Summary
"A Game of Privilege is a book about social inequalities and privilege in today's Mexico. Based on ethnographic research conducted in upscale golf clubs and in-depth interviews with upper-middle and upper-class golfers, as well as working-class employees, this book reverses the analysis of inequalities by focusing on privilege. Using rich qualitative data, the book examines how social hierarchies are relations produced through a multitude of everyday practices. A Game of Privilege not only analyses class but also explores how racial and gender dynamics reaffirm social hierarchies. This novel approach is combined with a space-sensitive perspective, showing how spatial dynamics underpin the reproduction of privilege"-- Provided by publisher
