It examines both class and status, and sets out an innovative framework for understanding social status – an important but often ignored and misunderstood dimension of social stratification. It is shown that a system of peerages, knighthoods, and other state-based royal honours emerged from feudal patterns of political rule and became an unplanned framework of social integration in the UK that has, since the nineteenth century, decayed and been challenged by alternative criteria of status. .The book explores the class basis of the rise and decay of royal honours and includes a review of contemporary attempts to reconstruct and renew a system of social honour that reflects contemporary relations of power and class in Britain.. .It will be of interest to scholars and students of class, social inequality and British social structure.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2024 | | 关键词 | social status; social stratification; power; class; honours system | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-45948-1 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-45950-4 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-45948-1 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
