English | ISBN: 080475697X | 2008 | 360 pages | EPUB | 5 MB
Why do racial and ethnic groups discriminate against each other? The most common sociological answer is that they want to monopolize scarce resources―good jobs or top educations―for themselves. This book offers a different answer, showing that racial and ethnic discrimination can also occur to preserve particular group identities.

Hannah Jones, "Negotiating Cohesion, Inequality and Change: Uncomfortable Positions in Local Government"
English | ISBN: 1447310047 | 2015 | 248 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
How are multiculturalism, inequality and belonging understood in the day-to-day thinking and practices of local government? Examining original empirical data, this book explores how local government officers and politicians negotiate 'difficult subjects' linked with community cohesion policy: diversity, inequality, discrimination, extremism, migration, religion, class, power and change. The book argues that such work necessitates 'uncomfortable positions' when managing ethical, professional and political commitments. Based on first-hand experience of working in urban local government and extensive ethnographic, interview and documentary research, the book applies governmentality perspectives in a new way to consider how people working within government are subject to regimes of governmentality themselves, and demonstrates how power operates through emotions. Its exploration of how 'sociological imaginations' are applied beyond academia will be valuable to those arguing for the future of public services and building connections between the university and wider society, including scholars and students in sociology, social policy, social geography, urban studies and politics, and policy practitioners in local and central government.

Toshiaki Tachibanaki, "Confronting Income Inequality in Japan: A Comparative Analysis of Causes, Consequences, and Reform"
English | ISBN: 0262201585 | 2005 | 247 pages | PDF | 8 MB
Contrary to general belief, and to Japan's own self-image, inequality of income and wealth distribution in Japan has grown in the past two decades. In this well-written and accessible book, Toshiaki Tachibanaki analyzes the movement toward more income inequality in Japan and offers policy recommendations to counter the trend. Tachibanaki, Japan's leading expert on income distribution, draws on new statistical data covering wealth, inheritance, farm and business holdings, salary, and other relevant factors, to demonstrate that Japan can no longer be thought of as a "90 percent middle-class society."

Rural Poverty, Growth, and Inequality in China by Yangyang Shen
English | EPUB | 2022 | 292 Pages | ISBN : 9811696535 | 5.9 MB
This book aims to empirically and theoretically study how the economic growth and inequality affected China's rural poverty since China's reform and opening-up. Apart from the trickle-down effect, some empirical researches show that rising inequality usually links with unfairly shared of the economic growth, which is not good for the poor, and this book particularly concerns with the impact of inequality on poverty reduction. In 11 chapters, it leads readers to review the dynamic changes of rural poverty in China, and estimates rural poverty by various methods, for instance, with analysis by monetary poverty (including income and expenditure poverty), multidimensional poverty, absolute poverty, and relative poverty.
