Zusammenfassung
Populists and capitalists conceptualize academic public
writing as a democratizing process. I argue that interlocking
structures of oppression contour neoliberal academic appeals for
public scholarship. Using data from a public academic blog, I
conceptualize the attention economy as stratified by attenuated
status groups. I also discuss the methodological promise of digital
texts for sociological inquiry.
