摘要

长期以来,对社会不平等和分层(如种族和性别)的研究一直是社会学和社会科学的核心。在这篇文章中,我认为某些趋势已经在我们的主导范式中根深蒂固,这使得许多研究人员对差异如何与不平等相关进行粗粒度分析。集中地说,尽管类别和分类对研究人员研究社会不平等的方式很重要,但当代(与经典相反)的类别理论很少融入传统研究。我认为,广泛且经常毫无疑问地使用国家类别作为分析类别,强化了这些趋势。以对色彩主义的研究为灵感,我强调了我所称的不平等亚范畴模型的几个组成部分,该模型敦促研究人员通过将我们的重点从(名义)类别的成员转移到类别的线索、子类别的成员和感知的典型性来分解差异。

Inequality without Groups: Contemporary Theories of Categories, Intersectional Typicality, and the Disaggregation of Difference
The study of social inequality and stratification (e.g., ethnoracial and gender) has long been at the core of sociology and the social sciences. In this article, I argue that certain tendencies have become entrenched in our dominant paradigm that leave many researchers pursuing coarse-grained analyses of how difference relates to inequality. Centrally, despite the importance of categories and categorization for how researchers study social inequality, contemporary (as opposed to classical) theories of categories are poorly integrated into conventional research. I contend that the widespread and often unquestioned use of state categories as categories of analysis reinforces these tendencies. Using research on colorism as an inspiration, I highlight several components of what I call the infracategorical model of inequality, which urges researchers to disaggregate difference by shifting our focus from membership in (nominal) categories to the cues of categories, membership in subcategories, and perceived typicality.

期刊介绍: Published for the American Sociological Association, this important journal covers the full range of sociological theory - from ethnomethodology to world systems analysis, from commentaries on the classics to the latest cutting-edge ideas, and from re-examinations of neglected theorists to metatheoretical inquiries. Its themes and contributions are interdisciplinary, its orientation pluralistic, its pages open to commentary and debate. Renowned for publishing the best international research and scholarship, Sociological Theory is essential reading for sociologists and social theorists alike.
