{"product_id":"relational-inequalities","title":"Relational Inequalities","description":"Organizations are the dominant social invention for generating resources and distributing them. Relational Inequalities develops a general sociological and organizational analysis of inequality, exploring the processes that generate inequalities in access to respect, resources, and rewards. Framing their analysis through a relational account of social and economic life, Donald Tomaskovic-Devey and Dustin Avent-Holt explain how resources are generated and distributed both within and between organizations. They show that inequalities are produced through generic processes that occur in all social relationships: categorization and their resulting status hierarchies, organizational resource pooling, exploitation, social closure, and claims-making. Drawing on a wide range of case studies, Tomaskovic-Devey and Avent-Holt focus on the workplace as the primary organization for generating inequality and provide a series of global goals to advance both a comparative organizational research model and to challenge troubling inequalities.","brand":"Oxford University Press Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54229537096024,"sku":"9780190624439","price":32.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780190624439_a384a0ab-6ef4-4793-9b9d-f38f436982cb.jpg?v=1753466441","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/relational-inequalities","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
