CSDE Seminar - Gendered Dissent and Social Threat: Attitudes Towards Protest Repression in Colombia - Gabriella Levy

Speaker: Michael Shultz, Evans School of Public Policy & Governance, University of Washington Speaker: Kristin Perkins, Sociology, Georgetown University Speaker: Gabriella Levy, Political Science, University of Washington Abstract: What determines support for police restraint in times of social protest? Previous research shows perceptions of protest violence increase support for repression. We argue that protests violating social norms are also seen as less deserving of restraint— even when they pose no physical threat. Focusing on gender-related protests, we test this argument using a survey experiment in Bogot´a, Colombia, which like many cities in Latin America has repeatedly experienced women-led protests in recent years. Our results show that protests for LGBTQ+ rights and expanded abortion access reduce support for restraint compared to demands that are less threatening to the social order, even though perceptions of violence do not vary by protest goals. Non-violent protest tactics that violate tradi… Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Parrington Hall (PAR).

CSDE Seminar - Infrastructures of Resettlement: How Bureaucratic Legacies Shaped Racial Disparities in Post-Cold War Refugee Selection - Jake Watson

Speaker: Michael Shultz, Evans School of Public Policy & Governance, University of Washington Speaker: Kristin Perkins, Sociology, Georgetown University Speaker: Gabriella Levy, Political Science, University of Washington Speaker: Robert Crosnoe, Sociology, The University of Texas at Austin Speaker: Jake Watson, Sociology, University of California San Diego Abstract: This paper draws on migration infrastructure perspectives to theorize how states select refugees. After the Cold War, the United States shifted its refugee admissions program from a focus on anticommunism toward more humanitarian criteria, marked by greater need-based selection and distributional equity – including explicit efforts to increase African admissions. Yet the 1990s saw the US resettle roughly 300,000 Europeans and just 40,000 Africans despite comparably large displacement crises in Yugoslavia and the Horn of Africa. Why? While scholars explain such disparities through explicit racial preferences or geopolitical interests, I show t… Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Parrington Hall (PAR).
