    Administrative Science Quarterly Online Table of Contents Alert

    The December 2020 issue of Administrative Science Quarterly is available online:

    Vol. 65, No. 4

     

    This is my final issue as ASQ's editor. I am pleased with how the journal has grown during my time in this role and proud of the diversity of subject matter and methods reflected on our pages. Of course, a journal is irrelevant if it doesn't have a robust community of authors, editors, reviewers, and readers; ASQ is very lucky to have exactly that. I thank you for being part of that community, and I know you will continue to support this journal as Christine Beckman brings her expertise and creativity to the editor role starting in January.

    Job Turf or Variety: Task Structure as a Source of Organizational Inequality

    Nathan Wilmers

    If you don't get paid as much as your coworker, try to stake out your turf-job turf, that is. As firms increase job specialization and decrease the variety of tasks each worker does, that may erode or enhance someone's value. The key is to have a specialized job that no one else is doing.
