4144 - Emerging Frontiers in Research on Discrimination

Tue, August 13, 8:30 to 10:10am, Sheraton New York, Floor: Lower Level, Flatiron

Session Submission Type: Paper Session 100min

Description

A significant body of sociological scholarship has documented the persistence of discrimination by race, gender, and other social statuses. Continued work, however, is needed to understand the complex mechanisms that give rise to discriminatory behavior. The papers in this session will address emerging frontiers in research on discrimination, including scholarship on underexplored mechanisms driving discrimination as well as the ways that discrimination varies across social contexts. Papers may explore discrimination in any institutional arena – for example, housing markets, credit markets, labor markets, or educational institutions – as well as across any axis of social inequality – such as race, ethnicity, gender, or age.
