What do people in the United States and Europe think about the rich? There are several thousand books and articles on stereotypes and prejudices directed at women, people of various races or nationalities, and even the poor. In contrast, there has only been sporadic research into stereotypes about the rich, and no published comprehensive, scientific study on the topic—until now.

Det borgerlige Danmark er i krise. Selv om det fortsat ligner dødt løb i dansk politik mellem rød og blå blok, dækker meningsmålingerne over en dybereliggende idémæssig krise i den borgerlige lejr.

Blå blok har ikke formået at forny det borgerlige projekt i takt med de økonomiske, teknologiske og kulturelle ændringer, som globaliseringen har ført med sig. Det borgerlige projekt har i alt for høj grad handlet om at forsvare individet, men i dag er det fællesskabet og det kollektive, der er under pres. I denne postliberale virkelighed kæmper en splittet blå blok for at holde sig relevante.

JEG ANERKENDER IKKE LÆNGERE JERES AUTORITET er et indigneret, selvudleverende og ømt manifest om klasseskam, prol og elite, om provinsbøsser og repræsentationssmykker, moralisme og hykleri, om Tiger King og Anna og Lotte, om dem, der altid får taletid, og dem, der ikke føler sig berettiget til en stemme. Med vrede, misundelse og humor brænder Glenn Bech alle illusioner om lige muligheder ned og insisterer på at tale ud fra sine egne erfaringer i klassesamfundet.

The leading lights of the tech revolution – Gates, Bezos, Zuckerberg, Musk – have been hailed as savants and saviours of the modern age. And yet they are at the forefront of wealth inequality not seen since the heyday of the robber barons in the late 19th century, part of the slide to the First World War. Today, rampant inequality is inciting social unrest and undermining faith in the institutions of the democratic state. Citizens have been left at the mercy of unfettered capitalism – mere data subjects, endlessly surveilled, marshalled and increasingly angry and polarised.

The Education Myth questions the idea that education represents the best, if not the only, way for Americans to access economic opportunity. As Jon Shelton shows, linking education to economic well-being was not politically inevitable. In the 18th and 19th centuries, for instance, public education was championed as a way to help citizens learn how to participate in a democracy. By the 1930s, public education, along with union rights and social security, formed an important component of a broad-based fight for social democracy.

Metrofix: The Combative Comeback of a Company Town shows what went right and what went wrong when General Electric moved most of its businesses out of Schenectady, New York. Once known as “The City that Lights and Hauls the World” because of its electrical and railroad industries, the Electric City enjoyed decades of dizzying, enviable success. Like other river towns upstate, it was a 20th-century economic powerhouse that fueled the wealth and reputation of the Empire State.

"Ils subissent un éloignement géographique, social, politique et culturel. Ils sont la majorité. Ils sont à l'origine de toutes les contestations actuelles, qui ne ressemblent à aucun des mouvements sociaux des siècles passés. Ils sont les dépossédés." Dans ce nouvel essai, Christophe Guilluy montre comment les classes populaires répondent magistralement à leur disparition programmée, en imposant une alternative à un modèle condamné.
