Relational Inequalities argues that inequalities in resources, rewards, and respect are relational, produced within and between workplaces. Generic inequality processes are identified and multiple qualitative, quantitative, and historical case studies developed to demonstrate organizational variation in the types and levels of inequalities, as well as the institutional contexts shaping this variation.
