Stemming from Max Weber (1946 [1919]), many sociologists understand legitimate violence as monopolized by the state. The literature has established that for the state to maintain legitimacy it must either demonstrate sustained efficacy or have its legitimacy based on the values of its citizens (Lipset 1963a). The statistics on gun control in the United States (Giffords Law Center 2020) and sociological literature (e.g., Hill et al. 2020a, 2020b) demonstrate the sustained inefficacies of gun rights. Thus, this article investigates the legitimacy of these rights in terms of voters’ political values. I use a case set (Small 2009) of 120 voters interviewed in Arizona from 2013 to 2015. My analysis is an example of qualitative secondary analysis (Duchesne 2017; Belot and Van Ingelgom 2017; Davidson et al. 2019). My findings confirm and extend the literature on the bases of legitimate violence in the United States (e.g., Shapira and Simon 2018; Carlson 2019). Furthermore, my findings provide evidence of voter socialization into a political culture that uses public, declarative, and non‐declarative forms of culture in conjunction (e.g., Lizardo 2017). These findings also bridge the sociological literature on values (Wuthnow 2008), political sociology (Lipset 1963a), the sociology of culture (Miles 2015), and moral psychology (Haidt 2012).

国家对合法暴力行为的垄断的普遍依据:美国选民如何利用政治价值来(合法)持枪权

源自马克斯·韦伯(Max Weber,1946 [1919]),许多社会学家理解国家垄断的合法暴力。文献已经确定,要使国家保持合法性,它要么必须表现出持续的效力,要么必须具有基于其公民价值的合法性(Lipset 1963a)。美国有关枪支管制的统计数据(吉福德大学法律中心,2020年)和社会学文献(例如,希尔等人,2020a,2020b)证明了枪支权利的持续低效。因此,本文从选民的政治价值观角度研究了这些权利的合法性。我使用2013年至2015年在亚利桑那州接受采访的120名选民的案例集(2009年小)。我的分析是定性二级分析的一个例子(Duchesne 2017; Belot和Van Ingelgom 2017; Davidson等人2019)。我的发现证实并扩展了以美国合法暴力为基础的文献(例如,夏皮拉(Shapira)和西蒙(Simon)2018年;卡尔森(Carlson)2019年)。此外,我的发现提供了选民社会化为政治文化的证据,该政治文化将公共,声明性和非声明性文化形式结合在一起使用(例如,Lizardo,2017年)。这些发现也弥合了关于价值的社会学文献(Wuthnow 2008),政治社会学(Lipset 1963a),文化社会学(Miles 2015)和道德心理学(Haidt 2012)。
