The Global Middle Classes by Rachel Heiman
Surging middle-class aspirations and anxieties throughout the world have recently compelled anthropologists to pay serious attention to middle classes and middle-class spaces, sentiments, lifestyles, labours, and civic engagements. Middle classness has become a powerful category for self-identification, as political and corporate leaders increasingly hail “the middle classes” as the ideal subject-citizenry. Ethnographically rich and culturally particular, the essays in this volume elucidate middle-class experience and discourse and in so doing add critical nuance to theories of class itself.-
