Challenging the System: Social Movements in a Global Age. 520 $a "Social Inequality in a Global Age provides a sociological framework for analyzing inequality within the United States in the context of global stratification and a rapidly changing world economy. With insightful analysis, and using examples drawn straight from today's headlines, Scott Sernau explores the multiple dimensions of inequality--class privilege, race and ethnicity, gender and sexuality, status and power--and how they intersect with each other. As it explores each dimension of inequality, the text analyzes the relationship between changing global power structures and growing inequalities within societies. Throughout, a focus on social action and community engagement encourages students to become involved, active learners in the classroom and engaged citizens in their communities" -- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Social stratification. 650 0 $a Equality. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240717023639.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=200849B8DABF11EEBE8532184BECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
