This new edition provides a sociological framework for analyzing inequality within United States society as well as analyzing the relationship between global stratification systems and internal systems of inequality. The intersection of race, class and gender is not just stated but illustrated throughout the book as a pervasive institutionalized system of privilege and oppression. Written in a clear style, the author engages undergraduates in the subject matter and also interprets these lived experiences by introducing classical and contemporary theories of stratification.
