001. Course 01. Service-Learning: Engaging Students and Community in Sociology and Social Change
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Corey Dolgon, Stonehill College Leader: Corey Dolgon, Stonehill College Co-Leader: Jonathan Michael White, Bridgewater State
College This Pre-conference course will begin with introductions and evaluate expectations and levels of previous engagement with service-learning. The leaders will then present a brief history and overview of definitions and best practices, in part determined by audience expectations. We will then ask participants to quickly outline a service learning course design (either one they have taught already or one they are considering—in mapping out the course and projects, we want participants to consider the strengths and weaknesses and what they perceive as the opportunities and challenges they will face). At this point, we will choose at least one previously taught class and one new one to workshop as a group (more if time permits), discussing aspects of learning outcomes and assessment, community impact and sustainability, etc. We'll conclude with a brief discussion about the "future" of service-learning and current debates and controversies about partnerships, student engagement, service versus research, and developing a social justice paradigm.

002. Course 02. Working With Fuzzy Sets Caesars Palace Las Vegas
Session Organizer: Charles C. Ragin, University of Arizona Leader: Charles C. Ragin, University of Arizona Fuzzy set analysis is gaining popularity in the social sciences today because of the close connections it enables among verbal theory, substantive knowledge (especially in the assessment of degree of set membership), and the analysis of empirical evidence. Fuzzy sets are especially useful in case-oriented research, where the investigator has a degree of familiarity with the cases included in the investigation and seeks to understand cases configurationally—as specific combinations of aspects or elements. Using fuzzy-set methods, case outcomes can be examined in ways that allow for causal complexity, where different combinations of causally relevant conditions combine to generate the outcome in question. Also, with fuzzy-set methods it is a possible to evaluate arguments that causal conditions are necessary or sufficient. Analyses of this type are outside the scope of conventional analytic methods. Specific topics addressed in the course include: the differences between set-theoretic and correlational methods; conventional crisp sets versus fuzzy sets; the calibration of fuzzy sets; how calibration differs from conventional forms of measurement; analyzing fuzzy set relations; the correspondence between concepts and fuzzy set membership scores; the correspondence between theoretical statements and the analysis of fuzzy set relations; using fuzzy sets to study cases as configurations; and using fuzzy sets to unravel causal complexity, with a special focus on the equifinality. In all phases of the course, participants will work with fsQCA, a free Windows software package designed for fuzzy set analysis and for Qualitative Comparative Analysis. fsQCA can be downloaded from www.fsqca.com.

003. Opening Plenary Session. Walking the Walk and Talking the Talk: Working in Sociological Traditions
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Andrew Abbott, University of Chicago Presider: Craig Calhoun, Social Science Research Council Doing the Chicago School. Andrew Abbott, University of
Chicago Revisioning Gender. Myra Marx Ferree, University of
Wisconsin Making the World Safe for Demography. Douglas S. Massey,
Princeton University Marxism after Communism. Michael Burawoy, University of
California-Berkeley In this session, four senior scholars will discuss the experience of working within particular sociological traditions. Given the diverse traditions involved and the differences of the speakers' personalities, the papers will no doubt vary greatly. But they may cover topics like what traditions are in the first place, how and whether one gets associated with a tradition, what are the advantages and disadvantages, merging or shifting one's tradition-identity, and so on. Beyond that loose agenda, the speakers are on their own. Our aim is to provide an entertaining but substantive opening to the meeting.

004. Thematic Session. Conflict and Cooperation in Social Networks
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Michael W. Macy, Cornell University Presider: Michael W. Macy, Cornell University Panelists: Mario Diani, ICREA-Universitat Pompeu Fabra
Andreas Flache, University of Groningen Elisa Jayne Bienenstock, Georgetown University - NSI
Discussant: Harrison C. White, Columbia University This session will be an opportunity for an exchange of ideas and findings among researchers studying the effects of network structure and dynamics on conflict and cooperation. Topics include mobilization of collective action, intergroup conflict, trust, and social norms. The common thread will be network analysis, including network structure, homophily, and peer influence, as both cause and consequence of conflict and cooperation.
005. Thematic Session. Conflicts in Medicine: Individual vs. Institutional Actors
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Cameron Macdonald, University of
Wisconsin - Madison Presider: Cameron Macdonald, University of Wisconsin -
Madison Discussant: Cameron Macdonald, University of Wisconsin -
Madison The session will address critical battles between system-level demands and individual needs in health care provision in the US and abroad. Institutional actors (such as physician's groups, pharmaceutical companies, health insurers) make demands for efficiency, effectiveness and profits. These demands conflict in multiple arenas with the needs of patients and their families. The proposed session brings together a panel of experts from inside and outside of the discipline to address the most critical junctures of individual/institutional conflict for the practice of medicine today.
006. Thematic Session. Crisis and Conflict in American Housing
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizers: Rachel E. Dwyer, The Ohio State
University Barrett Lee, Pennsylvania State University
Presider: Rachel E. Dwyer, The Ohio State University Panelists: Gregory D. Squires, George Washington Univ.
Chenoa Flippen, University of Pennsylvania Stefanie Ann DeLuca, Johns Hopkins University
Located at the intersection of multiple dimensions of inequality, the housing arena is understandably rife with conflict. A house may be at once a basic necessity, a source of personal meaning, a commodity, and a gateway—shaping access to education, health care, social networks, and labor markets. Conflict arises between constituencies with competing claims to housing spaces and opposing interests in the use and exchange of housing. There is conflict between residents and the myriad institutions that regulate housing. Housing is a prime domain of domination and resistance for groups divided by class, race, ethnicity, nativity, gender, family structure, and other statuses. The recent financial crisis highlights the range of conflicts that infuse the housing arena. Instances of struggle and confrontation are manifested in foreclosures, evictions, squatting, public housing, residential segregation, discriminatory real estate and lending practices, gentrification, and suburban poverty, to give but a few examples. This session brings together academic and policy experts to explore diverse forms of housing conflict in a time of economic uncertainty.
007. Thematic Session. Is a Sociology of War Feasible and/or Desirable?
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Andreas Wimmer, University of California-
Los Angeles Presider: Andreas Wimmer, University of California-Los
Angeles Organised Violence and Social Order: Towards Micro and
Macro Sociology of War. Sinisa Malesevic, National University of Ireland, Galway
Sociology of War/Conflict: Assessing Sociology's Potential Contributions. Susan Olzak, Stanford University
Discussant: Andreas Wimmer, University of California-Los Angeles
Panelists discuss whether there is, and if not, whether there should be a specifically sociological approach to the study of war. The current disciplinary division of labor assigns sociology the role of understanding the consequences of war (for state-building, revolutions etc.), while political science focuses on explaining wars as an outcome in itself. Is this a satisfactory division of labor? Or is there a particular empirical point of view or even theoretical approach that differentiates sociological from the dominant political science approaches to the study of war? What would the contours of such an approach (or approaches) look like?
008. Thematic Session. Nation-building and Peace Building in Post-Conflict Africa: Gender and Justice
Caesars Palace Las Vegas
Session Organizer: Oyeronke Oyewumi, State University of New York-Stony Brook
Presider: Oyeronke Oyewumi, State University of New York-Stony Brook
Rethinking the Nation-building Project in Africa: Social Conflict, Social Change and Social Policy. Jimi O. Adesina, Rhodes University
Women and Peace Building in Conflict and Post Conflict Liberia and Uganda. Cassandra Veney, Loyola Marymount University
Gendered Representation of war and its implications for Human Rights in Africa's Conflict Societies. Chiseshe Mibengue, City University of New York-Lehman
Postcolonial Africa has been wracked by conflict. Labels such as "failed states" and "uncivil societies" dominate the Africanist literature as the tone of much scholarly writings have grown ever more pessimistic. More recently however, the activism and increasing power and representation of women in political institutions in a number of post-conflict societies provide a welcome counter narrative. The panelists will examine the economic, social and political conditions of conflict and violence from the perspective of the degrading of the nation-building project. The gendered experiences of war and post conflict transformation will provide another template as the panelists examine the prominent role of women in peace and nation building in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Uganda. The gendered experiences of children at war and its implications for international human Rights and Justice projects are some of the issues to be examined.
009. Special Session. Climate Change: Reconfiguring Global Authority, Resources, Ideas, and Bodies
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Simone Pulver, University of California-
Santa Barbara Presider: Dana R. Fisher, University of Maryland Panelists: JoAnn Carmin, Massachusetts Institute of
Technology Anna-Liisa Aunio, Université de Montréal J. Timmons Roberts, Brown University Simone Pulver, University of California-Santa Barbara Lori M. Hunter, University of Colorado, Boulder
Discussant: George M. Thomas, Arizona State University Master globalization narratives depict its consequences as exacerbating global inequalities or as rationalizing a new world system. Global integration due to climate change -which links factory workers in China with coastal communities in the Gulf of Mexico and carbon finance experts in London with slum activist in Cape Town - challenges such master narratives. On the one hand, current management processes in the global climate regime reveal its capacity to mask and reinforce inequalities in contributions to climate change, exposure to adverse affects, and participation (as well as capacity to participate) in international environmental politics. On the other hand, emerging climate governance processes have also created new venues to challenge asymmetric linkages and new opportunities to promote equitable development. The goal of this session is to investigate the specific linkages and organizational forms through which global climate governance is being constituted and challenged. Speakers will highlight the various arenas - from local cities to transnational negotiations—in which governments, international organizations, NGOs, and social movements are navigating both cooperation and conflict in the expansion of climate change governance. In so doing, speakers will examine the actual conditions, mechanisms and channels through which various actors are shaping the global climate regime as well as what consequences their actions have for how authority, resources, ideas and bodies are organized and distributed in an increasingly global society.
010. Special Session. Globalization and the Transformation of Sexuality
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Elizabeth A. Armstrong, University of
Michigan Presider: Elizabeth A. Armstrong, University of Michigan Panelists: Hector Carrillo, Northwestern University
Jyoti Puri, Simmons College James Farrer, Sophia University Amy T. Schalet, University of Massachusetts at Amherst
Discussant: Barry D. Adam, University of Windsor Money, people, goods, ideas, practices, and social movements—including those related to sexuality—move across national boundaries ever more readily. To what extent and through what processes are sexual cultures and practices travelling across national boundaries? What does this migration mean for social justice? Are processes of globalization creating more space for sexual autonomy? Or are these processes creating more ways to exploit and abuse vulnerable populations? This panel asks scholars doing work in this area to address these questions.
011. Special Session. Nature or Nurture? Gender Theory, Social Constructionism and Biology
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Kristen Schilt, University of Chicago Presider: Kristen Schilt, University of Chicago Panelists: Bernice A. Pescosolido, Indiana University
Sarah Burgard, University of Michigan Sarah Fenstermaker, University of California-Santa Barbara Catherine J. Taylor, Columbia University
Discussant: Barbara Jane Risman, University of Illinois at Chicago
The source of differences and disparities between men and women has long been contested terrain within sociology. Many gender scholars have argued against using biological sex differences as an explanation for patterns of inequality, arguing that these differences are products of society. Yet, social constructionist arguments about gender inequality have been critiqued for leaving the body and biology out of their theory and research. The increasing trend toward including "bio-markers" in health research has re-sparked long-standing debates about the role of nature and nurture in accounting for gender differences and gender disparities. This panel brings together scholars who hold a variety of positions on this biological turn in an effort to consider both the benefits and risks of bringing biology back into the sociology of gender.
012. Professional Workshop. The Lavendar Vita: GBLT Sociologists on the Job Market
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Betsy Lucal, Indiana University South
Bend Leader: Betsy Lucal, Indiana University South Bend Co-Leaders: Sara L. Crawley, University of South Florida
Tey Meadow, New York University Carla A. Pfeffer, Purdue University North Central Salvador Vidal-Ortiz, American University
What is a "lavender vita"? What are the trials and tribulations associated with getting a job when one's vita is marked in this way? Might there ever be an advantage to going on the market with a lavender CV? Does the lavender vita cease to matter once you have secured a position? In this workshop, sociologists at various points in their careers will talk about how they have navigated the challenges of the lavender vita.
013. Policy and Research Workshop. Panel Study of Income Dynamics

Stratification and Family Formation in Post-Soviet Russia. Theodore P. Gerber, University of Wisconsin-Madison
It is exactly 20 years since Boris Yeltsin dramatically climbed onto the tank that prefigured the collapse of the Soviet Union by the end of 1991. How did this mighty empire collapse with hardly a whimper? What has happened to post-Soviet Russia over the last 20 years? These two questions are addressed by four scholars -- a historian, an anthropologist and two sociologists -- who have devoted their lives to unraveling the mysteries of the most fateful event of the late 20th century.

Discussant: Michael O. Emerson, Rice University Research on the intersections of race, class and gender has changed the way that sociologists study stratification. However, despite religion's self-stratifying nature and the ways in which race, class and gender are thus implicated in the study of religion, few researchers have attempted to examine the ways in which race, class, gender and religion intersect in meaningful ways. This panel is first attempt at remedying this situation.

Roland Robertson, University of Pittsburgh Discussant: George M. Thomas, Arizona State University This session will bring together sociologists who analyze and prolematize the secular nature of global civil society. The session will address the following key questions: What are the ways in which religious civic groups or fair-based organizations make religion relevant to the organization of global civil society? What is their impact on negotiations and contentions and on social conflict generally? How do religion civil society organizations compare to their secular counterparts in terms of agendas, strategies, outcomes, funding opportunities, accreditation, and credibility? How do these organizations negotiate across the secular-religious and global-local divide? What implications does religion in global civil society have for our theories of global political processes and for our research agendas?

053. Regional Spotlight Session (Las Vegas). Still Learning from Las Vegas: The Paradoxical Culture of an All-American City
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizers: Michael Ian Borer, University of Nevada,
Las Vegas Simon Gottschalk, University of Nevada- Las Vegas
Presiders: Michael Ian Borer, University of Nevada, Las Vegas Simon Gottschalk, University of Nevada- Las Vegas
Panelists: Kirsten Swenson, University of Nevada-Las Vegas Rick Lax, Las Vegas Weekly Jarret Keene, City Life David R. Dickens, University of Nevada-Las Vegas
Las Vegas is famous, and infamous, for repeatedly reinventing itself by appropriating styles and practices from other places. The continual changes in tourism, architecture, and population, however, do not occur by the fiat of an invisible (neon) hand. Instead, the people who live, work, and play in Las Vegas constitute a dynamic and paradoxical culture that is entrepreneurial and nostalgic, liberal and conservative, honest and illusory. Panelists - comprised of local academics and "culture makers" - will address the often contradictory characteristics of everyday life in Las Vegas and explain why the city remains "an exaggerated example from which to derive lessons for the typical" (Venturi, Brown, and Izenour, Learning from Las Vegas, 1977). Discussions will focus on the ways that Las Vegas, glittered warts and all, is emblematic of American cultural ideals, beliefs, and values. Crowd participation is welcomed and encouraged.
054. Professional Workshop. Managing the Margins: Professional Development within the Sociology of Diability
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Jeffrey A. Houser, University of Northern
Colorado Leader: Jeffrey A. Houser, University of Northern Colorado Co-Leaders: Sharon N. Barnartt, Gallaudet University
Richard K. Scotch, University of Texas at Dallas Disability is an emerging field of interest to sociologists. The newly established Disability and Society section was made possible by the support of nearly one hundred graduate students from across the discipline. Yet there are few resources available to sociologists interested in researching disability, publishing on disability, and teaching about disability. This workshop will offer strategies for building or enhancing a career in the sociology of disability. Topics will include: finding funding sources on disability; making journals choices; including disability into a curriculum; developing syllabi and designing a sociology of disability course; and service opportunities at the local, regional, and national levels.
055. Policy and Research Workshop. NSF Funding Opportunities, Merit Review Criteria and Proposal Preparation for Professional Sociologists and Graduate Studies

Representatives from the National Science Foundation (NSF) will discuss the proposal development process, elements of a competitive proposal, proposal submission and review, and funding opportunities for researchers. The format will be interactive, allowing for audience questions and participation.

Elizabeth Bernstein, Columbia University-Barnard College Rosalind Petchesky, Hunter College and the Graduate Center, City University of New York Roger Lancaster, George Mason University
Three years into the Obama Administration and amidst new constellations of political power, the hot-button "culture wars" issues of gender and sexuality that characterized the Bush years have been assumed by some commentators to have largely subsided. With the rise of an economically driven Tea Party movement and the decline of the Religious Right as a political presence, it is possible to make the argument that some of the most heated dimensions of sexual politics in the last decade—including gay marriage, abortion, sexual diversity in the military, and the global spread of HIV/AIDs—are receding in importance as politically divisive issues. At the same time, the continued salience of abortion politics in debates around health care reform and the rise of right-wing "birther" and anti-immigration movements that pivot on intersections of race and reproduction have returned sexuality to the forefront of national politics through some surprising new channels. This panel invites distinguished sociologists, historians, and political theorists to assess the state of contemporary sexual politics as well as the challenges for progressive social movements going forward. In what ways have certain key features of U.S. sexual politics shifted in the age of Obama? Which facets of the contemporary political terrain are most deeply entrenched? In the face of complicated and contradictory trends, panelists will consider the changing landscape of sexual politics through an analysis of foreign and domestic policy and the broader configurations of power that shape erotic life, including political economy, war and peace, and intersecting forms of inequality.

Fighting Fitna: How Islamists Reconfigure the Nation in Turkey, Egypt and Iran. Cihan Ziya Tugal, University of California-Berkeley
Discussant: Charles Kurzman, University of North Carolina A recurrent subtext underlying social conflict in the Middle East is contested conceptions of the nation. The ideology of the nation only developed in the region in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, yet national identities have become so powerfully entrenched that they are often taken for granted, both by Middle Easterners and by social-scientific observers. This panel explores the taken-for-grantedness of nationality through the study of headline-grabbing conflicts that often appear, on the surface, to revolve around something else. In each of these instances, political movements attempt to construct a unified sense of nationality, and suppress dissident images of the nation, through mobilization against an enemy. Turkish-Armenian conflicts, for example, use the bloodshed of 1915 to justify homogenizing visions of the nation-states that emerged from the Ottoman and Russian/Soviet empires in the 20th century. Neoliberals in the region sublimate class conflict through religious imagery of the nation. The Iranian reform movement and its authoritarian opponents invoke distinct conceptions of the nature of the Iranian nation, under the guise of disputes over religion and politics. Palestinian-Israeli conflicts are transparently "national," not just disputes between Israelis and Palestinians but also among Israelis and Palestinians, with sometimes violent clashes on each side over the nature and territorial birthright of the nation. This panel presents research by leading scholars exploring the ways in which the "nation" has become the site of contestation in each of these cases.
086. Thematic Session. Conflicting Visions of the American Family
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Sharon L. Sassler, Cornell University Presider: Sharon L. Sassler, Cornell University Panelists: Brian Powell, Indiana University

Discussant: Suzanne M. Bianchi, University of California-Los Angeles
Over the past few decades there has been considerable discord regarding the form and functions of the American family, and the roles constituent members should play. Demographic change (the increasing prevalence of cohabitation, marital delay, high levels of female labor force participation) and economic challenges (wage stagnation; unemployment) have resulted in substantial proportions of Americans of all ages who must grapple with different family realities than they were raised with. While the American media often portrays the situations resulting from these changes in an amusing light (alpha wives and cougars; men fleeing commitment or grappling clumsily with being fathers), they generally fail to adequately address the tensions inherent in men's and women's beliefs of what the family is supposed to be. This panel examines flash-points in heterosexual intimate relationships and the factors challenging their formation, stability, and quality. Among the issues panelists will address are: How much trust do women have in the men in their lives and the institution of the family? What do men think about the static expectation often imposed on them to be providers, and do they view that as a desirable or attainable goal? Given that the majority of women now work outside the home for pay, what are men's (and women's) expectations regarding domestic labor in the home, or childcare? In other words, what makes the family difficult to sustain?
087. Thematic Session. Legacies of 1886: US Class Formation and Class Conflict in Historical Perspective
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizers: Kim Voss, University of California-
Berkeley Barry Eidlin, University of California-Berkeley
Presider: Frances Fox Piven, City University of New York Panelists: Kim Voss, University of California-Berkeley
Robin Archer, London School of Economics Michael Biggs, University of Oxford
The year 1886 marked a pivotal moment in the history of U.S. class conflict. In that year, a massive strike wave known as The Great Upsurge not only challenged emerging structures of industry and management, but also raised critical issues regarding the form and mission of working class organization, as well as working class political representation. As the ASA gathers in Chicago, an epicenter of the 1886 upsurge, 125 years later, this thematic session not only commemorates the historical events of that year, but also uses them as a starting point to address crucial issues relating to enduring questions of "American exceptionalism," political culture and protest, class formation, social movement emergence/organization, and more.
088. Thematic Session. Tug of War: Men's Violence and Women's Empowerment
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Rae Lesser Blumberg, University of

Investigating the Inverse Relationship between Armed Conflict and Women's Empowerment. Mary Caprioli, University of Minnesota-Duluth
Discussant: Christine E. Bose, State University of New York-Albany
We explore the inverse relationship between men's conflict/violence and
women's empowerment, especially economic empowerment. This increasingly consequential relationship hasn't yet become a major focus of public policy debates. Using the tug-of-war metaphor, panelists examine the groups and trends pushing toward violent patriarchy vs. the more peaceful, gender-egalitarian direction. Though historically (for ~7,000 years), the violent side has dominated, today conflict-prone states/groups are less developed and generally grow at lower rates than the less bellicose. The outcome of this tug-of-war remains unknown. Although armed conflicts have declined since 1992, asymmetric violence still has global repercussions. Moreover, the causal direction of the men's violence/women's empowerment interrelationship is unclear and the association of violence with men alone remains controversial. Mixing panelists who speak to both ends - and macro vs. micro aspects - of the male conflict/violence and female empowerment continuum, from different disciplinary and policy perspectives, should create an illuminating session - with, perhaps, some sparks.
089. Special Session. Assessing Social Change Over Time: The General Social Survey, 1971-2011
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Peter V. Marsden, Harvard University In 1971, sociologist James A. Davis submitted a research proposal arguing that 20 survey questions of general social science interest should be asked of a random sample of adult Americans, and that these data should be disseminated widely and freely for use by researchers and instructors. From these modest beginnings, the General Social Survey (GSS) project developed; to date, it has conducted 27 sample surveys to measure hundreds of variables repeatedly for over 53,000 U.S. adults, and thousands more at least once. Through its participation in and leadership of the International Social Survey Program (ISSP), the GSS has developed important data resources for international comparative survey research. The project has documented more than 16,000 social science publications that draw on GSS data, and hundreds of thousands of undergraduate students have made use of it in social science courses. It is the second most widely-used data source in social science, trailing only the Current Population Survey. In 2011, the GSS will turn 40 and enter its fifth decade. Its data now provide information on aggregate social trends over two generations, spanning a period including many remarkable societal changes. The session will call attention to some prominent substantive contributions to social science that have emerged out of the GSS project.

"Whither the White Coat?" Trust, Authority, and Corporatization. Renee R. Anspach, University of Michigan
The Decline of Corporate Management. Mark S. Mizruchi, University of Michigan
This session takes a contemporary look at classic sociological questions about the professions. It analyzes the professions of law, medicine, and science and technology alongside changes in corporate management to assess the meanings and sources of professional autonomy today and the extent to which this autonomy is constrained (or enabled) by corporate and governmental bureaucracies, market competition, and market ideologies. The session also analyzes how variation in the type of control affects gender and race inequality within and across professional groups. The session makes
contributions to our understanding of professional culture, social inequality, economic sociology, and organizational theory.

Never before in human history have more of us had more (and more diverse) opportunities to wager money than we do today. The sociological implications of this development are complex, as groups, communities, governments, and cultures each develop unique relationships with the gambling act. In this section, panelists will explore shifts in gambling discourses, implications for new work/leisure distinctions, and the impacts of the globalization of this rapidly growing industry. Presenters will bring these analyses "home" to the sociological laboratory of Las Vegas, which often serves as a symbolic capital of gambling and behavioral excess.
093. Didactic Seminar. Climate Change Denial: Organized Counter-Movement and Public Apathy
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Riley E. Dunlap, Oklahoma State
University Leader: Riley E. Dunlap, Oklahoma State University Co-Leaders: Aaron McCright, Michigan State University
Kari Marie Norgaard, Whitman College Global warming poses major threats to both social and natural systems, but societal response has been minimal--especially in the USA—where the threat is met with widespread denial. Two forms of denial have emerged: an organized countermovement among corporate and conservative social actors and more general public apathy or failure to mobilize effectively by individual citizens and civil society. Organized climate change denial emerged in the late 1980s, spear-headed by the fossil fuels industry and corporate interests such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce before becoming entrenched in the U.S. conservative movement. In the 1990s conservative think tanks and industry groups launched an anti-environmental countermovement, and a crucial strategy was undermining the scientific evidence for problems like global warming and thus the need for ameliorative action. Because of the regulatory implications posed by anthropogenic climate change, global warming became the leading target in these efforts to "manufacture uncertainty," and today the entire field of climate science is under attack. Organized denial is flourishing, and having an obvious impact in the political domain. Yet, despite recent declines, a majority of the American public accepts the reality of global warming and expresses some degree of concern about it. Nonetheless, for most people climate change is not viewed as a pressing social or political priority. This "implicatory denial" helps account for the limited success experienced by those seeking to mobilize grass-roots action in support of climate change policy-making. The leaders of the seminar will provide an overview of these two distinct reactions to climate change: organized denial and the more generalized failure to citizens to mobilize or even engage with the problem. We will first examine organized denial, including its ideological
roots, preferred tactics, ever-evolving set of critical actors (think tanks and corporate associations; front groups and astro-turf campaigns; and conservative politicians, media, and bloggers) and its impacts on policy-making and political culture. We will then describe implicatory denial or "climate apathy" as a more pervasive and everyday problem whereby people acknowledge having information about climate change but not thinking about, or acting on, it in their everyday lives. The threat of climate change is acknowledged in the abstract, but disconnected from and invisible within political, social, and private life. The two forms of denial, which are mutually reinforcing, contribute to the lack of societal response to the threat of climate change. A set of relevant readings by the seminar leaders and other social scientists investigating climate change denial will be made available prior to the seminar.

Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Carol A. Jenkins, Glendale Community
College-Arizona Leader: Carol A. Jenkins, Glendale Community College-
Arizona This didactic and interactive session explores the complex nature of academic integrity, factors contributing to the rising rates of plagiarism, the role of culture in defining the ownership of knowledge, the influence of culture in the development of critical reasoning and writing skills, the importance of developing culturally responsive pedagogies, and ways we can develop and expand culturally sensitive responses to detected plagiarism. The session is intended to increase faculty awareness and understanding of the emergent norm of intellectual dishonesty in general, but more specifically, perceived plagiarism among students from diverse socio-cultural and language backgrounds.

The Societal Context of Reception for Veterans. Meredith A. Kleykamp, University of Maryland
Discussant: Ryan D. Kelty, Washington College The long wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have required the largest deployment of both active duty and reserve military personnel by the United States and its allies since World War II. The durations of the wars and the multiple deployments of personnel they have required, the relatively low lethality of the weapons used by the insurgencies in these countries, coupled with major advances in protective equipment and in battlefield medicine, have resulted in few fatalities relative to past wars, but large numbers of combat veterans, significant percentage of whom bear physical and psychological scars of their experience. This panel will present research by leading scholars on the decompression and post-service integration of personnel who have served in the regular and reserve armed forces of the United States and the United Kingdom in either Iraq or Afghanistan. It will address both negative consequences of such deployments such as post-traumatic stress and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and positive consequences such as resilience and post-traumatic growth. The discussion will focus on the experience of homecoming, differences between regular and reserve forces, changes over time, the effectiveness of reintegration programs, and the use of medical and non-medical services.
128. Thematic Session. Conflict at Work Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Vincent J. Roscigno, Ohio State University Presider: Vincent J. Roscigno, Ohio State University We Can't Win This on Our Own: Unions, Firms, and the

129. Thematic Session. Economic Utopias and Dystopias: Possible Trajectories from the Financial Crisis

Economic Categories in Neoliberal Society. Marion Fourcade, University of California-Berkeley; Kieran Healy, Duke University
It is widely recognized that periods of economic crisis are also periods of transformation in the social and political structures which organize the economy. The Great Depression gave rise to the regulated economy of the "Golden Age" of postwar capitalism, characterized by an active state, corporations that offered significant social protection to workers, and a sustained period of relative peace between capital and labor that supported widely shared prosperity. The economic crisis of the 1970s brought a swing in the other direction as markets were unshackled from regulatory constraints, the state retreated from its active role in guiding the economy, and corporations lost the organizational coherence that had characterized firms in preceding decades, chasing after the elixir of quarterly profit reports rather than making longer-term investments in communities and workers. What kind of economic future does the current crisis portend? Rather than offering yet another post-mortem on the financial crisis of 2007-2008, this thematic session takes a step back to consider the various possibilities for social, economic, and political transformation presented by the financial crisis and whether these possibilities are likely to be realized. Thus, this session would invite presenters to consider the crisis as a possible turning point in financial capitalism, with the goal of discerning what kinds of new organizational forms, new popular movements, new regulatory strategies, and new modes of economic discourse we might see emerging in the future (or the obstacles to their emergence).
130. Thematic Session. Pinking Latin American Politics: Feminism and the Left

Can't Distinguish Left from Right: Gender and Sexuality in Peru's 2011 Presidential Campaign. Christina Ewig, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Discussant: Christine E. Bose, State University of New York-Albany
There have always been tensions between feminism and the Left. With the recent renaissance of leftist politics in Latin America, have old conflicts been overcome, or are they reappearing under new guises? This panel addresses the relationship between the current leftist parties and feminism, asking whether "radical" or "social democratic" Leftist parties are more congenial to feminist ideas, how policies such as reproductive rights or women's poverty alleviation are variously integrated into their agendas, and what role gender equality plays in relation to competing demands, such as for indigenous recognition or class-based redistribution?

135. Policy and Research Workshop. How You Can Link Qualitative and Census Data
Caesars Palace Las Vegas Session Organizer: Rae Lesser Blumberg, University of
Virginia Leader: Rae Lesser Blumberg, University of Virginia Co-Leader: Laurie Schwede, US Census Bureau Would you like to learn a free and easy way to access the new 2010 Census data to create custom tables on topics and/or geographical areas or groups of particular interest to you? Would you like to learn how to combine both qualitative and Census data in your research? This workshop provides step-by-step instructions on how social scientists can link qualitative data and newly released 2010 Census data in mixed-methods research projects. We show these linkages of qualitative and quantitative data using our current 2010 Census evaluation study. Laurie Schwede manages a comparative ethnographic program to explore census coverage in different race and ethnic groups. Rae Blumberg conducted one of the qualitative field observation studies in the larger project. First, Laurie Schwede describes the overall study, the methodology and the use of Census data. She presents slides with step-by-step "screen-shot" instructions on how to use the newly restructured, automated American FactFinder system at www.census.gov to generate custom tables with new 2010 Census data on race/ethnicity and household and family structure. She focuses on the site where Rae Blumberg conducted her fieldwork. Second, Rae Blumberg briefly describes some of her preliminary qualitative fieldwork findings, as well as very low-cost rapid appraisal methods she developed in her research in international development; these combine well with Census data. Workshop participants can use the PowerPoint handouts as their guide to creating their own customized data tables, using the newly emerging 2010 Census data in the American FactFinder system. Voila - original research on a shoestring!
