This book explores how structures of social inequality are linked to the social connections that people hold. The authors focus upon occupational inequalities where they see, for example, that the typical friendship patterns of people from one occupation are often very different to those of people from another.

Social Inequalities and Occupational Stratification leverages empirical data about differences in social connections to chart structures of social distance and social inequality. Several of its chapters provide coverage of the long-standing Cambridge Social Interaction and Stratification scale (CAMSIS) project and its approach to analysing social interaction patterns in terms of a single dimension related to social inequality. 



Paul Lambert is a Professor at the University of Stirling, UK. He has worked since 1999 as part of the CAMSIS project on occupations and social interactions. 

Dave Griffiths is a Lecturer in Quantitative Methods at the University of Stirling, UK, where he teaches on social networks, social inequalities, and on advanced social research methods.
