It’s the start of a new semester here in Minnesota (where, at the time of writing, it is a balmy one degree) and we’re back to share the latest social science writing from our grad board, partner, and community pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New and Noteworthy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We shared writing from our own Doug Hartmann, published in the Winter 2022 issue<\/a> of Footnotes, on what community-engaged research is and how it can provide meaning, and challenges, to sociologists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Worth a (Look), Sociologically Speaking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Over at Sociological Images<\/a> Evan Stewart<\/a> covers the persistent drop in self-reported happiness<\/a> in the General Social Survey and the potential for both policy (and personal) solutions to improve subjective well being. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Citings and Sightings <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Amanda Mull interviewed sociologist Daniel Schneider<\/a>, who studies precarious and unpredictable work schedules, for the Atlantic on “How Omicron is Making America’s Bad Jobs Even Worse.”<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Backstage with TSP<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

At the request of our graduate board, this semester we’re focusing some of our meetings on writing. As both academics and folks interested in connecting scientific findings with a larger public, we wear a lot of “writing hats” at TSP. Over the course of the semester we hope that talking together about writing will help us think about our collective work at TSP, exploring how to better engage in writing as communication and writing as a collaborative process. If you have a favorite piece on sociological writing, send it our way at tsp@contexts.org. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

More from our Partner and Community Pages<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Council on Contemporary Families’ blog<\/a> shared Dominique C. Hill<\/a>‘s writing A Black Girl\u2019s Crown Changes the Game<\/a>, exploring how her participants defined black girlhood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kennedy Kneller<\/a> wrote for Engaging Sports<\/a> on how the backyard ice rink shatters the myth<\/a> of Canadian hockey as underpinned by community and collective identity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
