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 />
