Sommario/riassunto

This book makes a significant contribution towards understanding the new class structures of post-industrial societies and the changing processes of social stratification and mobility.    Drawing together comparative research on the dynamics of social stratification in a number of key western societies, the authors develop a framework for the analysis of post-industrial class formation. They illustrate the significance of the relations between the welfare state and the



household, and the critical interface between gender and class.
