Social Stratification: Class, Race, and Gender in Sociological Perspective Paperback - 2014
by David B. Grusky
From the rear cover
"[This text] reflects a clear vision of the scientific and intellectual history of the field, but it will also shape research and scholarship for years to come. For researchers, teachers, and students, "Social Stratification" will be an indispensable resource." Robert M. Hauser, National Research Council
"The revised edition of "Social Stratification" is the definitive reader in the field A must-read." Barbara Reskin, University of Washington
With income inequality on the rise and the ongoing economic downturn, the causes, consequences, and politics of inequality are undergoing a fundamental transformation. Updated and highly accessible, the fourth edition of "Social Stratification" provides refreshing take on existing theories, incorporates the latest data, and lends new perspectives to classic debates. The fourth edition includes fifty new or updated readings and a new streamlined organization that allows the evolution of stratification scholarship to unfold in a systematic fashion. The new readings cover the latest research on economic inequality, including the social construction of racial categories, the new immigrant economy, new forms of segregation and neighborhood inequality, the uneven and stalled gender revolution, the role of new educational forms and institutions in generating both equality and inequality, and the extent of anti-gay discrimination in the labor market.
The result is a comprehensive, interdisciplinary, and methodologically diverse text appropriate for sophisticated undergraduate and graduate courses on poverty, inequality, social stratification, social problems, the labor market, social class, social mobility, and race and ethnicity. David B. Grusky is professor of sociology at Stanford University, director of the Stanford Center on Poverty and Inequality, founder and coeditor of "Pathways Magazine," and coeditor of the Stanford University Press Social Inequality Series. His recent books include "Occupy the Future," "The Great Recession," "The Inequality Reader "(Westview Press), and "Mobility and Inequality.""
