Towards a cultural sociology of transnational and global inequalities

International workshop
8-9 May 2025
Funding: DFG and University of Bamberg (FNK)
 

Social inequality is a core topic of sociology, but most analyses focus on social inequalities within countries. The aim of this workshop was to bring together international sociologists from diverse theoretical and methodological backgrounds to contribute to the development of a research agenda on studying transnational and global inequalities. In particular, it sought to advance this agenda by leveraging recent conceptual innovations from cultural sociology, which have emphasized the importance of cultural practices such as classifications, evaluations, and symbolic boundaries for social inequality.
