Meritocracy Myth
The Meritocracy Myth challenges the widely held American belief in meritocracy—that people get out of the system what they put into it based on individual merit. The book examines talent, attitude, work ethic, and character as elements of merit and evaluates the effect of nonmerit factors such as family background, social connections, luck, market conditions, unequal educational opportunities, and discrimination. The fourth edition has been revis…
Illusions of Prosperity
Faith in - idea that, for instance, profit-seeking managed care companies will improve health care delivery system - has become a basic tenet of public policy debate. But as Joel Blau demonstrates in this eye-opening book, so-called free market programmes have been a dismal failure, heightening inequality, lowering median standard of living, and steadily eroding quality of our social and political life. In Illusions of Prosperity, Blau launches a…
Stratification in Science
Publication patterns in the leading journals of chemistry, economics, philosophy, and sociology between 1960 and 1985 are examined Patterns of institutional stratification are indicated by the dispersion of institutional affiliations among authors, peripheral status of authors, and the extent of the bureaucratization of knowledge produced within the respective disciplines. The data show that patterns of institutional stratification vary across in…
Occupation and Class Consciousness in America
Social Networks of Science and Patterns of Publication in Leading Sociology Journals, 1960 to 1985
This article examines the impact of editor-author networks of institutional ties on publication patterns in three leading sociology journals between 1960 and 1985. The "invisible college," a social network of elite scholars, is discussed as the major contributor to the editor-author connection. Results suggest a pattern of institutional connections between editors and authors over time beyond random chance alone. It appears, however, that fluctua…

Estate Inheritance
Estate inheritance, a frequently mentioned but rarely examined feature of stratification systems, has been a neglected area of research in sociology. In this paper, several possible causes of the sociological neglect are discussed. The treatment of inheritance patterns in functionalist and conflict theories of stratification is analyzed, and an overview of existing research on inheritance is presented. Finally, a conflict theory of stratification…

Du Pont-State Relations
This paper examines the historical relations between the Du Pont Company and the U.S. federal government. Relations between the Du Pont Company and various segments of the state apparatus were varied and complex. I indicate how these historically contingent relations were affected by the strategies of capital accumulation adopted by the firm, the immediate organizational interests of the State, and the nature of class conflict in the society as a…
The Class Structure of Job Rewards
This research used canonical correlation to analyze how 20 occupational rewards are linked to the principal class divisions in the United States. Authority, ownership, mental labor, white-collar work, and embourgeoisement divisions are tested with the continuous status socioeconomic index (SEI). A wide variety of job rewards are investigated as possible consequences of class divisions: earnings, fringe benefits, promotions, security, challenging …
The Perception of Class
This research examines the extent to which the social relations of production are perceived as important components of class position. Following Poulantzas, we investigate economic (ownership-self-employment) political (work authority), and ideological (the mental-manual division) relations of production. The effects of these three dimensions on class perceptions are examined by an analysis of the determinants of class self-placements. Using two …
