Jay MacLeod's classic ethnography — a defining work on the cycle of social reproduction — now includes a third section that continues the lives of the original 'Brothers and Hallway Hangers' through new interviews and analysisThis classic text addresses one of the most important issues in modern social theory and policy: how social inequality is reproduced from one generation to the next. With the original 1987 publication of 'Aint No Makin It', Jay MacLeod brought us to the Clarendon Heights housing project where we met the 'Brothers' and the 'Hallway Hangers'. Their story of poverty, race, and defeatism moved readers and challenged ethnic stereotypes. MacLeod's return eight years later, and the resulting 1995 revision, revealed little improvement in the lives of these men as they struggled in the labour market and crime-ridden underground economy. The third edition of this classic ethnography of social reproduction brings the story of inequality and social mobility into today's dialogue. Now fully updated with thirteen new interviews from the original 'Hallway Hangers and Brothers', as well as new theoretical analysis and comparison to the original conclusions, 'Aint No Makin It' remains an admired and invaluable text.
