Synopsis
The only undergraduate text that analyzes inequality within the United States in the context of our changing global economy
This Third Edition of Scott Sernau′s highly acclaimed text provides a sociological framework for analyzing inequality within the United States. Inequalities of race, class and gender can only be understood in the context of the changing global economy, and this is the first text to make that connection its focus. With vivid examples and analysis, this text brings domestic inequalities and the global context home to students. Using lively writing and examples straight from today′s headlines, the author places each issue and dimension of inequality in the context of a changing global economy. He also introduces both classical and contemporary theories of stratification to help interpret these real-world illustrations.
