This is the webpage for Dave Griffiths, a Researcher within the Department of Applied Social Science at the Universtiy of Stirling.
My principal research interest is in social advanatage. My PhD thesis examined board membership of UK quangos, situating the study within elite theory. A series of journal articles have been created from that study. I've examined the role social surveys can perform in studying elites through comparative research on corporate directors in the UK and Sweden. I have recently commenced an ESRC funded project entitled 'Social Networks and Occupational Structure' which will produce new measures of occupational inequality, whilst examining the patterns of interaction which shape those structures.
