I work in the areas of feminist political theory and political psychology. My research focuses on identity groups, group ideologies and cultures, and the dynamics of leadership. Before coming to OSU, I taught at George Washington University and the University of Florida in both political science and women's studies.
The Problem of the Passions: Feminism, Psychoanalysis, and Social Theory, was published by New York University Press in 1994, and
Fundamental Differences: Feminists Talk Back to Social Conservatives, which I edited with Jyl J. Josephson, was published by Rowman & Littlefield in 2003. Cornell University Press published
Healing Identities: Black Feminist Thought and the Politics of Groups in 2004. My new book is
Sin, Sex, and Democracy: Antigay Politics and the Christian Right, published by State University of New York Press. Jyl J. Josephson and I are currently editing a new book series at SUNY in "Queer Politics and Cultures."
