Worlds Apart: Social Inequalities in a Global Economy

The Second Edition of Worlds Apart: Social Inequalities in a Global Economy focuses primarily on social inequalities in the American context. It is the only undergraduate text that provides a sociological framework for analyzing inequality within U.S. society as well as analyzing the relationship between global stratification systems and internal systems of inequality. Author Scott Sernau places each issue and dimension of inequality in the context of a changing global economy.
