"Lois Weis captures the complexities and contradictions of life in white working-class families at the turn of the 21st centuryIn a richly theorized but highly readable text, she illuminates how raced, classed, and gendered identities are shaped by changes in the U.S. political economy. An important book!" -- Jean Anyon, author of Ghetto Schooling: A Political Economy of Urban SchoolReform
"Class Reunion vividly illustrates how class is lived and identity is shaped within a context of globalization and neoliberalism. Lois Weis offers significant insights into the importance of class at a time when so much work is diminishing its relevance to contemporary understandings of the present social and political conjuncture." -- Valerie Walkerdine, author of Growing Up Girl:Psychosocial Explorations of Gender and Class
