The Public and Their Platforms

Public Sociology in an Era of Social Media

By: Mark Carrigan,Lambros Fatsis

As social media is increasingly becoming a standard feature of sociological practice, this timely book rethinks the role of these mediums in public sociology and what they can contribute to the discipline in the post-COVID world. It reconsiders the history and current conceptualizations of what sociology is, and analyzes what kinds of social life emerge in and through the interactions between ‘intellectuals’, ‘publics’ and ‘platforms’ of communication. Cutting across multiple disciplines, this pioneering work envisions a new kind of public sociology that brings together the digital and the physical to create public spaces where critical scholarship and active civic engagement can meet in a mutually reinforcing way.

Structure, Culture and Agency

Selected Papers of Margaret Archer

By: Tom Brock,Mark Carrigan,Graham Scambler

Professor Margaret Archer is a leading critical realist and major contemporary social theorist. This edited collection seeks to celebrate the scope and accomplishments of her work, distilling her theoretical and empirical contributions into four sections which capture the essence and trajectory of her research over almost four decades. Long fascinated with the problem of structure and agency, Archer’s work has constituted a decade-long engagement with this perennial issue of social thought. However, in spite of the deep interconnections that unify her body of work, it is rarely treated as a coherent whole. This is doubtless in part due to the unforgiving rigour of her arguments and prose, but also a byproduct of sociology’s ongoing compartmentalisation. This edited collection seeks to address this relative neglect by collating a selection of papers, spanning Archer’s career, which collectively elucidate both the development of her thought and the value that can be found in it as a systematic whole. This book illustrates the empirical origins of her social ontology in her early work on the sociology of education, as well as foregrounding the diverse range of influences that have conditioned her intellectual trajectory: the systems theory of Walter Buckley, the neo-Weberian analysis of Lockwood, the critical realist philosophy of Roy Bhaskar and, more recently, her engagement with American pragmatism and the Italian school of relational sociology. What emerges is a series of important contributions to our understanding of the relationship between structure, culture and agency. Acting to introduce and guide readers through these contributions, this book carries the potential to inform exciting and innovative sociological research.

Immigration Man

By: Michael Carrigan

Immigration Man By: Michael Carrigan Enforcing immigration laws by prohibiting illegal entry into the U.S., while a dangerous and often-thankless job, is carried out on a daily basis by our nation’s brave Border Patrol agents. Chief Pat Brennan, as a U.S. Border Patrol agent, was committed to all aspects of his job, including halting the flow of illegal immigrants attempting to make their way into the United States from Mexico. However, it isn’t until Chief Brennan rescues Teresa, a young, pregnant Mexican woman during a nighttime watch, that he begins to realize that even the most well-trained and well-prepared Border Patrol agents struggle with emotions that may impede their ability to make clear decisions and carry out their job duties. As a result of the harrowing rescue operation, Chief Brennan finds himself bonding with Teresa and questioning his commitment to the Border Patrol and the lengths he will go to protect her and her unborn child. Immigration Man explores the inner turmoil often experienced by our nation’s Border Patrol agents and the choice one agent makes when humanity surpasses all.

The Antiserum Novels

Antiserum, the Rising, Venom

By: Patricia Carrigan

“In her debut books The Antiserum Novels, author Patricia Carrigan creates interesting and relatable characters that Stephenie Meyer would be proud of, in an intertwining tale of vampires that spans centuries. The Antiserum Novels is a sexy, fun, and fast-paced series that goes from the innocent teenage drama of high school to a timeless tale of love, lust, and loss. Take the time to sink your teeth into these books – you won’t regret it!” — E.S.Brown, author of VAMPOCALYPSE and CODENAME: SCARLETT In this world, there are people who are born as Genetic Vampires, and those who are turned into what is known as a Bitten Vampire. Unfortunately for Jocelyn, she didn’t know that either of those existed until she Shifted. Now, she’s faced with even bigger problems than getting through high school and college like a normal person - she can read minds, one of the oldest vampires in history is trying to track her down, she can’t stop herself from wanting blood, even when her body doesn’t need it. Worse, a rogue group of Bitten Vampires are trying to end the race of Genetic Vampires all together, and her heart won’t stop getting in the way. All she wants to do is focus on her next meal, but it can’t be that easy right?

Structured to Fail?

Regulatory Performance under Competing Mandates

By: Christopher Carrigan

In the search for explanations for three of the most pressing crises of the early twenty-first century (the housing meltdown and financial crisis, the Gulf oil spill, and the nuclear disaster at Fukushima), commentators pointed to the structure of the regulatory agencies charged with overseeing the associated industries, noting that the need to balance competing regulatory and non-regulatory missions undermined each agency's ability to be an effective regulator. Christopher Carrigan challenges this critique by employing a diverse set of research methods, including a statistical analysis, an in-depth case study of US regulatory oversight of offshore oil and gas development leading up to the Gulf oil spill, and a formal theoretical discussion, to systematically evaluate the benefits and concerns associated with either combining or separating regulatory and non-regulatory missions. His analysis demonstrates for policymakers and scholars why assigning competing non-regulatory missions to regulatory agencies can still be better than separating them in some cases.

Forgotten Dead

Mob Violence against Mexicans in the United States, 1848-1928

By: William D. Carrigan,Clive Webb

Mob violence in the United States is usually associated with the southern lynch mobs who terrorized African Americans during the Jim Crow era. In Forgotten Dead, William D. Carrigan and Clive Webb uncover a comparatively neglected chapter in the story of American racial violence, the lynching of persons of Mexican origin or descent. Over eight decades lynch mobs murdered hundreds of Mexicans, mostly in the American Southwest. Racial prejudice, a lack of respect for local courts, and economic competition all fueled the actions of the mob. Sometimes ordinary citizens committed these acts because of the alleged failure of the criminal justice system; other times the culprits were law enforcement officers themselves. Violence also occurred against the backdrop of continuing tensions along the border between the United States and Mexico aggravated by criminal raids, military escalation, and political revolution. Based on Spanish and English archival documents from both sides of the border, Forgotten Dead explores through detailed case studies the characteristics and causes of mob violence against Mexicans across time and place. It also relates the numerous acts of resistance by Mexicans, including armed self-defense, crusading journalism, and lobbying by diplomats who pressured the United States to honor its rhetorical commitment to democracy. Finally, it contains the first-ever inventory of Mexican victims of mob violence in the United States. Carrigan and Webb assess how Mexican lynching victims came in the minds of many Americans to be the "forgotten dead" and provide a timely account of Latinos' historical struggle for recognition of civil and human rights.

The criminal justice system is overwrought with police officers overstepping their ethical bounds, prosecutors who seek convictions over justice, and public defenders who are over worked and not equipped with the resources necessary to provide an adequate client centered defense. The business of the prison system is now the equivalent of legal slavery. " Amber C. Macias Attorney at Law "There are two constitutions, one for criminal cases generally and another for drug cases which invites police officers to behave like criminals and they do."

Unbound

By: Payton E. Carrigan

Her greatest pursuit is freedom. Her greatest fear is love. He knows the two go hand in hand. • Kit is a strong and independent woman; it’s what the world tells her she can be, so she owns it. Even as a junior in college she has never needed or had any desire for a boyfriend; he would just tie her down. She definitely wouldn’t be able to fly so freely to Costa Rica for her internship at the human trafficking restoration home. Upon arrival, Kit Immediately finds her heart encircled and enlivened by the Latin rhythms, but she quickly encounters another disturbance there too—one that’s not so welcome. While she may be calling this place home for now, it really belongs to Dash; this is his language, his ocean, his territory. The only thing she can lay claim to is her solitary backpack, the simple room she’s been given, and her heart. That is still definitely, unquestionably, undoubtedly hers. It's easy for Kit to understand that the girls at the restoration home cling to distrust and fear when it comes to love, but she is quickly realizing that her own steady heart seems to be buried alongside the girls’ she came to work with, and only the purest of loves can really set them all free. • • While the content is meant to be clean and guarded in nature, there is some information about human trafficking, and content around this subject, which may make some readers uncomfortable.

Cracking the Bro Code

By: Coleen Carrigan

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Cracking the Bro Code

By: Coleen Carrigan

Why dominant racial and gender groups have preferential access to jobs in computing, and how feminist labor activism in computing culture can transform the field into a force that serves democracy and social justice. Cracking the Bro Code is a bold ethnographic study of sexism and racism in contemporary computing cultures theorized through the analytical frame of the “Bro Code.” Drawing from feminist anthropology and STS, Coleen Carrigan shares in this book the direct experiences of women, nonbinary individuals, and people of color, including her own experiences in tech, to show that computing has a serious cultural problem. From senior leaders in the field to undergraduates in their first year of college, participants consistently report how sexism and harassment manifest themselves in computing via values, norms, behaviors, evaluations, and policies. While other STEM fields are making strides in recruiting, retaining, and respecting women workers, computing fails year after year to do so. Carrigan connects altruism, computing, race, and gender to advance the theory that social purpose is an important factor to consider in working toward gender equity in computing. Further, she argues that transforming computing culture from hostile to welcoming has the potential to change not only who produces computing technology but also the core values of its production, with possible impacts on social applications. Cracking the Bro Code explains how digital bosses have come to operate imperiously in our society, dodging taxes and oversight, and how some programmers who look like them are enchanted with a sense of divine right. In the context of computing’s powerful influence on the world, Carrigan speculates on how the cultural mechanisms sustaining sexism, harassment, and technocracy in computing workspaces impact both those harmed by such violence as well as society at large.

In Europe, the poet challenges the themes of stability and change, and explores the role of prophecy and its influence on our lives and will. Europe confronts the reader directly on aspects of the modern European identity but it doesn’t prescribe, allowing space and a conclusion for the reader to draw within the reflections of history, and mythology. In this special edition both Europe and Panormus are presented together for the first time.
