Gujarati Indian Networks in New York and London

Maritsa V. Poros
To gain new insights into migration today, Modern Migrations takes a closer look at the historical presence of globalization and how it has organized migration and social networks. With a focus on the lives of Gujarati Indians in New York and London, this book explains migration patterns through different kinds of social networks and relations. This outstanding book opens a new window on the population movements currently crossing the globe . Reaching back into history and spanning the divides between the mass migrations of the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries, Poros tells a compelling story, one that will interest established scholars and new students of migration alike .

Illicit Flirtations
Labor, Migration, and Sex Trafficking in Tokyo
Rhacel Salazar Parreas

AVAILABLE IN SEPTEMBER 2011

Cultures, Technologies, and the Politics of Care

Intimate Labors

Edited by Eileen Boris and Rhacel Salazar Parreas

This book advances debates over the relationship between care and economy through the concept of intimate laborcare, domestic, and sex workand thus charts relations of race, class, gender, sexuality, and citizenship in the context of global economic transformations. This volumes ingenious focus on intimate labor encompasses a fascinating range of activities, from egg donation to end-oflife care, from child care to sex work . Intimate Labors makes an extremely valuable contribution to feminist theorizing on care work and reproductive labor by providing fresh insights on the lives of intimate laborers, as well as on the impact of race, gender, and sexuality in the context of globalization .
Dorothy Roberts, Northwestern University

In 2004, the U.S. State Department declared Filipina hostesses in Japan the largest group of sex trafficked persons in the world. Since receiving this global attention, the number of hostesses entering Japan has dropped by nearly 90 percentfrom more than 80,000 in 2004 to just over 8,000 today. To some, this might suggest a victory for the global anti-trafficking campaign, but Rhacel Parreas counters that this drastic declinewhich stripped thousands of migrants of their livelihoodsis in truth a setback. Working alongside migrant Filipina hostesses in Japan, Parreas investigates the impact of being labeled as trafficked victims and explores what governments should do to improve the lives of global migrants. Illicit Flirtations challenges our understandings of and international policies toward human trafficking, giving a long overdue look into the real world of those labeled as trafficked.
With insight, brio, and compelling empirical evidence, Rhacel Parreas offers a novel interpretation of filipino hostesses working in Japan . boldly departing from standard accounts that treat all migrant hostesses as equal victims of sexual trafficking, Illicit Flirtations presents a nuanced portrayal of the womens multiple labor and sentimental experiences . scholars and policy-makers should take note .
Viviana A. Zelizer, Princeton University

a triumph from a leading scholar of migrant-female labor . In this work of daring ethnography and thinking, Rhacel Parreas challenges conventional views about sex work and sex trafficking, revealing sex work as not solely prostitution but a continuum of practices, along which issues of volition, morality, and law collide and converge in complex dynamics .

Migration and Transnational Perspectives

Gridlock

Labor, Migration, and Human Trafficking in Dubai

Pardis Mahdavi

Legislators hoping to combat human trafficking focus heavily on women and sex work, but there is real potential for abuse of both male and female migrants in a variety of areas of employmentwhether on the street, in a field, at a restaurant, or at someones house. Gridlock explores how migrants actual experiences in Dubai contrast with the typical discussionsand global moral panicabout human trafficking. Mahdavi powerfully contrasts migrants own stories with interviews with U.S. policy makers, revealing the gaping disconnect between policies on human trafficking and the realities of forced labor and migration in the Persian Gulf. To work toward solving this global problem, we need to be honest about what trafficking isand is notand to finally get past the stereotypes about trafficked persons so we can really understand the challenges migrant workers are living through every day.
Pardis Mahdavi provides a valuable service by exposing the contradictions and complexities that so often muddle the discussions and debates surrounding the issue of human trafficking . she makes an impassioned call for a more rational policy for dealing with this scourge, a call that eschews the sometimes simplistic and often melodramatic rhetoric surrounding the problem of international human trafficking .
Reza Aslan, author of No God but God and Beyond Fundamentalism

The First International Movement to Combat the Sexual Exploitation of Women

Stephanie A. Limoncelli
limoncelli provides a necessary and enlightening history for understanding the present world of womens sex work and for thinking about the role transnational non-governmental organizations play in making policy in conjunction with both states and the United nations . no one interested in the fraught struggles over sex work and trafficking can afford to ignore this history .
Leila J. Rupp, University of California, Santa Barbara

The Politics of Trafficking

This is an extraordinarily well-researched and gripping book on human trafficking in Dubai . With impressive clarity, Mahdavi describes the complex problem of trafficked women, migrants and foreign workers and the role of the international community and the host country in dealing with it .
Haleh Esfandiari, author of My Prison, My Home: One Womans Story of Captivity in Iran

This book is a timely contribution to the global debate surrounding the complex origins of both trafficking and anti-trafficking politics . a must-read for understanding the historical nexus of states, immigration, and the control over sexual labor .
David Kyle, University of California, Davis

at the heart of the book is a plea for greater worker protections . a must-read for those interested in labor and migration issuesnot just trafficking .

New Destination Dreaming

Immigration, Race, and Legal Status in the Rural American South
Helen B. Marrow

How Race, Class, and Gender Shape American Enterprise

Zulema Valdez
For many entrepreneurs, the American Dream remains only partially fulfilled. Unequal outcomes between the middle and lower classes, men and women, and Latino/as, whites, and blacks highlight continuing inequalities and constraints within American society. With a focus on a diverse group of Latino entrepreneurs, this book explores how class, gender, race, and ethnicity all shape Latino entrepreneurs capacity to succeed in business in the United States. In this richly textured and engaging book, Valdez presents us with a fresh and nuanced look at entrepreneurship and a new angle from which to gauge how ethnicity and race matter in shaping peoples lives .
Cecilia Menjivar, Arizona State University

The New Entrepreneurs

New Destination Dreaming explores how the rural context impacts the immigrant experience, how rapid Hispanic immigration influences southern race relations, and how institutions like schools and law enforcement agencies deal with unauthorized residents. Though the South is assumed to be an economically depressed region, low-wage food processing jobs are offering Hispanic newcomers the opportunity to carve out a living and join the rural working class, though this is not without its problems. Inattention from politicians to this growing population and rising black-brown tensions are both factors in contemporary rural southern life. Ultimately, Marrow presents a cautiously optimistic view of Hispanic newcomers opportunities for upward mobility in the rural South, while underscoring the threat of anti-immigrant sentiment and restrictive policymaking that has gripped the region in recent years.
Helen Marrow offers a penetrating look at how latino immigrants are faring in two rural southern counties . The book focuses a clarifying lens on the challenges of assimilation in places that have little experience of diversity beyond the black-white color line and no real history of immigration . It shines new light on old issues and will be of interest to all serious students of immigration .

What Can You Say?

Carol Lynn McKibben

The deeply entrenched patterns of racial inequality in the United States simply do not square with the liberal notion of a nation-state of equal citizens. Uncovering the false promise of liberalism, State of White Supremacy reveals race to be a fundamental, if flexible, ruling logic that perpetually generates and legitimates racial hierarchy and privilege. a savvy blockbuster of a book, with prominent activists and scholars telling it like it really is: the U .s . state is systemically racist and imperialistic, with tentacles reaching into an array of societal arenas and operations, including military institutions, immigration agencies, schools, the prison-industrial complex, the supreme Court, the welfare system, and the terrorism mislabeled hate crimes .
Joe R. Feagin, Texas A&M University

This book reveals how a California citys civil rights struggles and racialized local politics were dramatically affected by the citys relationship with the military, and speaks to larger debates on American urban development, race relations, and civilian/military relationships throughout the twentieth century. a fascinatingly splendid book that challenges conventional wisdom about the power or race to shape urban life, the role of the military in generating social change, and the motivating origins of community organizing in the civil rights era . This book illustrates the role of small communities in the transformation of 20th century american society .
Quintard Taylor, University of Washington

John Hartigan uses a years worth of news storiesfrom the Jena six to obamato ponder what makes them racial .

Rekindled Memories of Imprisonment in Iran

Shahla Talebi
At once deeply personal yet clearly political, part memoir and part meditation, this work brings to heartbreaking clarity how deeply rooted torture and violence can be in our society. Writing about her own imprisonmentfirst under the shah and later by the Islamic Republicand sharing stories of her fellow inmates, Talebi details the painful reality of prison life and offers an intimate look at a critical period of social and political transformation in Iran. This searing memoir of womens visceral pain, principled resilience, and redemptive imagination in Irans brutal political prisons will leave you shaken, forever . Talebis voice is remarkable for its generous empathy and its poetry in evoking the tortured humanity of the women with whom she shared her prison experience .

Frances S. Hasso

Hassos account of the ways in which marriage and intimacy intersect with state policy and legal systems in egypt and the Uae is timely, important, and insightful . Hasso rightly analyzes the challenges and difficulties but also reports on real gains .

Political Opportunities and the Emergence of Protest

Edited by Jeff Goodwin and James M. Jasper
Despite extensive theoretical debates over the utility of political opportunities as an explanation for the rise and success of social movements, there have been surprisingly few serious empirical tests. This book provides the most extensive effort to date to test the model, analyzing a range of important cases of revolutions and protest movements to identify the role of political opportunities in the rise of political contention. With evidence from more than fifty cases, this book explores the role of the state in protest, the frequent overemphasis on political opportunities in recent research, and the extent to which opportunity models ignore the cultural and emotional triggers for collective action. By examining new directions in the study of protest and contention, this book shows that although political opportunities can help explain the emergence of certain kinds of movements, a new strategic language can ultimately tell us far more.
Debates about the concept of political opportunity structure remain vivid and strongly divisive . This book clearly highlights the variety of theoretical conceptualizations in the field and offers path-breaking proposals that will be very useful in future discussions about the actual effect of political contexts on the fate of social movements .

Doug McAdam, Stanford University

This work is destined to become the authoritative text on the variety of ways individuals participate in social activism . Very few studies move beyond initial engagement to explore life-course trajectories of protest participation . While some research explores the social psychology behind decisions to protest, this book reveals the significant ways in which the organizational context of activist groups shapes participation .

Caroline B. Brettell and Deborah Reed-Danahay

This book highlights the importance of local-level innovations and democratic advances, charting a middle path between those who theorize that globalization hollows out democracy and those who celebrate globalization as a means of fostering democratic values. Uncovering the states role in creating an associational environment, it reveals the contradictory ways institutional reforms shape the democratic capabilities of civil society. Writing on brazils two-decadelong experiment in participatory budgeting, the authors defend democracys great promise: to turn citizens from clients into self-governing agents who, deploying their human powers, direct politics to a common good .
Joshua Cohen, Stanford University

Colls ethnographic study illuminates the myriad ways that immigrant women are enacting new forms of citizenship in their own image and on their own terms . . . The strength of Remaking Citizenship is that Coll does not succumb to a linear narrative of womens self-empowerment, but remains attentive to the gaps and contradictions in latina citizenship discourses .

The Left-Wing Origins of Neoliberalism

Johanna Bockman
Challenging conventional accounts, this book chronicles a transnational dialogue among economists on both sides of the Iron Curtain about democracy, socialism, and markets. These exchanges led to the transformations of 1989 and, unintentionally, the rise of neoliberalism. In this tour de force, Johanna bockman studies the history of economics to extricate neoclassical theory and market institutions from their identification with capitalism, and in so doing opens up the future to the possibility of all sorts of market socialisms . a must-read .
Michael Burawoy, University of California, Berkeley

The Cultural Wealth of Nations

Edited by Nina Bandelj and Frederick F. Wherry

Leading scholars from a range of disciplinary backgrounds examine how symbolic resources and cultural understandings help firms and regions develop. Through a thoughtful analysis of current-day cases, as well as historical developments, The Cultural Wealth of Nations offers an exciting new alternative to standard economic explanations about the wealth and poverty of nations. This breakout volume pushes the precarious balance of economic sociology decisively to the cultural side . The cultural wealth of nations is a phrase that reconstructs adam smith and deserves to enter deeply into the lexicon of sociology .

Learning Through Conflict in the HipHop and Spoken Word Classroom

Bronwen E. Low
Exploring the often difficult relations between hip-hop and schooling, Slam School builds a new and surprising argument: the very reasons teachers and administrators might resist the deliberate introduction of hiphop into the planned curriculum are what make hip-hop so pedagogically vital. low not only synthesizes hiphop and spoken word history and culture, she brings them to life through a dynamic pedagogical portrait examining the complexities and power of creating a curriculum around youth culture . Slam School is a must read for educators seeking to bridge the gap between the coffee house and the school house .

Race and Achievement among African American Youth

Nailah Suad Nasir
Unique in its attention to the challenges that social and educational stratification pose, as well as to the opportunities that extracurricular activities can offer for African American students access to learning, this book brings a deeper understanding of the local and fluid aspects of academic, racial, and ethnic identities. This provocative book contributes in important ways to understanding the pressing developmental challenges that all young people face as they construct a sense of identity that they can carry across different contexts . Most importantly, nasir considers the implications of this for teaching and creating optimal learning environments inside and outside of school .

Encounters with Social Theory
Gianfranco Poggi and Giuseppe Sciortino

Edited by Markus C. Becker, Thorbjrn Knudsen, and Richard Swedberg

anyone who wishes to know what schumpeter, that undisputed father of extensive entrepreneurship theory, really thought and really understood must turn to this illuminating volume .
William J. Baumol, New York University and Princeton University

Classic Texts by Joseph A. Schumpeter

The Entrepreneur

Modern social thought is largely the intellectual product of a number of "great minds." Revisiting the central theories of Marx, Durkheim, Weber, Simmel, Mead, Parsons, Goffman, Garfinkel, and Luhmann, this text introduces readers to a select group of thinkers who have made significant, distinctive, and controversial contributions to the development of modern social theory. Offering a careful selection of primary sources that encourage direct engagement with the writings, Poggi and Sciortino emphasize the theoretical insights and problems that remain valuable to discussions of social theory today. Each chapter introduces key ideas, whether classical or contemporary, through a discussion of each theorists contribution to the exploration of the human actors and the consequences, potentialities, and vulnerabilities embedded in social relationships.
a fresh, lively encounter with sociologys major thinkers . The book is effortlessly engaging and conveys the complexity of sociological thinking with ease . Readers are given the chance to both deepen their knowledge and revisit authors in a new and stimulating way . a great achievement!
