Doctoral Dissertation
The Micro-Politics of Macro-Categories:
The Contested Relevance of Minority Status in Claims and Denials of Discrimination. Analyzes disputes about discrimination
as a means of addressing the relation(s) between social practices, social identities & social structures. Analysis includes
a critical consideration of the relationship between discrimination and discretionary decision-making which acknowledges that
discrimination in many settings must be understood as an abuse of discretion, but also calls for a much deeper and more balanced
understanding of discretionary decision-making and its organizational contexts than is suggested in much scholarship.
Selected Professional Service
Contributions include service on the editorial board of the journal Human
Studies, service as an article reviewer for eleven other social science journals and book reviewer for multiple publishers,
service as a conference session organizer and a prize committee member for two professional associations, service on the council
