Read MoreThe moment of insurgency becomes a more enduring movement in part through the changes it induces in the relations among the Social Movement Organizations in its orbit.
Read MoreAnalyzing an inventory of more than 1,000 averted and completed lynching events in three Southern states, we model geographic and temporal patterns in the determinants of mob formation, state intervention, and intervention success.

Read MoreThis study looks at the diagnosis age and symptom severity of those diagnosed with autism and the relationship to Assisted Reproductive Technology.

Read MoreExisting literature focuses on economic competition as the primary causal factor in Southern lynching. Political drivers have been neglected, as findings on their effects have been inconclusive. We show that these consensus views arise from selection on a contingent outcome variable: whether mobs intent on lynching succeed.
