Description

While the national myth suggests all Americans belong to the middle class, the term itself is often poorly defined. The Middling Sorts: Explorations in the History of the American Middle Class offers a deep look into the reality of social class in the United States. Through a collection of compelling essays, this book provides necessary context for understanding how class actually functioned throughout history. Instead of using rigid categories or fixed dichotomies, these writings focus on the reality of change and multiplicity. The text explores how the middle sorts navigated complex social landscapes, balancing elements like democracy and ambition, morality and consumption, and entrepreneurial values with corporate ideals. This book is an essential resource for anyone looking to move beyond simple definitions and understand the true history of the American middle class.
