Stanislaw Ossowski argues that the concept of class is not merely an objective economic reality but a complex social phenomenon shaped by subjective awareness, ideology, and cultural interpretation. Drawing on a wide range of historical and cross-cultural examples, the work illustrates the tension between various conceptions of social stratification — from Marxist frameworks to non-egalitarian schemes — and how these schemas influence social behaviour and political thought. Translated from the Polish by Sheila Patterson and situated within the prestigious International Library of Sociology and Social Reconstruction, this volume stands as an enduring and authoritative contribution to the sociology of class and inequality.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888033345755,"sku":"2026100006783-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/f2b39200-a70f-45c4-859b-01457b7c209b.png?v=1781753521","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006783-secondhand-class-structure-in-the-social-consciousness","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
