In this book, Richard Scase offers a clear and accessible introduction to the analysis of social class. He examines the role of social class in shaping relationships and social structures, especially in Western capitalist societies. Through the lens of class and its relation to exploitation, Scase highlights the persistence of class divisions even in the wake of the failure of Soviet and Eastern European state socialism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book also explores the limitations of Marxist theory, especially Marx’s vision of abolishing class, which, by the end of the twentieth century, is seen as utopian. Scase uses his analysis to argue that, while Marxist categories remain valuable tools, the reality of class division continues to define the social fabric of capitalist societies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eContents\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Relevance of Class\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass and Stratification: Patterns of Rewards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass and Stratification: Patterns of Opportunity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass and Stratification: Some Collective Responses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConclusions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Scase\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Professor of Sociology at the University of Kent at Canterbury.
