Description
Upper, middle, or lower? Which class are you? Hierarchies and rankings have been with us since the earliest times and, as Seabrook argues, they show no sign of disappearing yet. Those at the top would have too much to lose.
This No-Nonsense Guide gives the full picture of how class analysis emerged from earlier categorizations, and how it affected and still affects people’s lives even today in our globalized world.
