Description
Social class in Britain today is more complex and relevant than ever. In this book, Mike Savage and his team of sociologists explore how and why our society is changing, looking beyond labels to understand the distribution of three kinds of capital: economic, social, and cultural. Their new conceptualization of class provides a fresh perspective on social mobility and inequality, shedding light on the ways in which our lives are shaped by the inequalities we experience. With incontrovertible evidence, they demonstrate that class remains a powerful force in shaping our society today. By examining the intersections of economic, social, and cultural capital, Savage and his team offer a nuanced understanding of the ways in which class affects us all.
