Studies show that agrarian frames are differentiated into types based on farmers’ historical and contemporary racialized experiences. To investigate the role that agrarian frames play in navigating farm stress, we conducted a thematic analysis using data from interviews with 15 Black farmers from three Southern states. The results identify a Black Agrarian frame with two dimensions: traumatic and resilient. The traumatic dimension provides a system-blame narrative that highlights financial risk driven by institutions and racism as a core factor in farm stress. The resilient dimension describes collective action as a key coping strategy linked to understanding the farm as a multi-faceted asset. In conclusion, research on differentiated agrarian frames is an important component towards understanding how diverse populations navigate farm stress and the development of culturally appropriate resources for addressing it.}, journal={JOURNAL OF AGROMEDICINE}, author={Smolski, Andrew R. and Schulman, Michael D.}, year={2023}, month={Nov} } @article{bloom_hardison-moody_schulman_2018, title={Bonding and bridging: Leveraging immigrant and refugee community assets to support healthy eating}, volume={49}, ISSN={1557-5330 1944-7485}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/15575330.2018.1431682}, DOI={10.1080/15575330.2018.1431682}, abstractNote={Abstract Studies of acculturation show that immigrants/refugees who fully adapt to US diets have worse health outcomes than those who remain socially isolated; however, social isolation limits access to resources. We combine a bi-directional model of acculturation with the community capitals framework, suggesting improved outcomes when immigrant/refugee communities maintain healthy traditions from their home countries through bonding social capital, while accessing resources through bridging social capital to practice those traditions in the US context. We apply this lens to a research/outreach project that worked with two immigrant/refugee communities in North Carolina. Facilitating communities’ bridging social capital resulted in increased access to resources, as well as maintenance of healthy food traditions in some cases. Bonding social capital was an internal resource, but also had the potential to inadvertently recreate internal power dynamics. Community developers need to be aware of this, while creating opportunities for community context and assets to drive project development.}, number={2}, journal={Community Development}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Bloom, J.

Researchers document differentials in obesity rates by race, socioeconomic status, school characteristics, and place. In this study, the authors examine the impact of race on the likelihood of obesity at the student, school, and county levels and the interactions between student race and school racial composition. The data are from 74,661 third to fifth grade students in 317 schools in 38 North Carolina counties. Multilevel logistic regression models showed that racial differences in the likelihood of obesity persisted even when racial composition and socioeconomic disadvantage at the school level were controlled. The differences between white and nonwhite students slightly decreased once school-level measures were added. The magnitude of the effects of student-level race on the relative odds of obesity varied according to the racial composition of the school. These student- and school-level results held even when county-level race and socioeconomic variables were controlled. The results show that contextual factors at the school and county levels are important social determinants of racial disparities in the likelihood of childhood obesity. }, number={2}, journal={Sociology of Race and Ethnicity}, publisher={SAGE Publications}, author={Piontak, Joy Rayanne and Schulman, Michael D.}, year={2017}, month={Aug}, pages={245–260} } @article{schulman_2016, title={An accidental rural sociologist}, journal={Rural Sociologists at Work: Candid Accounts of Theory, Method, and Practice}, author={Schulman, M.

Methods A cross-sectional telephone survey was conducted in 2003 among English-speaking parents of working adolescents aged 14–18 years in the continental United States. Questions addressed parental concerns about adolescents' employment and potential safety issues at work. Results Most parents expressed favorable attitudes about adolescent employment, although many expressed concerns about fatigue (48%), problems completing schoolwork (33%), or spending time with families (35%). Half of all parents indicated concerns about adolescents being present during a robbery, and 40–50% were concerned about adolescents working alone or not having adequate safety training. Parents were favorable to laws that regulate the teen work environment, although most (69%) also indicated that parents, not laws, should determine the work that teens do. Conclusions Parents of working teens are favorable to their teens working, but they do have varied concerns about safety. Although many parents believe they should set the rules about teen work, they are also generally supportive of governmental regulation of hours and tasks.

DESIGN A cross-sectional telephone survey. SETTING North Carolina. PARTICIPANTS Adolescents (aged <18 years) with work permits for the construction industry in North Carolina during summer 2001. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Types of jobs, work tasks, supervisory conditions, tools, equipment, and processes. RESULTS A total of 187 survey respondents were in this study. Adolescents were employed in varied construction settings and business types. Nineteen of the 187 permitted workers were younger than 16 years, despite prohibitions against their employment in construction unless working for their parents. The remainder (n = 168) were working legally based on age, but most performed prohibited tasks. In fact, 84% of all the 16- to 17-year-olds had performed at least 1 clearly prohibited task and 47% had performed 3 or more. Although most reported being supervised and working with others, approximately 19% of all respondents reported working where they were not in hearing distance of other workers. Data were collected from teenagers with work permits, suggesting that these adolescents may work for more responsible employers. If violations of child labor laws exist in this group, it is likely that adolescents without permits are exposed to even greater hazards and violations.

Our analysis of the political economy of the southern textile industry in the United States emphasizes the embeddedness of the industry in a local security zone and the complexities of uncertainly reduction as responses to globalization. Using county-level data on textile employment and socio-economic conditions (1974-1997), we analyze the spatial reorganization of textile production within the U.S. South.

Textile firms and communities in the South have undergone restructuring: technology and labor processes have modernized, firms have merged, consolidated, or closed, and the number of workers has declined. An analysis of Cannon Mills and its associated mill community of Kannapolis identifies the sources of the paternalist form of social capital that dominated work and community social relations. Corporate mergers, downsizing, technological change, shifts in the labor market, municipal incorporation, and labor organizing contributed to the transformation and decline of paternalistic social capital. The case study reminds social scientists that social capital is a context dependent form of power that can be created, accumulated, or destroyed. While many current analyses treat social capital as an unquestioned positive force, the case study reveals the dark side of social capital.}, number={3}, journal={Rural Sociology}, author={Schulman, Michael and Anderson, C.}, year={1999}, pages={351–372} } @inbook{anderson_schulman_1999, place={Philadelphia, PA}, series={Women in the political economy}, title={Women, Restructuring and Textiles: The Increasing Complexity of Subordination and Struggle in a Southern Community}, ISBN={9781566396790 9781566396806}, booktitle={Neither Separate Nor Equal: Women, Race, and Class in the South}, publisher={Temple University Press}, author={Anderson, C. and Schulman, M.}, editor={Smith, Barbara EllenEditor}, year={1999}, pages={91–108}, collection={Women in the political economy} } @article{zakocs_runyan_schulman_dunn_evensen_1998, title={Improving safety for teens working in the retail trade sector: Opportunities and obstacles}, volume={34}, ISSN={["0271-3586"]}, DOI={10.1002/(SICI)1097-0274(199810)34:4<342::AID-AJIM7>3.0.CO;2-U}, abstractNote={BACKGROUND Using both quantitative and qualitative data, this study examined teen workers' perceptions about their work environments and the ways in which teens believe workplaces can be made safer.

RESULTS Survey findings indicate one-fifth of teens used equipment they thought dangerous; nearly 40% always or often felt rushed at work; and about half received training on how to avoid injury. Teens in the focus groups expressed concerns about workplace physical hazards, the threat of assault, being rushed, and having little power in the work environment.

However, little is known about the environments in which youth work or the hazards to which they are exposed. The purpose of this study was to document the patterns of work, exposures to hazardous equipment and situations, and work-related injury experiences of adolescents.We identified a statewide targeted sample of North Carolina households with teens age 14-17 years and interviewed those who had ever worked for pay or worked on a farm.Five hundred sixty-two teens from 700 eligible households reported that they had worked non-farm jobs for pay. One-third were paid for work before age 14 years; two-thirds had held more than one paid job. Place of employment was most often someone's home, a retail store, or a restaurant. Common jobs were lawn care worker, cashier, and dishwasher. Common hazards to which teens were exposed included ladders or scaffolding; forklifts, tractors or riding mowers; and working around loud noises. Over half were injured at least once while working a paid job, most often from being cut or burned.Work among youth is common. Teens hold a variety of jobs, mostly in the retail trade and the service sector, exposing them to hazardous equipment and situations. Injuries at work are frequent and some are serious.

Using survey data collected from a random sample of working teens (ages 14 to 17) in North Carolina, the authors analyze the farm‐based hazard exposure and injury experiences of teens who work on farms. The group of farmworking teens (N=141) is 72 percent male, has a mean age of 16.6 years, and is, on average, in the 10th grade. The data show that teens working on farms in North Carolina are exposed to significant safety hazards throughout their farmworking careers. A majority of the respondents in this group of farmworkers reported exposure to tractors, large animals, all‐terrain vehicles, farm trucks, and rotary mowers, and more than one‐third reported exposure to pesticides and tobacco harvesters. Common reported injuries include insect stings, cuts, burns, and falls. The researchers find that gender, age, and farmwork experiences are related to variations in types of hazards to which teens are exposed and in the types of injuries they suffer. These variables also are related to the overall complexity of the teens' farmwork experiences and the burden of injury endured by teens.}, number={4}, journal={Journal of Rural Health}, author={Schulman, M.D. and Evensen, C. and Runyan, C.W. and Cohen, L. and Dunn, K.}, year={1997}, pages={295–305} } @article{cohen_runyan_dunn_schulman_1996, title={Work patterns and occupational hazard exposures of North Carolina adolescents in 4-H clubs.}, volume={2}, ISSN={1353-8047}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/ip.2.4.274}, DOI={10.1136/ip.2.4.274}, abstractNote={OBJECTIVES: This study documents sex differences in work patterns, injuries, and hazard exposures among adolescents in homes, farms, and other work sites. METHODS: 14 to 17 year old 4-H club members were asked to complete self administered questionnaires regarding their lifetime experience of work, hazard exposure, and injuries. RESULTS: Of 323 respondents, more than two thirds had ever worked paid jobs. Fifty seven per cent were injured during non-farm work and hazards were part of the non-farm work environment for 54% of the respondents. Males were more likely to work in hazardous conditions, including operating heavy equipment on farms or construction sites. Almost three quarters of the teens who worked on farms reported being injured there and 100% were exposed to at least one farm hazard. CONCLUSIONS: Adolescents perform jobs at homes, farms, or other work sites where they are exposed to numerous safety hazards.

Among farms that reported some type of change, postponing farm or household purchases, restructuring financial liabilities, and increasing family income were the most widely utilized adaptations. Variables measuring farm and household economic hardship discriminate the group that used any type of adaptation from the group that attempted no changes. Multinomial logistic regression was used to examine the effect of adaptation use on survival in agriculture. Farm operations that attempted any type of change in their use of labor and capital were the ones that ultimately did not survive in agriculture.

This article is a commentary on the present status of the literature and particularly on a recent article by Barnes and Blevins (1992). Our arguments draw in large part from our previous work. Researchers in the 1970s and early 1980s were concerned mainly with replicating Goldschmidt's work. However, these studies had a number of methodological and conceptual limitations that limited closure on the debate. A new generation of research from the mid‐1980s onward was premised upon addressing the limitations, including the need to incorporate indicators of nonfarm economic structure, to take spatial or geographic features into account, and to adequately conceptualize farm structure. Barnes and Blevins (1992) disregard these inroads, evident in that their article repeats earlier arguments, offers solutions to problems addressed a decade earlier, and is vulnerable to its own methodological problems. To move inquiry forward, new directions for studies concerned with the broader issues raised by Goldschmidt are suggested.}, number={2}, journal={Rural Sociology}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Lobao, Linda M. and Schulman, Michael D. and Swanson, Louis E.}, year={1993}, month={Jun}, pages={277–288} } @inbook{schulman_1993, place={New York}, title={Theories in the Study of Natural Resource-Dependent Communities and Persistent Rural Poverty in the United States}, ISBN={9780429301391}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.4324/9780429301391-6}, DOI={10.4324/9780429301391-6}, booktitle={Persistent Poverty in Rural America}, publisher={Routledge}, author={Schulman, M.}, editor={Castle, Emery N.Editor}, year={1993}, pages={136–172} } @article{lobao_schulman_1991, title={Farming Patterns, Rural Restructuring, and Poverty: A Comparative Regional Analysis}, volume={56}, ISSN={0036-0112}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1549-0831.1991.tb00447.x}, DOI={10.1111/j.1549-0831.1991.tb00447.x}, abstractNote={Abstract This study examines the contentions of two recent perspectives on rural economic organization and their implications for poverty. Building from (1) agrarian political economy and (2) the rural restructuring literatures, we present a comparative regional analysis of how farming patterns and other aspects of economic organization differentially affect poverty in rural areas. Data are based on 2,349 nonmetropolitan U.S. counties for the 1970–1980 period. Nonhired labor‐dependent, family‐operated farming (smaller and larger family farming) has relatively similar cross‐regional effects on rural poverty. The effects of industrialized farming are more spatially variant, suggesting that this type of farming is integrated into regional political economies in different ways than are simple commodity units. However, farming patterns have only a small effect on rural poverty relative to other factors, such as the local employment structure, characteristics of the population, and geographic location. The results of this study highlight the need to move beyond the farm sector to understand both the dynamics of this sector and the socioeconomic consequences of rural restructuring. More broadly, the study underscores the importance of testing general sociological relationships under different spatial (e.g., regional) contexts.}, number={4}, journal={Rural Sociology}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Lobao, Linda M. and Schulman, Michael D.}, year={1991}, month={Dec}, pages={565–602} } @book{jeffrey leiter_rhonda zingraff_1991, title={Hanging by a thread social change in southern textiles}, publisher={Ithaca, NY: ILR Press}, author={Jeffrey Leiter, Michael D.

The theories of Lenin and Chayanov also highlight the role of demographic and socioeconomic factors in the differentiation of the peasantry. Panel data from a survey of black small‐scale farm operators in the North Carolina Piedmont are used to test hypotheses based upon the Lenin‐Chayanov debate. A multivariate analysis shows that black farmers who survived owned tobacco quota, had more on‐farm household labor, had smaller households, and had higher gross farm incomes than those who left agriculture. These results point to the need to synthesize Lenin's macro‐level focus on class formation and Chayanov's micro‐level focus on enterprise formation in order to understand smallholder persistence. Over the five‐year period studied, approximately 50 percent of the original respondents were no longer actively operating farms indicating that the future of the black smallholder remains precarious.}, number={2}, journal={Rural Sociology}, author={Schulman, Michael and Newman, B.

Senior agriculturalist, full‐time, and part‐time smallholders are the descriptive names given to the types identified. The value of cluster analysis for typology creation is demonstrated through an analysis of which farm operators left agriculture during the drought and low‐farm‐income crisis of 1981 to 1983.

Investigations of this question have been framed by reference to the experiences of newly proletarianized workers‐their path to the factory via farming and their industrial experience or socialization into nonfarm working class life. Some argue that newly proletarianized workers are prone to militancy due to their inexperience with factory discipline and marginal workplace positions. Others maintain that the characteristics of recently arrived workers fail to promote or may even inhibit militancy. These competing perspectives are examined by analyzing the effects of farm background and personal and intergenerational industrial experience on four measures of militancy for a sample of textile workers from a Southern community.

Class consciousness is treated as an ordinal variable consisting of class verbalization, class action orientation, and endorsement of egalitarian change. Union support denotes a recognition of the union's instrumental role in improving work and working conditions. The analysis reveals that blacks are significantly more class conscious and pro-union than whites. On the other hand, males and females tend to share similar levels of class consciousness and union support. Comparisons by race, within gender and by gender, within race, are provided for finer distinctions and extended discussion. A multiple classification analysis reveals that racial differences persist and that gender differences remain unimportant when the covariates of age, job dissatisfaction, education, income, and skill are considered.}, number={2}, journal={The Sociological Quarterly}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Schulman, Michael D. and Zingraff, Rhonda and Reif, Linda}, year={1985}, month={Jun}, pages={187–204} } @article{zingraff_schulman_1984, title={Social Bases of Class Consciousness: A Study of Southern Textile Workers with a Comparison by Race}, volume={63}, ISSN={0037-7732}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.2307/2578860}, DOI={10.2307/2578860}, abstractNote={Journal Article Social Bases of Class Consciousness: A Study of Southern Textile Workers with a Comparison by Race Get access Rhonda Zingraff, Rhonda Zingraff Meredith College Address correspondence to Rhonda Zingraff, Department of Sociology and Social Work, Meredith College, Raleigh, NC 27611.

The success of any policy aimed at regional economic development is at least partially contingent on support from the rural-hinterland people who are both the policy's target and its ultimate vehicle of implementation. The failure of a target population to cooperate with and participate in programs designed to realize policy objectives may lead to a policy's doom. Knowledge of the attitudes towards a growth-centers policy of people who have experienced or will experience the policy's impact helps assess the prospects for the policy's success. This present article examines patterns of opposition to and support for growth centers among a target population for the policy and notes the implications for regional development policy in general.}, number={2}, journal={Growth and Change}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Martinson, Oscar B. and Schulman, Michael}, year={1977}, month={Apr}, pages={31–37} } @article{schulman_silva_christeller_1976, title={An Empirical Examination of Order and Conflict Theories of Social Problems as Competing Ideologies}, volume={16}, journal={Sociological Symposium}, author={Schulman, Michael D. and Silva, Edward T. and Christeller, Catherine A.}, year={1976}, pages={45–62} } @article{schulman_canak_1976, title={Pedagogy in Prisons: The Structure and Practice of Teaching Sociology in a `Total Institution'}, volume={13}, journal={The Wisconsin Sociologist}, author={Schulman, Michael D. and Canak, William L.}, year={1976}, pages={30–38} }
