Une autre manière de construire des milieux sociaux ? Pourquoi ? Comment ?

Abstract

Another Way for Constructing Social Milieus? Why and How?: A secondary analysis of the INSEE "Education and Family" survey led us to rethinking the construction of social milieus (and sub-milieus) based on the French PCS social-professional categories and professions of a child's six parents and grandparents in an attempt to better explain child/parents relations. The milieus are characterized by a particular homogeneity/heterogeneity (equivalence/non-equivalence of PCS's). The sub-milieus are the decomposition of different milieus according to social origins (using the PCS's).
