How is this change related to women's attitudes toward unions? What is the profile of women who support union activism? Are there reasons to believe that women's support will continue to increase over time? Using data from the General Social Survey, I examine women's attitudes toward trade unions between 2002 and 2021. Data shows that support for unions is higher among non-white, less-educated, and younger women, as well as among women employed in female-dominated occupations. I conclude by discussing the implications of the findings for current and future labor activism.","PeriodicalId":47716,"journal":{"name":"Work and Occupations","volume":"50 1","pages":"412 - 419"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45080703","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How did allopathic medicine beat out its competitors to become the defining professional group over our experiences of illness and the body? This question is reinvigorated in Daniel Menchik’s new book, Managing Medical Authority. Menchik analyzes an astonishing 12 years of ethnographic data to develop an account of the machinations of authority among cardiologists and their more specialized peers, electrophysiologists. Menchik situates his account in a deep theoretical tradition on how physicians maintain professional authority. At stake in what constitutes a profession is its members’ ability to define problems and establish themselves as the ideal experts to solve such problems. Physicians as a professional group must defend their authority from interlopers—like health insurance or pharmaceutical industries—which have multiplied and intensified around the medical profession since the 1980s. Rather than focusing on how authority is established, Menchik focuses on how physicians continuously manage their authority through status-seeking behaviors. Indeed, as Menchik demonstrates convincingly, interlopers can be a source of not just competition for authority but collaboration and coordination. Menchik’s major theoretical contribution is what he calls “organizing indeterminacy.” Organizing indeterminacy attends to the dynamics by which cardiologists—and, indeed, physicians more broadly—define problems and their solutions. According to Menchik, cardiologists maintain their authority through their ability to set the terms of the problems into Book Reviews","PeriodicalId":47716,"journal":{"name":"Work and Occupations","volume":"50 1","pages":"578 - 580"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45497661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, I argue that confining the scope of the investigation to employed individuals creates a sample selection that disguises the heterogeneous nature of employment instability. The COVID-19 skyrocketing unemployment rate provides both a compelling motivation and a unique opportunity to revisit the construct of precarious work. Using pre-COVID and COVID-19 era data of the working-age population in Israel, the results demonstrate that by pushing less stable individuals out of employment, the COVID-19 recession strengthened the negative relationship between volatility and employment opportunities and accentuated sample selection. Because the selection into employment was not random, this introduces a bias into the measurement of precarious work, one that is more severe during a recession than in a full-employment market. The discussion highlights the broader significance of this lacuna and suggests a way to hone the conceptualization and operationalization of the precarious work construct.</p>","PeriodicalId":47716,"journal":{"name":"Work and Occupations","volume":"50 1","pages":"22-59"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9535454/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48562167","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
