Description:
According to our national myth, all Americans are "middle class", but rarely has such a widely-used term been so poorly defined, past and present. Do we identify the middle class by a house in the suburbs, a white collar job, or a political outlook that is right-of-center? Or is the middle class in fact much more complex?
Expand description
In an effort to bring greater clarity to our understanding of what it means to be middle class, the essays assembled in The Middling Sorts approach the subject both in its broader context and in significant depth over time. Whether they focus on the antebellum middle class, male corporate culture, or the subtle political resistance of Cold War housewives, the contributors -- who are among the most distinguished and promising social and cultural historians of the United States at work today -- provide much-needed context to the subject of social class in America.
