Two approaches to racism<br />
XI. Conclusions<br />
a. Two forms of opportunity hoarding?<br />
i. by organizations: “a well-bounded set of ties in which at least<br />
one site has the right to establish ties across the boundary…”<br />
ii. by informal networks: triads + categorical pairs<br />
b. Critique of Dunk, Ch. 5<br />
i. Dunk starts to put the Boys racism in a relational context, but<br />
keeps sliding into its cultural roots instead<br />
c. Tilly’s approach<br />
i. social structure of durable inequality: opportunity hoarding &<br />
exploitation,<br />
ii. culture as a repertoire of stories and beliefs that justify<br />
categorical inequalities of class and ‘race’<br />
