ABSTRACT
The integration of intersectional theory, cultural sociology and social constructivism provides a solid foundation that allows avoiding class reductionism in studying social inequalities. It stresses the necessity of avoiding the kind of one-dimensional analysis of inequality genesis that has been one of the major constraints in the sociology of social inequality for decades. The category of transnationality, operationalized via social references to state borders–spanning, networked and multilocal entanglements, must be approached as a specific element of spatialization. The multidimensional sociocultural boundaries are, thus, produced and reproduced by everyday social practices of organizations, institutions and face-to-face interactions. The sociology of social inequality benefits from such a multidimensional perspective on inequality analysis that addresses space as a particular dimension of social inequality. With regard to domain-specific assemblages, it allows us to analyse how specific rules of the game of domain-specific settings interplay with intersectional inequality dimensions.
