阶级被认为具有相当大的道德意义，关系到人们在资源和机会方面获得了什么，他们做出了什么贡献，取得了什么成就，他们成为了谁，他们如何评价自己和他人，以及他们如何对待他人。我开始通过勾勒我们可以如何概念化道德和阶级各自在自己的权利，反对占主导地位的主观主义和习俗主义的道德在社会学的治疗，并建议一个多维的，主要是布迪厄的阶级观。然后，我提出三个问题：（一）阶级本身作为社会道德关注的对象，特别是作为一种不公正的形式;（ii）阶级与道德之间的一般关系，就两者之间的和谐或不和谐而言，以及道德是否合法化或挑战阶级，以及（iii）阶级影响道德观念，情感和判断的方式，以及受其影响的方式，无论是关于自我和他人，实践和生活方式。最后，我呼吁进一步的研究，超越社会学和规范或评价的阶级和道德的治疗之间的鸿沟。
Class is argued to be of considerable moral significance, in relation to what people get in terms of resources and opportunities, what they contribute and achieve, who they become, how they value themselves and others, and how they behave towards others. I begin by sketching how we might conceptualise morality and class each in their own right, arguing against the dominant subjectivist and conventionalist treatment of morality in sociology, and recommending a multidimensional, largely Bourdieusian view of class. Then, I address three issues: (i) class itself as an object of moral concern in society, particularly as a form of injustice; (ii) the general relation between class and morality, in terms of the harmony or dissonance between the two, and whether morality legitimises or challenges class, and (iii) the ways in which class affects, and is affected by, moral ideas, feelings and judgements, whether about self and other, practices and ways of living. I conclude by calling for further research which transcends the divide between sociological and normative or evaluative treatments of class and morality.
