  title = {Status, Symbols, and Politics: A Theory of Symbolic Status Politics},
  abstract = {<p>Studies of politics are increasingly attempting to account for status. However, status remains undertheorized<br>in much of that research. This article sketches a theory of status in politics, distinguishing status from prejudice,<br>identity, cultural difference, and concrete threats to interests. It shows how status accounts for some of<br>the apparent effects of these variables or for patterns they cannot explain. I focus on the symbolic facets of<br>status, connecting theories of symbolic politics with theories of status.</p>},
