Research Interests

Chiarello's examines stability and change in professional fields by bridging rarely integrated subfields鈥攕ociological theories of organizations and medicine and socio-legal theories of criminality and frontline work. Primarily using qualitative, ethnographic methods, she concentrates on pharmacy, a highly understudied profession caught in the crossfires of contemporary political conflict. She focuses on two particularly controversial types of drugs: emergency contraceptive pills and narcotics. Though these drugs serve very different physical functions, they are subject to overlapping social contexts and similar mechanisms of resistance by political groups.
