Inequality and Sociology

Lane Kenworthy

University of Arizona, Tucson

Sociologists have contributed relatively little to our understanding of rising inequality of earnings and income in the United States. The author considers both why that has been the case and the degree to which it matters. Suggestions are offered about how a comparative perspective can help to shed some light on developments in the United States.

Key Words: income inequality • social class • stratification • pretax-pretransfer income
