Symbolic Interactionism on Stratification
Captions available
The idea
Interactionists study how class is displayed and read in everyday life through speech, dress, consumption, and manner, making position visible and enforceable.
In practice
An accent or a brand communicates position before anyone states an income.
Where people slip
These markers are learned in childhood and are difficult to acquire later.
