Schneiberg continues his work on associations, regulation and alternatives to the corporation in the American economy, which appears in SocioEconomic Review, Politics and Society, American Journal of Sociology, Sociological Perspectives, Organizational Studies, Sociological Forum, American Sociological Review, and Research in the Sociology of Organizations. He has studied enterprise alternatives to corporations, regulation and their interaction with social movements in a number of industries, including food, electricity, insurance and banking. He is currently completing an NSF funded project on how different kinds of lending institutions channel credit away from–or toward– borrowers in under-resourced Black and brown communities in order to discern possibilities for more just and inclusive lending within the US banking system. In this project, he also considers a more inclusive set of lenders –Community Development Financial Institutions–and how they work alone and in collaboration with community based organizations and other actors to increase credit access for poor and minority communities. Courses taught include American Capitalism; Organizations: Cooperatives and Nonprofit; Race, Economy, Policy; Institutional Analysis; and Research Methods.
