Pages 195-203 | Published online: 13 Feb 2019

Notes

  • Edna Bonacich, “‘Making It’ in America: A Social Evaluation of the Ethics of Immigrant Entrepreneurship,” Sociological Perspectives 30 (October 1987), 446–466. “Making It” was written after the Amerasia piece even though it came out earlier. I feel it is a more developed statement of my position.
  • For an excellent analysis of the professional petite bourgeoisie, see Barbara and John Ehrenreich, “The Professional-Managerial Class,” in Between Labor and Capital, edited by Pat Walker (Boston: South End Press, 1979), 5–45.
  • In Ethnic Business Enterprise: Korean Small Business in Atlanta (New York, Center for Migration Studies, 1988), 6, Min tells us that he operated a retail/wholesale business in Atlanta for eight years.
  • Parvin Abyaneh, “Post-migration Economic Role of Females and Patriarchy in Immigrant Iranian Families,” Ph.D. dissertation, University of California, Riverside, 1986.
  • These three models are well laid out in Brian Fay, Social Theory and Political Practice (London: Allen and Unwin, 1975).
  • For an excellent discussion of this method, see Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of the Oppressed (New York: Continuum, 1970). Maoism depended on a similar conception, as shown in William Hinton, Fanshen (New York: Vintage, 1966).
  • For a couple of recent efforts to develop this topic, see my “Marxism in the University: A Search for Consciousness,” forthcoming in Berkeley Journal of Sociology, and “The Loss of Authenticity in Social Science and Research and the Search for New Ways of Knowing,” delivered at the American Sociological Association meetings in Atlanta, August 1988.
