Publisher Description: Are there classes in America? In The Classless Society Paul Kingston forcefully answers no. Challenging a long-standing intellectual tradition of class analysis recently revitalized by Erik Olin Wright and John Goldthorpe, and insisting on a realist conception of class, Kingston argues that presumed "classes" do not significantly share distinct, life-defining experiences. |
