Seller's Description:
Very Good. No Jacket. This is a study of the nature of inequality in human society, based on a comparative analysis of occupational prestige heirarchies in over 60 nations; the author argues that stratification is inevitable in complex societies because they are characterized by a highly developed division of labor into distinct occupational roles, and occupational role differentiation inherently gives rise to inequalities in power, privilege, and prestige; moreover, all complex societies have fundamentally similar occupational status hierarchies because occupational differences in power, and hence in privilege and prestige, are rooted in the division of labor (dark brown cover with gold lettering, highlighting on three pages of a table of occupational titles in Appendix D, otherwise unmarked; cover and remainder of text in near fine condition)
