Our global urban civilization is incapable of recycling or replacing the fossil energy it uses and which is heating up the planet; so far, it has also been unable to change the patterns of consumption which are destroying its own habitat.

These sociologists were obsessed by questions about the province and proper subject-matter of sociology; about the relation of sociology to the other social sciences; and about the essential principle of human society which distinguished it from animal life. Their writings, especially those of Ward, were voluminous, and packed with complex but not very arresting formulations designed to answer these questions. Whatever good ideas they had were hidden beneath a cloak of obscure expressions and concepts. It is hard to find passages in their books which communicate any sense of the America in which they lived.

This paper attempts to bridge this gap by drawing out some of the implications of Marx's ownership of the means of production and Dahrendorf s authority for both income inequality and politics, by evaluating these implications empirically and by showing how these conceptions of class can be incorporated into the dominant Blau-Duncan model of status attainment. Using survey data from large national samples in the United States and Great Britain, we show that both Marx's and Dahrendorfs class models have important implications for men's income, increasing by almost half the variance explained by the conventional Blau-Duncan model. The income of American women, in contrast, is little influenced by class and this explains a substantial part of the male-female income gap. Description: In this paper we suggest that the conventional paradigm be extended to include two additional dimensions of stratification, each the focus of a major theoretical tradition-Karl Marx's ownership of the means of production and Ralf Dahrendorf s exercise of authority in the workplace. Although Marx's and Dahrendorf s class theories have been subject to much theoretical analysis,' there has been little attempt to assess their empirical adequacy.
