The photo on the left was taken in 1911 at a canning factory in Port Royal, South Carolina. The two girls on the left are 6 years old; the one on the right is 10. They worked full time shucking oysters and did not go to school. The photo on the right was taken in the late 1800s. The children on the right, Cornelius and Gladys Vanderbilt, are shown in front of their parents’ estate. They went to school and did not work. You can see how the social locations illustrated in these photos would have produced different orientations to life and, therefore, politics, ideas about marriage, values, and so on—the stuff of which life is made.

15. What Determines Social Class? Max Weber: Property, Power, and Prestige

16. © 2015, 2013, 2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Max Weber: Property, Power, and Prestige Social class, Weber said, has three components: property, power, and prestige.

17. © 2015, 2013, 2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Property (or wealth): ownership is not the only significant aspect of property; some powerful people, such as managers of corporations, control the means of production even though they do not own them. Power, the second element of social class, is the ability to control others, even over their objections. Prestige, the third element in Weber’s analysis, is often derived from property and power, since people tend to admire the wealthy and powerful.
