This textbook provides students with a lively and penetrating
exploration of the concept of class and its relevance for
understanding a wide range of issues in contemporary society. Erik
Olin Wright treats class as a common explanatory factor and
examines three broad themes: class structure, class and gender, and
class consciousness. Specific empirical studies include such
diverse topics as class variations in the gender division of labour
in housework; friendship networks across class boundaries; the
American class structure since 1960; and cross-national variations
in class consciousness. The author evaluates these studies in the
light of expectations within the Marxist tradition of class
analysis. This Student Edition of Class Counts thus combines
Wright's sophisticated account of central and enduring questions in
social theory with practical analyses of detailed social problems.
