Memories of Class (Routledge Revivals)

The analysis delves into the mechanisms of class formation and the institutionalization of class conflict, suggesting that outdated concepts of class have obstructed our understanding of social and political changes. Professor Bauman explores how historical memory influenced the evolution from rank to class society and addresses the current complexities surrounding the 'crisis of late-industrial society.' His work challenges conventional views and seeks to clarify the ongoing dynamics of class in contemporary contexts.
