based on qualitative interviews with middle-class parents in America and Britain. It addresses the key issue in stratification research, namely, the stability of class relations and middle-class reproduction. Drawing on interviewee accounts of how parents mobilised economic, cultural and social resources to help them into professional careers, it then considers how the interviewees, as parents, seek to increase their children's chances of educational success and occupational advancement. Middle-class parents may try to secure their children's social position but it is not an easy or straightforward affair. With the decline of the quality of state education and increased job insecurity in the labour market since the 1970s and 1980s, the reproduction of advantage is more difficult than in the affluent decades of the 1950s and 1960s. The implications for public policy, especially public investment in higher education, are considered. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
'De Karthuizer' houden zich bezig met maatschappelijke, culturele en sociaal-pedagogische vraagstukken, vooral uit de sector zorg, welzijn en cultuur in Amsterdam en omstreken. Het kan daarbij om van alles gaan: van jeugdprojecten tot schuldsanering. Goed onderzoek hoort aan de basis van de aanpak van dit soort vraagstukken te liggen. In Nederland is men, wat de aanpak van maatschappelijke problemen betreft, niet zo onderzoekminded. Liever vindt men het wiel opnieuw uit. Een voorbeeld is het buurtproject waarbij vaders worden ingeschakeld om lastige jongeren in het gareel te krijgen. Veel grot |
