Diferenciranje društvenih grupa prema glavnim vrsta
ma podele rada odvija se u sprezi s diferenciranjem njihovih
položaja u strukturi odnosa političke, statusne, »pasivne-« i
ekonomske moći. Kako su izvori glavnih oblika društvene
moći relativno autonomni i između političke, profesionalne
i ekonomske dimenzije socijalne stratifikacije nema potpune
podudarnosti. Usled toga nema ni asimetričnog proizvođe
nja životnih prilika (šansi) po jedinstvenoj frontalnoj osi
socijalne strukture, koje bi vodilo klasnoj polarizaciji. Duž
glavnih linija podele rada, oblikuju se četiri osnovna društ
vena sloja — politička elita, srednji sloj, radništvo i se
ljaštvo — koji su i sami horizontalno fragmentirani i verti
kalno diferencirani. Sociološki profil ovih heterogenih druš
tvenih oblika više upućuje na postojanje elitističkog, nego
klasnog obrasca socijalne strukture.
This website began hosting a series of Briefing Papers from early in 2014. The papers are focussed on assessing the state of the country as the basis for public discussion and debate. A group of writers has been assembled to write short briefing papers based on extensive research programmes and presented in a form that can be easily understood by the public at large.
The Briefing papers are aimed at providing the public with an overview of critical issues facing New Zealand society in the 21st century. The goal is to promote informed discussion and debate, so crucial to economic and social development, with the central question being: how is the public interest being served?
