Description
The concept of class has undergone significant scrutiny in recent years. As societies have transitioned from industrial to post-industrial models, traditional hierarchies and outlooks have been disrupted by new forms of management. This book offers a comprehensive survey of thought on class, drawing on the work of prominent thinkers such as Marx, Weber, and Foucault, alongside contemporary scholars like Bauman, Touraine, and Haraway. The authors explore how concepts of class have developed over time, examining the language used to describe social divisions and questioning whether class can provide an adequate explanation of both past and present realities. By bringing together a diverse range of perspectives, this book provides a nuanced understanding of class as a concept that continues to evolve in response to changing societal conditions.
