Where Does Inequality Come From? The Personal And Intellectual Roots Of Resource-Based Theory

Abstract

Abstract It has been said that all writing is autobiographical. If true, then one’s research because it is such an intense and focused form of writing must be a particularly intimate form of autobiography. In this sense, all scholarship is self-revelatory. It is as if there is embedded, within the body of one’s published work, a hidden Rorschach test that reveals more than even the author sometimes knows.
