Abstract

In this small volume on classism, Francis Seeck once again shows how German society is structured by the category of class and provides new insights that reveal devaluation mechanisms and promote the empowerment of those affected. In doing so, Seeck tries to take multiple discrimination seriously – an approach that seems interesting for gender studies, but is difficult.
