Sociologists David Harding, Michèle Lamont, Mario Small (special editors), and William Julius Wilson (contributor) reject, in their volume of The Annals, “Reconsidering Culture and Poverty,” the earlier view that people would cease to be poor if they simply changed their culture. Instead, they point to new research that reconsiders the ways in which “meaning-making” factors into the production and reproduction of poverty.
