Críticas
"With this book Aronowitz puts the subject of social class squarely on the intellectual agenda - -though in a new, inclusive, and dynamic form. Like his influential False Promises, How Class Works is both intellectually exciting and morally challenging." Barbara Ehrenreich "In How Class Works, Aronowitz argues for the enduring vitality of the concept of social class as a way of understanding social relations. This is a significant contribution to social theory, an argument certain to be widely considered, debated, and tested." George Lipsitz, author of American Studies in a Moment of Danger
Reseña del editor
Americans like to believe that they live in a classless society. Most Americans defiantly identify themselves as middle class, although economic inequality is greater in the United States than in most advanced Western nations. This text presents a reconceptualisation of the meaning and significance of class in modern America. Offering a revision of conventional wisdom, Stanley Aronowitz demonstrates that class remains a potent force in the United States. Aronowitz shows that class need not be understood simply in terms of socioeconomic stratification, but rather as the power of social groups to make a difference. He explains that social groups from different economic and political positions become ruling classes when they make demands that change the course of history. For instance, labour movements, environmental activists and feminists have engaged in class struggles as their demands for power reconfigured the social order. The emerging global justice movements - comprised of activists from heterogeneous social and political backgrounds - also show potential for class formation.
