Description
This is Volume II of twenty-one in a collection of Race, Class and Social Structure. Originally published in 1960, this book is about the place of class and its synonyms, status, prestige, and power, in the structure of American society. A dominant theme of the book is that classes do exist even though individuals are not chained to these social positions with unequivocal finality.

Titles in this highly international set consider every problem of socio-political importance that affected society in the years following the Second World War. This set includes important texts by key social and political theorists including Stanislaw Ossowski, as well as extensive comparative material from China, Palestine, the USA, South Africa and Great Britain. Drawing on important empirical material, titles included here consider in-depth questions of ethnicity, unemployment, immigration, colour prejudice, social mobility, new elites and class formation.
