'In this important and innovative study, Erik Olin Wright presents a challenging theoretical and empirical cross-national analysis of class relations and class consciousness ... This study will be a key reference point in future discussion of competing approaches to class analysis and the place of class in contemporary societies.' Professor Bob Jessop, Lancaster University 'This book reports on the single most important sociological research project of the last decade ... It offers interesting empirical evidence, analyzed competently and making those data speak to the most abstract theoretical issues. It is a great way to introduce students in sociology and at the same time address vital contemporary issues. Scholars working on social stratification, mobility, inequalities, gender, race will take this work as their point of departure for the next decade.' Professor Ivan Szelenyi, University of California, Los Angeles 'In recent years it has become fashionable to question the usefulness of class analysis. Class Counts is Erik Wright's clear and convincing answer to the skeptics. Wright shows how class analysis makes sense of the inequalities that divide postindustrial society.' Professor Michael Hout, University of California, Berkeley
