acting’ Latinx](http://criticalsociology.org/no-shock-or-awe-about-acting-latinx/) - by Nicole Trujillo-Pagán On Monday evening, I saw an unsurprising post on Latino Rebels about a video where a self-defined “ethnically ambiguous” woman is encouraged by her acting coach to change her name and “be Latin.” Surprisingly, I’m not the only one (beside her) who found the advice disturbing. I’m confused the post merited mention at all.
- [Left/Radical Publication Outlets](http://criticalsociology.org/left-radical-publication-outlets/) - Some say the election of Donald Trump, the advances of right-wing parties in Europe, the increasingly reactionary governments around the world, all reflect the rise of anti-liberal, anti-democratic tendencies worldwide. In part, this is a response to the endless onslaught on working people everywhere of neoliberalism and the ravages of Financial Capital. It is important

Steps Toward A Constructive Liberal-Left Alliance G. William Domhoff Department of Sociology University of California, Santa Cruz Posted: January, 2018 ABSTRACT This document suggests possible steps that might make it possible for liberals and leftists to work together on economic programs and thereby have more success.

His research interests include the political economy of neoliberalism, industrial policy, alternative macroeconomic policies, and the labour theory of value and its applications. The certainties that used to hold neoliberalism together are melting into the air: the common sense of the

What to do now.](http://criticalsociology.org/trumps-america-cannot-stand-what-to-do-now/) - Yale historian and Holocaust expert Timothy Snyder wrote: "Americans are no wiser than the Europeans who saw democracy yield to fascism, Nazism, or communism. Our one advantage is that we might learn from their experience. Now is a good time to do so." Snyder's a member of the Council on Foreign Relations (which includes former

Rising tuition rates to make up for declining public sector support, increasing class size, a greater reliance on precarious employment of adjunct faculty, and administrations that take an ever greater share
- [Volume 42 Issue 6: Marx, Marxism and Human Rights](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-42-issue-5-marx-marxism-and-human-rights/) - We live in strange, almost unbelievable, and certainly scary time. In a scene right out of the 1931 film Frankenstein, 70,000 Poles brandishing torches marched in protest of immigrants in Poland. Demonstrations like this are repeated in Germany, France, and much of Western Europe as rightwing (some say fascist) parties witness increasing support in local and even national
- [Volume 42, Issue 2: Junk Freedom](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-42-issue-2-junk-freedom/) - These days, the truth is hard to find. As social scientists, we collect and produce data to provide tools to describe the world as it is. We apply theory to help marshal facts as evidence for interpreting how the world got this way. And if we lean towards revolutionary historical materialism, we brush our work against the grain

Michigan, the Great Lakes state, a state with 3288 miles of coastline, a state within which there are almost 63,000 lakes of all sizes, with 98 lakes over 1000 acres and 10 lakes over 10,000 acres (for reference, that is over 15 sq. mi. or 40 sq. km), a state
- [Volume 42, Issue 1: Class Politics and the Reactionary Electorate](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-42-issue-1-class-politics-and-the-reactionary-electorate/) - The recent election in Turkey resulted in a failure of left parties to unseat the ruling AKP, thought to be weak on the economy, as a result of its threat to personal freedom, and mired in corruption but it turned that campaign into one about security concerns to win an outright majority. While the Scottish National Party saw

The print media and 24-hr news networks

A major

The less often one experiences the police on a daily basis, the
- [Volume 41, Issue 1: Western Societies and Islam](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-41-issue-1-western-societies-and-islam/) - It is fair to say that the history of Europe, and by extension the United States, in relation to Islamic regions has been one characterized by violence and misunderstanding. By the end of the 8th century a vast empire from India to the east, spreading across the Middle East, North Africa and into Spain, consolidated Islamic rule. By
- [Volume 40, Issue 6: Dangerous Times](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-40-issue-6-dangerous-times/) - Well into the middle of the second decade of the 21st Century, I wonder if we are living in a time warp. As I write, Israel is once again involved in a ground war in Gaza resulting in the death of thousands on the ground, though increasingly the Israelis are using a page out of the US
- [Volume 40, Issue 5: The Legacy of Debt](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-40-issue-5-the-legacy-of-debt/) - Readers of this journal are familiar with the nature of consumer debt, and the role it played in destroying much of the equity of middle class families after the housing crisis caused by the financial meltdown of 2008 and the collapse of real estate prices. Starting in the late 1970s, to make up for stagnant real wages while
- [Paroxysm of Capitalism](http://criticalsociology.org/paroxysm-of-capitalism/) - It is perhaps fitting, at this time of year, to reflect both on how capitalism shapes society, and on the state of society (and here I mean the US as the heartland of neoliberal capitalism) under capitalism. We are inundated with offers of merchandise as we are asked to celebrate a holiday that commemorates charity
- [Is Marxism dead?](http://criticalsociology.org/is-marxism-dead/) - At the turn of the century, writers like Mary Shelly and Bram Stoker created monsters that reflected the times in which they lived, monsters that were either constructs of the new scientific age, or the undead sucking the very life-blood of people to survive and create the new race of non-humans. These reflected the anxieties
- [Volume 40, Issue 3: Considerations on Submitting and Getting Published](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-40-issue-3-considerations-on-submitting-and-getting-published/) - Over the past decade, as a result of the economic crash in 2008 and the greater awareness of inequality through the efforts of the Occupy Movement, there is an increasing interest in critical sociological analysis. At the same time, Critical Sociology introduced a Latin American and Caribbean initiative, then an Africa initiative, and most recently a Middle East

A native of the Bronx, New York and the child of Puerto

- [Volume 36, Issue 3: The Glocal Crisis and the Politics of Change](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-36-issue-3-the-glocal-crisis-and-the-politics-of-change/) - The term ‘glocal’ seems to have originated in business circles, often attributed to the Japanese business practice of expanding global enterprise by focusing on local conditions. Of late it also comes to mean how local actors can organize activities in the locality to counter the effects of globalization on economic and social vitality. Some may
- [Volume 36, Issue 4: A Political Economy of Knowledge Production](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-36-issue-4-a-political-economy-of-knowledge-production/) - In his farewell address on January 17, 1961 outgoing President Eisenhower coined the now well worn phrase “military industrial complex” in his warning that there is a danger in the confluence of the government’s military establishment and a growing industrial based serving those interests. Specifically, he cautioned that “(i)n the councils of govern- ment, we

- [Volume 36, Issue 6: Government, Governing, and Governance](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-36-issue-6-government-governing-and-governance/) - Government: the office, authority or function of governing. Governing: having control or rule over oneself. Governance: the activity of governing. Accordingly, governance is a set of decisions and processes made to reflect social expectations through the manage- ment or leadership of the government (by extension, under liberal democratic ideals, the will of ‘the people’ as
- [Volume 37, Issue 1: Capitalism’s Shell Game](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-37-issue-1-capitalisms-shell-game/) - We are inundated almost daily with word that the economy remains sluggish, that we may be in for a double dip recession, that there is a worry about a deflation, that the economy is barely limping along, that unemployment rates will remain high, that unemployed workers over 55 may never find a job that pays
- [Volume 37, Issue 2: Return to Culture Wars and  the Politics of Culture](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-37-issue-2-return-to-culture-wars-and-the-politics-of-culture/) - The last century ended in a decade of relative prosperity, a generally strong economy, and the ability of the working classes (indeed most people) to mask the fact that real wages had remained more or less stagnant for almost 30 years through access to seemingly unlimited credit sustaining ever growing levels of consumption. Consumption is

In the midst of what everyone routinely refers to as a major economic crisis, with the unemployment rate hovering near 10 percent and ever more people leave the ranks of the unemployed discouraged and resigned to never finding another job, and when fis- cal austerity is the word of

Conservative Republicans, many under the banner of the Tea Party, have captured the US House of Representatives and promise to correct the course this country has taken. Echoing the actions of the coalition government in the UK, these members of Congress announced an
- [Volume 37, Issue 5: The Assault on Workers’ Rights](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-37-issue/) - The November 2010 election in the USA resulted in a wave of conservative candidates winning in local and national contests, and taking office in January 2011. Most analysts argued that this election result was due to a combination of typically small voter turnout for by-elections, a strong turnout by zealous advocates of the now well known

At the time, Europe’s workers were constantly organizing and pushing for greater participation and a share of the economic benefits of the Industrial Revolution, joining unions and forming
- [Volume 38, Issue 1: The 21st Century Urban Landscape: Plus ça change](http://criticalsociology.org/the-21st-century-urban-landscape-plus-ca-change/) - In his account of the turbulent decade of the 1960s, in which New York City dealt with endemic corruption, racism and economic distress, English begins by telling us "(u)ntold thousands, perhaps millions, have fallen prey to the perils of municipal dysfunction, to the growing pains of a city forced to adjust to violent demographic shifts,
- [Volume 38, Issue 2: The Importance of a Perspective from Abroad](http://criticalsociology.org/the-importance-of-a-perspective-from-abroad/) - Even the most isolationist persons among us cannot help but be aware of how connected we are to the rest of the world, and for a moment recognize that perhaps we cannot disassociate ourselves from the global political economy. Aside from the endless noise about how we live in a globalized economy, and talk of
- [Volume 38, Issue 3: Globalization and its Discontents](http://criticalsociology.org/globalization-and-its-discontents/) - In this issue of the journal, William Robinson offers his analysis of the rise of transnational elites emerging outside of the traditional frame of nation-based capitalism. What is significant, in large part, is that unlike their national-capital predecessors, this new cadre has little concern for all that we refer to as social reproduction, industrialization, and
- [Volume 38, Issue 4: Racial Politics and the Right](http://criticalsociology.org/racial-politics-and-the-right/) - As the country was engaged in a primary campaign that pitted Barack Obama against Hillary Clinton, many saw it as a battle between the candidate of a progressive, post-racial America and the representative of the traditional political forces that had defined the Democratic Party for decades. The fact that this country was at a political
- [Volume 38, Issue 5: Where Will Change Come From?](http://criticalsociology.org/where-will-change-come-from/) - In a recent editorial in the New York Times (New York Times Editorial, 2012), rising income inequality and the unbalanced debt burden are identified as the reason our economy is struggling, and why (by implication), unless this situation is remedied, austerity measures are destined to fail. Clearly, this revelation does not come as news to
- [Volume 38, Issue 6: Political Leadership and Social Transformation](http://criticalsociology.org/political-leadership-and-social-transformation/) - We are in the midst of a national decision (some might argue it is a sham, others that the choices are only by degree and not of great substance) on who should be the next President of the United States. Debates on the left vacillate between arguments that it does not matter who is elected since the
- [Volume 39, Issue 1: Old Wine, Old Bottles](http://criticalsociology.org/old-wine-old-bottles/) - We have just finished a marathon election season, almost two years in the making, and by all accounts billions of dollars spent (almost $3b by the candidates, altogether about $6b by all the various campaigns and PACs formed to promote one candidate or another), to arrive at the same place. We might be excused if

Since there were no longer bystanders, everybody was also reclassified
- [Volume 39, Issue 3: The Health of Societies and Bodies](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-39-issue-3-the-health-of-societies-and-bodies/) - Two recent events have helped define our current situation in high relief. Many of us were in shock when, on 14 December 2012, a young man, using weapons obtained from his mother, (after killing her) went on a rampage at an elementary school brutally killing 20 children and six adults before turning the guns on
- [Volume 39, Issue 4: Alternatives to Capitalism](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-39-issue-4-alternatives-to-capitalism/) - The worsening social pains of government austerity programs now intensify the vast social suf- fering caused by the crisis since 2007. Beyond this especially severe business cycle, longer term trends show capitalist mega-corporations moving blue and white collar work to lower wage regions far from the former centers of capitalist production (the USA and Western
- [Volume 39, Issue 5: Profits of Doom](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-39-issue-5-profits-of-doom/) - Robust economic growth during the last half of the 20th century resulted in many changes: workers increasingly acquired the trappings of a middle class existence as they bought homes, cars and all the ‘modern appliances’; families moved into better housing in suburban neighborhoods, abandoned the worst of the inner cities in the USA (or moved
- [Volume 39, Issue 6: Time to Change the Subject: A New Sociology of Praxis](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-39-issue-6-time-to-change-the-subject-a-new-sociology-of-praxis/) - For at least half a century, social constructionism strongly marked the course of sociological studies of social problems. Its presence was felt in social problems textbooks, various dedicated book series, and within the discipline’s major professional associations, particularly the Society for the Study of Social Problems (SSSP) where many seminal constructionists served as presiding officers

The extent of intellection prostitution to those who oppress and manipulate others may have already reached the point of no return. (Western Union of Radical Sociologists, 1969b) With these opening sentences, the founders of The Insurgent Sociologist, which later became Critical Sociology,1 gave notice to the academy writ large,
- [Volume 40, Issue 2: Global Economy, Global Dialog](http://criticalsociology.org/volume-40-issue-2-global-economy-global-dialog/) - We are constantly reminded that we live in a world that is now connected by a global economy, one that transcends the earlier understanding of an international economy. In the latter case, major corporations situated in a core country—either the US, Japan, or those that comprise Western Europe—and projected their economic power as the post-colonial
