New Directions in Elite Studies attempts to move the social scientific study of elites beyond economic analysis, which has greatly improved our knowledge of inequality, but is restricted to income and wealth. In contrast, this book mobilizes a broad scope of research methods to uncover the social composition of the power elite the field of power. It reconstructs processes through which people gain access to positions in this particular social space, examines the various forms of capital they mobilize in the process economic, but also cultural and social capital and probes changes over time and variations across national contexts.
Since the financial crisis, the issue of the one percent has become the centre of intense public debate, unavoidable even for members of the elite themselves. Moreover, inquiring into elites has taken centre-stage once again in both journalistic investigations and academic research.
