Airbnb and Collective Memory & Neighborhood Dogs’ Impact on Crime This Week in Sociological Perspective

This week we discuss national implications of some of the characteristics advertised as amenities on Airbnb. But first, I recently spoke with Nicolo Pinchak of Ohio State University about his recent paper titled “Paws on the Street: Neighborhood-Level Concentration of Households with Dogs and Urban Crime.” The paper is to be published in Social Forces, and is co-authored by Christopher R. Browning, Bethany Boettner, Catherine A. Calder, Jake Tarrence.
