Fines, Fees, and Families: Monetary Sanctions As Stigmatized Intergenerational Exchange tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Unlike helping an adult child with, say, a down payment on a home, paying their court fines and fees is a 'stigmatized transfer,' putting extra financial and emotional strain on parents and parent-child relationships. -Veronica Horowitz et al in The Sociological Quarterly tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Relatedly, I really want to underline wonderful managing works by The Sociological Quarterly. I received some of the most thoughtful and enganing reviews in my career, and the turnaround was really fast! (~40 days until the arrival of the first set of reviews) Will submit pieces again!

New paper alert! This is an ethnography on the process of scientists' internalization of boundary work. I call this boundary-training. I've always wanted to write about daily signals that encourage scientists to comfortably say they are apolitical, and this is it! Hope you enjoy!

Really interesting new research by my friend June Jeon. I have many anecdotes of such boundary-training processes. Congratulations!

NEW IN TSQ
