社会阶级是指一群人共享一个大致相似的市场或经济状况,阶级是社会学中用来解释不同生活机会的最基本概念之一。这一思想起源于马克思和韦伯的经典社会学(第三章对此进行了探讨),并继续与本书后面讨论的研究领域特别相关,如教育、工作和组织、犯罪和越轨行为以及健康。本章旨在解释阶级理论、衡量阶级不平等的主要策略以及围绕阶级在当代社会中的相关性的争论。它应使人们了解: 马克思和韦伯的阶级理论及其在现代社会学中的遗产 社会学家如何衡量阶级不平等以及对这些方法的批评 现代社会阶级进程的变化 围绕“下课”辩论的一些主要问题 当代社会不平等模式的变化
Social classes are groups of people sharing a broadly similar market, or economic, situation, Class is one of the most fundamental concepts used in sociology to explain differing life chances. The idea had its origins in the classical sociology of Marx and Weber, examined in Chapter 3, and continues to be particularly relevant to areas of research considered later in the book, such as education, work and organizations, crime and deviance and health. This chapter aims to explain theories of class, the major strategies for measuring class inequalities and the debates surrounding the relevance of class in contemporary societies. It should provide understanding of: Marxian and Weberian theories of class and their legacy in modern sociology How sociologists go about measuring class inequalities and criticisms of these methodologies Changes in the class processes of modern societies Some of the major issues surrounding the ‘end of class’ debate Changing patterns of inequality in contemporary societies
