This article discusses the main trajectories of class analysis that have been published by the Canadian Review of Sociology ( CRS) over its first five decades, including research on class structure, the capitalist class, and the working class. Since the 1960s, three major intellectual challenges-(1) feminist/antiracist, (2) poststructuralist, and (3) individualization-have reoriented and fragmented the subdiscipline of class analysis. The article concludes by assessing the extent to which each of these intellectual challenges has impacted the streams of class analysis published in the CRS, and offers three thoughts on future directions for class analysis in Canadian sociology.
