About this title

Synopsis

Identities and Inequalities emphasizes four key social identifiers--race (and ethnicity), class, gender, and sexuality--from the perspective of individuals embedded in particular cultural, institutional, and historical contexts. The text emphasizes an integrated approach to analyzing how the four key social identifiers work together or in opposition to form peoples' social identities and experiences with inequality. This fourth edition has been updated to include the most current statistics, as well as updated examples and fresh intersections features.
