Abstract

"The Stacked Deck explores the nature and effects of inequality in Canada. It begins with an overview of the history of inequality and frameworks commonly used to study social inequality and the characteristics of vulnerable populations before moving on to take a closer look at significant barriers to key resources, including employment income, child care, education, housing, food, health care. The second edition includes greater coverage on the history and theory of inequality, beginning each resource-focused chapter by presenting a range of theoretical perspectives on the function of these resources in society, before providing a detailed co of the real-world Canadian reality. Thoroughly updated to include 2016 census data and other current information, The Stacked Deck, 2e gives students the tools they need to think critically about one of the most pressing social issues facing Canada today."--
