Toward an Integrated Theory of Social Stratification

In the discipline of sociology, Marx, Durkheim, and Weber represent "classical" approaches to the study of stratification, from one or another of which most modern theory derives. In economics, Veblen's Theory of the Leisure Class represents an under-utilized alternative to Marxian class analysis.The argument advanced in this article is that a close reading of the introductory chapter to Veblen's Theory of the Leisure Class provides a useful framework for productive integration of the diverse traditions of stratification theory and class analysis descending in sociological thought from Marx, Durkheim, and Weber
