Book review: Fractured identities: changing patterns of inequality by Harriet Bradley (2nd Edition)

With inequality one of the pressing concerns of the contemporary moment, a new edition of Fractured Identities: Changing Patterns of Inequality seeks to contextualise its analyses amidst processes of globalisation, the aftermath of the financial crisis and the widespread implementation of austerity policies. Harriet Bradley uses an intersectional framework to examine inequalities relating to class, gender, ethnicity and age, and also presents a new chapter attending to disability, sexuality and religion. This text continues to inspire and educate and remains a valuable undergraduate social science resource, writes Andreea Ciurea.
