Overview
The essays in this volume expound a new theoretical perspective on the formation and function of the middle class. Drawing on currents within Marxism, particularly Marxist structuralism, the essays first re-examine the basic tenets of class structure theory, then develop their own approach and methodology. This approach is then applied to the study of the North American intermediate class. Why is it sometimes liberal and progressive, sometimes a social basis for right-wing reaction?'...specialists in Marxist class theory will find it covers most recent developments in analysis and is constructively self-critical.' -- Reviewing Sociology, Vol 3, Issue 3, 1984
