La question des inégalités (de classe, de statut économique, de genre, ethno raciales...), définies comme une différence d'accès à des biens sociaux jugée injustifiée, est au cœur de la sociologie.Ce manuel a pour ambition de proposer le bilan le plus complet possible des travaux et connaissances sociologiques sur le sujet, et d'ouvrir des pistes de réflexion sur le domaine : quelle est la genèse de la notion d'inégalité ? Pourquoi les inégalités se transmettent-elles et se reproduisent-elles ? Quels sont les rôles respectifs de la famille, du système éducatif, des pouvoirs publics ? Comment et dans quelle mesure l'État parvient-il à corriger les inégalités de départ entre les groupes sociaux ?L'ouvrage est illustré par de nombreux exemples internationaux et des figures originales.Des compléments sont disponibles dans la rubrique "ressources numériques". Ils permettent d'approfondir certains concepts présentés dans l'ouvrage et proposent plus de 500 références en grande partie internationales.

“A fresh study that confirms the existence of multiple peripheries (and its others) in Turkish society and how dominant centrist media represented these differences in film and television discourse. The use of Mardin’s center-periphery concept for the analyses of films, ads and cartoons is brilliant. This is a timely project as scholarly interest in Turkey has increased exponentially since 2013. This project is key to understanding the roots of a media politics in contemporary Turkey.” —Murat Akser, Ulster University, UK “Alparslan Nas' seminal work disrupts the notion of Turkish identities as fixed and stable. He challenges the center (secular, modern, Western)/ peripheral (conservative, religious) binary by critically examining how a cultural “other” is constructed and performed through the media in Turkey. Nas’ analysis offers a (much needed) new lens and approach to understanding Turkey’s complex social and political landscape.” —Kathleen Cavanaugh, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland This book is an important contribution to the scholarship on Turkey’s cultural and political dynamics, facilitating a discussion on the recent depictions of the cultural other in the media. Turkey’s modern history has been characterized by a particular tension between the social classes occupying the “center” of society: while the bureaucratic elite are represented as modern, secular and westernized, the “peripheral” communities are portrayed as conservative, religious or non-Turkish. This book facilitates a timely intervention to problematize this possible perception and to point at the complex dynamics of center-periphery relations through the representation of the cultural other in film, television, advertisements and cartoons, which have all been produced by different social classes. Ultimately, Media Representations of the Cultural Other in Turkey argues that the notions of the center and periphery do not signify stable positions; rather, each social agent imagines themselves at the center, the cultural other at their periphery providing a crucial tool for the realization of their own identity. .
