    This 2005 book surveys six different approaches to the analysis of class, exploring the range of views on this important topic. Few themes have been as central to sociology as 'class' and yet class remains a perpetually contested idea.

  • Book Description

    The idea of class is hotly debated both in academic sociology and in popular culture. Some people believe that classes have largely dissolved in contemporary societies; others believe class remains one of the fundamental forms of social inequality and social power. Some see class as a narrow economic phenomenon whilst others adopt an expansive conception that includes cultural dimensions as well as economic conditions. This book surveys six different approaches to the analysis of class, exploring the range of views on this important topic.

  • Product Description

    Sociologists disagree not only on how best to define "class" but also as to its general role in social theory and continued relevance to sociological analysis. This book explores the theoretical foundations of six major perspectives of class through the contributions of experts in the field. While some assume that classes have largely dissolved, others believe class remains one of the fundamental forms of social inequality and social power. Moreover, some see class as a narrow economic phenomenon, while others adopt an expansive conception.
