Summary
The dissertation describes the classic class schemes and milieu approaches with a focus on John Goldthorpe and the Sinus-Milieus. These two approaches are also compared in terms of their explanatory power. Although it is shown that the milieu approaches are better able to explain socio-political attitudes and voting behavior, overall both approaches are more suitable for describing social structures. Unfortunately, this is an unedited new edition from the year 2000, so that no newer approaches or revisions of the approaches mentioned or newer research results are taken into account.
