Elliot B. Weininger is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at SUNY-Brockport. After completing his dissertation at the CUNY Graduate Center, he worked as a post-doctoral research fellow with Annette Lareau at Temple University. That project resulted in a number of articles concerning the impact of social class on various dimensions of family life, and especially childrearing. With Lareau, he is beginning a multi-method study on the role of the role that schooling considerations play in parents’ decisions concerning residential location. Additionally, his chapter on Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of social class was recently published in the volume Approaches to Class Analysis (2005), edited by Erik Olin Wright. During 2007-2008, he is on leave at the Population Studies Center at the University of Pennsylvania.
