title: A Pain Halved; A Joy Doubled: How We Share with Those Who Matter

description: In this dissertation I will present disclosure strategies that are used to communicate experiences of pain and joy, as well as their implications for people’s concepts of the self and interpersonal relationships. I conducted 58 semi-structured interviews where I collected information about my participants’ confidants and disclosure practices to explain how people share pain and joy within their networks. In the first half of the dissertation, I present descriptive statistics and general patterns. For instance, my participants discussed a wide array of topics with an average of 5 people, and yet tended to compartmentalize to some extent, mostly sharing health matters with family and relationship matters with friends. Mothers are the go-to person (especially for young women), but people also tell personal news to strangers and others who just happen to be nearby. Most of the times like chooses like, but when emotions are involved, men will seek out women. 
In the second half of the dissertation analyze my respondents’ experience with sharing, as well as responding to pain and joy. I identify four strategies that were used when disclosing emotions: moderation (altering the intensity or amount of emotion shared), concealment (hiding the emotion), matching (reaching out to people with similar experiences), and branching out (disclosing to people outside of one’s network of confidants). Strategies are not chosen rationally, with a clear end in mind. Instead, they are sets of adaptations that allowed my study participants to navigate their networks and changing selves. Occasionally the strategies succeed in maintaining homeostasis within relationships, but just as often they do more harm than good and contribute to resentment and misunderstanding.
In conclusion I highlight the strengths of this study as a foray into meta-feelings and meta-thoughts that reveal fractured and sometimes incongruent attitudes around pain and joy. I also outline avenues for future work that can trace more precisely how disclosure is perceived by others and whether impressions match intents.

title: Creativity, Attraction, and Rhythm: Aesthetic Experience in the Sociology of Culture

description: For a long time, Sociology of Aesthetics has meant a study of status, showing how people use culture to place each other in hierarchies and to form boundaries between groups. Well-grounded in field theory, this approach to aesthetics has proven robust and flexible, applicable to a wide variety of culture industries and modes of reception. However, in the aesthetics of field theory, the cultural objects being classified are incidental. Aesthetics is fundamentally about sorting people, not about relationships with cultural objects. In this dissertation, I make some gentle critiques of the prevailing field theory approach to aesthetics in sociology. I develop an alternative approach to sociological aesthetics, grounded in John Dewey’s Art as Experience (1934). The following three essays each make a different entry to introducing Deweyan aesthetics. The first essay, “The Creative Self in Alienation and Aesthetic Experience,” uses a broadly theoretical method, synthesizing Dewey’s concept of aesthetic experience with Marx’s concept of alienation. This essay makes the point that creativity and aesthetics are closely related experiences, with implications for action, social change, and power. More specifically, it draws out aesthetic experience as a material and temporal experience, which I elaborate in the following essays. The second essay, “Objects of Attraction,” focuses on the material component of aesthetic experience, arguing that aesthetics is a study of human relationships with the material environment. I call this approach “ecological pragmatism.” This essay examines the relationship between bluegrass musicians and their instruments, proposing the concept of “attraction” as an aesthetic motivator, rather than the “status” motivation of field theory. The third essay, “Familiar Rhythm: The Limits of Boundaries in Analyzing Taste,” explores the temporal component of aesthetic experience, arguing that metaphors with temporality are better suited to understanding aesthetics than field theory’s analysis of boundaries. I introduce the concept of “rhythm,” and analyze the recurrence and recognition of cover songs at different bluegrass festivals.

title: Sexual Empowerment: Resources and Tensions in a Feminist Sexual Script

description: This dissertation is a qualitative study exploring the potential of feminism as an alternative sexual script. Feminist scholars have long been concerned with the sexual wellbeing of women, and particularly of young girls. In their critique of interpersonal power relations, poor sex education, and the sexualization of culture they implicitly highlight feminism as a way to sexually empower women. Yet, we have little empirical evidence of this assumed feminist impact on sexual outcomes. This dissertation fills this gap through in-depth interviews with feminist women in relationships with men. Comprised of three substantive chapters which demonstrate 1) how feminist women explain their motivations to engage in sex and the criterion they use to assess the quality of sex; 2) the pathways through which feminist women achieve “good sex,” and 3) the barriers to easy achievement of good sex in long term relationships, this dissertation argues that feminism as an alternative sexual script both enables and constrains good sex and sexual empowerment. Feminist women demonstrate high levels of intrapersonal empowerment: they believe deeply in equality and in their entitlement to the benefits of sexuality. They also show interactional empowerment (awareness of the needed resources or skills for achieving good sex) and behavioral empowerment (intentionally taking action to achieve their desired sexual outcomes) in specific domains of their sexuality. However, that empowerment is constrained by the limitations of their understanding of feminist sex. The power of feminism for these women is as an emotional and intellectual tool to process their experiences and the world around them, in order to identify problems. Developing their feminist identity enables feminist critique of past sexual partners, of their own prior sexual behaviors, and the cultural constraints under which they live. In fact, this critique can also be applied to some of their own feminist values – as they did when questioning the appropriate role of orgasm in sex. But their feminism does not readily supply them with solutions. Only through interactional trial and error with a sexual partner who shares their baseline sexual values and is willing to work to create practices, can “good” partnered sex be achieved. Therefore, theorizing sexual empowerment within partnered sex needs to be a relational endeavor.

title: Racing Towards Global Racial Capitalism: Investigating the Impact of Racial and Gender Inequality on the Platform Economy

description: In this dissertation project, I explore how racialized and gendered stereotypes shape peer-to-peer transactions with the platform economy. Additionally, I demonstrate that racial capitalism changes the way we understand the impact and use of rating systems, in that these systems reproduce racialized gendered ideologies. I address how Black platform workers find new ways to use worker-provided tools within the platform economy to combat racialized surveillance within the on-demand side of the platform economy. Lastly, I argue that the narrative surrounding platform work as perpetuated by platform application companies hides the extent to which persistent racial occupational segregation in the formal economy systematically pushes Black workers into the platform economy.

title: Escaping the Polarization Paradox: The Possibility, Desirability, and Pursuit of Bridging America's Political Divide

description: In this dissertation, I examine political depolarization as a social phenomenon in its own right. While much work is being done on this topic in terms of interventions to bring it about, it is important to step back and consider broader questions about it, such as how it is defined, how it is even possible in highly polarized times (a question I call the polarization paradox), who is interested in it, and who is working to bring it about. I answer these questions in a series of three substantive chapters. The first looks at the conditions of possibility around depolarization and argues that depolarization is only possible inasmuch as 1) there is a dimension of human personhood that exists beyond ideology and identity, and 2) the experience of personhood makes distinctive moral claims on us that challenge us to rethink where we stand on particular issues (ideological depolarization), who we feel most ethically responsible for (identity depolarization), and our way of being toward those who think or feel differently than us (affective depolarization). The second chapter proposes a new type and measure of polarization called “recognition polarization”—measured by accounting for patterns of missing data in feeling thermometers toward Democrats and Republicans—that uniquely explains disinterest in joining formal depolarization efforts when standard polarization measures do not. And lastly, the third chapter examines whether organizations that seek to bridge political divides directly are themselves as partisan and divided as other depolarization organizations who only contribute to bridging divides indirectly, and finds mixed evidence for this. Overall, I argue that depolarization ought to be understood in the positive, not just as the opposite of polarization, and that the ethics of personhood, the phenomenon of recognition, and the institutional logic of bridging can help us understand and escape the polarization paradox.
