Resumen de Social class in the 21st century
This book review looks at 'Social class in the 21st century' by Mike Savage, which is primarily based upon a major investigation, involving 325,000 people, by the BBC into this topic. 'Social class' is a lucid analysis and reporting of the findings from the study, with evidence-based arguments throughout vested in the contexts of modern Britain and the origins of social classification methods. The author examines two groups in detail --the Elites at the top of today's social structure and the 'precarious Precariat' at the bottom -- and the extent individuals are conscious of the class structure. At the heart of this thought-provoking book is the subject of inequality and a call to action for all researchers to think more carefully about the methods we use to differentiate people in today's world.
