Special Section: <i>Formations of Class and Gender</i>, 25 (or so) years on

This article introduces the Special Section Revisiting Formations of Class and Gender (Skeggs 1997). It considers the legacy and continuing influence of this landmark work on scholarship around the world and across a wide range of disciplines, including media and cultural studies, human geography and social anthropology alongside sociology. Further, it celebrates the work of someone who has been instrumental to making The Sociological Review what it is today – from the pathbreaking scholarship that appears on the pages of the journal, to our work to create spaces for a ‘demonstrably alive’ sociology – demonstrating that Skeggs is one of those rare academics for whom the knowledge and understanding developed through her scholarship, translates into practice and action.
