Rethinking Social Inequality, Paperback / softback Book

Rethinking Social Inequality Paperback / softback

Edited by David Robbins, Lesley Caldwell, Graham Day, Karen Jones, Hilary Rose

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: British Sociological Association series

Paperback / softback

Description

Originally published in 1982, Rethinking Social Inequality is a collection of essays looking at the breadth of contemporary work in social inequality.

The book focuses on inequality as a central project of sociological enquiry, and is unified by the overarching rejection of a distributional notion of inequality, in the place of a relational one.

The object of the study is not the deprived social group, but the unequal social relations, which is manifested in a variety of forms.

The themes addressed in this collection indicate a shift in the areas of study concerned with social inequality, rejecting class-based inequality in with that of race, gender and age.
