Bücher von Stephen Edgell

Now in a fully updated third edition, The Sociology of Work draws on the work of classic and contemporary theorists, to provide readers with a thorough exploration of all aspects of work and employment, including paid and unpaid work, standard and non-standard employment, and even unemployment.

This introductory text argues that class remains a key concept in sociology. Edgell examines the work of Marx, Weber, Wright and Goldthorpe - and discusses class structures, social mobility, inequality and politics.
