Social reproduction is not an iron law; it admits of exceptions that must be accounted for in order to measure its scope. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book aims to understand the passage from one social class to another and to forge a method of approaching these particular cases which remain a blind spot in the theory of social reproduction. It analyzes the political, economic, social, familial and singular causes that contribute to non-reproduction, and their effects on the constitution of individuals transiting from one class to another. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt the crossroads of collective history and intimate history, Chantal Jaquet identifies class locations, the interplay of affects and encounters, and the role of sexual and racial differences. She invites us to break out of disciplinary isolation in order to grasp singularity at the crossroads of philosophy, sociology, psychology and literature. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis requires deconstruction of the concepts of social and personal identity, in favour of a concepts like complexion and the criss-crossing determinations. Through the figure of the transclass, it is thus the whole human condition that is illuminated in a new light.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChantal Jaquet \u003c\/b\u003eis a philosopher and professor at the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.
