How Wealth Inequalities are Made: An Interview with Céline Bessière and Sibylle Gollac
Wealth as a Feminist Issue
Why look at wealth now? How is wealth a feminist issue? This introduction to our special issue on Wealth sets out how and why wealth is a feminist issue in the context of twenty-first-century capitalism. In particular, it highlights how the transition from a wage-based society to an asset-based wealth society requires urgent feminist attention, especially to the gendered and racialised dimensions of existing and emerging wealth-based inequalities
Sociology’s archive
Taking up the call for sociologists to develop alternative approaches which enable futures to be taken seriously, this chapter examines the possibilities that recordings of the past offer for the development of such sensibilities.

Housework, Wages and Money: The Category of the Female Principal Breadwinner in Financial Capitalism
According to a range of authors and popular commentators, the post-Fordist socioeconomic order has produced a new category of female labourer, the 'female principal breadwinner'. This article opens out this category of worker to critical scrutiny. We suggest that while the very idea of the female principal breadwinner is open to all manner of existing lines of feminist critique, beyond this it forces a confrontation with a number of issues vital …
