In this volume, sociologists David Harding, Michèle Lamont, and Mario Luis Small reject the earlier view that people would cease to be poor if they simply changed their culture. Instead, they point to new research that reconsiders the ways in which “meaning-making” factors into the production and reproduction of poverty.
