{"product_id":"does-class-matter-social-stratification-ern-ser-tan-9789812388292","title":"Does Class Matter? Social Stratification and Orientations in Singapore","description":"This book provides a comprehensive portrait of class structure, dynamics, and orientations in Singapore -- understood as a new nation, a capitalist and emerging knowledge economy, a largely middle-class society, and a polity with a strong state -- at the turn of the new millennium. It introduces a wide array of recent data on a broad range of topics relating to social stratification in Singapore: class structure, political participation, political alienation, national pride, welfarism, success values, unionism, social mobility, the digital divide, and the sandwich generation. To capture the lived experiences of people from different social classes, thereby complementing the numerous tables presented, the book also profiles six case studies of individuals or families, highlighting the challenges they face and the options they possess.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ern Ser Tan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 981238829X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789812388292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/26\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.12h x 5.92w x 0.30d","brand":"Ern Ser Tan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440443142399,"sku":"9789812388292","price":53.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_28e3aea6-f17b-44cc-8fef-278edbfa29d4.jpg?v=1777182467","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/does-class-matter-social-stratification-ern-ser-tan-9789812388292","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
