内容説明

In the global world of the twenty-first century, class boundaries are subtle and permeable, though real nonetheless. Markers of identity, authenticity, and belonging can change with a gesture or a glance, making people feel they do or don't belong in certain places, with certain people, at certain times. In these powerfully written ethnographic stories, Rhoda Halperin maps the boundaries of class by examining three themes: crossing class boundaries, class creativity, and class vulnerability. In telling these stories, Halperin draws on a wealth of ethnographic experiences in this country and abroad. Her book challenges class stereotypes in ways that touch on universals across cultures and over time. Rhoda H. Halperin is Professor of Anthropology at the University of Cincinnati. Her previous books include "Practicing Community: Class Culture and Power in an Urban Neighborhood", "Cultural Economies Past and Present", and "The Livelihood".
