ARTICLES

Market Design as Organizational Problem: Explaining System Failures in Platform Markets

Georg Rilinger

System failures occur when organizations managing sociotechnical systems lose control over interactions between components. To prevent such failures, organizations decompose systems into simpler parts and empower frontline experts to manage them in a flat hierarchy. The article examines whether such “modularization” applies to the design of platform markets, focusing on California’s electricity markets between 1995 and 2000. Although modularization seemed like a reasonable technique to avoid system failures, the platforms became vulnerable to persistent gaming. Drawing on rich archival data and interviews, the article finds that the platform markets violated a central requirement for distributed organizations. Market actors, unlike organizational employees, did not cooperate to maintain the relationship between modules. This hindered designers’ ability to prevent, detect, and correct failures. The case reveals a tension between designers’ efforts to coordinate actors via incentives and organizational strategies to manage complex sociotechnical systems, highlighting the need for an organizational sociology of digital marketplaces.

Adjudication Under Cover: Compliance and Inequality in the Criminal Courts

Mary Ellen Stitt

State agencies tasked with governing poverty often aim to improve individuals’ social conditions by transforming their conduct. From welfare offices to prison reentry programs, those agencies work to compel behavioral changes by making the receipt of aid—or punishment—contingent on individuals’ compliance with requirements like appearances for regular appointments and negative drug test results. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in a court-mandated therapeutic program, this study shows how “compliance” with standard behavioral requirements is constructed around health, financial resources, and institutional trust, with the result that the most vulnerable people are systematically marked as noncompliant and channeled toward more punitive interventions. This sorting process helps to legitimize the inequalities it produces: by framing marginalized people as unwilling to accept help to improve themselves and their lives, agencies can justify placing them under more coercive forms of control.

Territoriality and the Emergence of Norms During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Patrick Bergemann and Christof Brandtner

Although social norms are critical for regulating behavior, the emergence of new norms is rarely studied in consequential real-world settings. Thus, the conditions under which norms arise in certain communities but not in others are not well understood. In this article, we propose territoriality as a factor that helps to explain the unequal emergence of norms. When individuals experience a strong sense of territoriality over the physical spaces they inhabit, they feel empowered and justified in regulating others’ behavior within those spaces. To the extent that demand for particular norms is widespread, territoriality can facilitate norm emergence. Using daily, geolocated data from the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City, we find support for this theory; neighborhoods with higher levels of territoriality were more likely to adopt new health-protecting norms. Our territoriality account sheds light on the relationship between norm emergence, physical space, and neighborhood resilience.

Between-Firm Inequality and Informal Social Relations

Nathan Wilmers, Di Tong, and Victoria Y. Zhang

Employer investment, social closure, peer networks: substantial research highlights differences in informal social structure across workplaces. Yet studies of pay inequality between firms have largely neglected these differences in favor of more easily measurable features like firm size or ownership structure. We show how three types of workplace social relations shape firm pay setting: employer relational investment that supports higher wages, social closure as a source of bargaining power, and amenity ties that lock workers into jobs despite low pay. To operationalize these concepts, we draw on text data from a large archive of job reviews. Variance decomposition analyses show that differences in social relations account for up to 20% of overall inequality in between-firm pay premiums and 7% of residual inequality. Differences in informal social organization, and not just formal organization, predict pay differences between firms.

Social Movements in the Commercial Public Sphere: How Women’s Magazines Popularized Second-Wave Feminism

Francesca Polletta,Debra Boka,Caroline Martínez, andMutsumi Ogaki

Social movements have impact by getting their issues into the public sphere, but scholars have conceptualized the public sphere narrowly, focusing on how movements are covered in the news. However, movements appear also in film, television, and other popular cultural forms and in ways that variously amplify, dilute, or transform their claims. We argue that movements’ representation in the public sphere owes less to producers’ personal ideological commitments than to industry norms for providing content to imagined audiences. To make this argument, we reexamine the popular women’s magazines that have been seen as promoting a cult of domesticity against which second-wave feminists struggled. Our comparison of the movement’s representation in five women’s magazines and the New York Times shows that, for entirely commercial reasons, women’s magazines encouraged their more than 50 million readers to care about inequality, not only in the workplace but also in the home. Popular cultural feminism helped liberalize gender attitudes.
