While most research on inequality focuses on impoverished
communities, it often ignores how powerful communities and elites
monopolize resources at the top of the social hierarchy. In
Privilege at Play, Hugo Ceron-Anaya offers an intersectional
analysis of Mexican elites to examine the ways affluent groups
perpetuate dynamics of domination and subordination. Using
ethnographic research conducted inside three exclusive golf clubs
and in-depth interviews with upper-middle and upper-class golfers,
as well as working-class employees, Ceron-Anaya focuses on the
class, racial, and gender dynamics that underpin privilege in
contemporary Mexico. His detailed analysis of social life and the
organization of physical space further considers how the legacy of
imperialism continues to determine practices of exclusion and how
social hierarchies are subtlety reproduced through distinctions
such as fashion and humor, in addition to the traditional
indicators of wealth and class. Adding another dimension to the
complex nature of social exclusion, Privilege at Play shows how
elite social relations and spaces allow for the resource hoarding
and monopolization that helps create and maintain poverty.
