Was a thrill to write this paper, "Charismatic Mimicry" for @SocTheory with the brilliant @DominikZelinsky. We examine how political elites attempted to acquire a charisma-like glow by imitating @ZelenskyyUa's iconic dress in the early days after the invasion. /1

We are pleased to announce that Vrushali Patil @FIU, Zine Magubane @zinemagubane, Omar Lizardo @UCLA, & S.L. Crawley @USouthFlorida will be the next editors of Sociological Theory @SocTheory starting January 1, 2024.

🚨My paper with @matthikaru, The Problem of Class Abstractionism, is up now at @SocTheory. We take on the static and abstract view of working class politics that is becoming increasingly popular and argue for a dynamic and conjunctural alternative. 🧵👇 journals.sagepub.com/home/STX

Something for the weekend: @SocTheory and @ASAnews decided in their eternal wisdom that my article "How Can Theories Represent Social Phenomena?" should be featured, and organized a Podcast interview with me. Thx, also to Jamie Aughenbaugh for a nice talk! journals.sagepub.com/page/stx/podca…

Really excited to share my new article in @SocTheory, focusing on the limitations of dual-process theorizing in contemporary sociology! journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/07…

How do urban environments become familiar? And how do they stop feeling familiar? In our current issue, @MaximeFelder conceptualizes #familiarity as an ongoing relational and interactional achievement journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11… @SAGEsociology #SociologyTheory #SocTwitter

So excited that my new paper (co-authored with my mentor S. L. Crawley and fellow advisee Earles) has dropped at ⁦@SocTheory⁩ Smithing Queer Empiricism: Engaging Ethnomethodology for a Queer Social Science Earles journals.sagepub.com/eprint/BWV7JFU…

@jjbrensinger @AMPallas @ASR_Journal We always change that to a general submission before we send it out to reviewers so that the author’s status as a student is anonymized.
