本文旨在确定挪威的“上层阶级”的内部分工，定义为包括不同类型的业主，高层管理人员和企业经理。布迪厄的社会空间和资本形式的概念被用来构建一个社会空间的挪威经济上层阶级的12个指标的资本进行多重对应分析。精英和上层阶级社会学的中心问题得到解决，包括教育证书在上层阶级再生产中的作用，以及社会出身划分的突出性。这篇文章揭示了在“金融化”时代，所有者和员工（经理、高管、商业专业人士）之间保持着一种分裂。此外，所建立的部门与按职业和行业划分的上层阶级有关。
This article seeks to identify the internal divisions within the 'upper class' of Norway, defined as comprising different types of property owners, top executives and business managers. Bourdieu's concepts of social space and forms of capital are applied to construct a social space of the Norwegian economic upper class by subjecting 12 indicators of capital to Multiple Correspondence Analysis. Central issues in the sociology of elites and upper classes are addressed, including the role of educational credentials in upper class reproduction, and the salience of divisions by social origin. The article reveals a maintained division between owners and employees (managers, executives, business professionals) in an age of 'financialisation'. Furthermore, the divisions established are related to the segmentation of the upper class by occupation and industry.
