The Return Of The Middle Class (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163242872)

The Return of the Middle Class by John Corbin is a book that explores the history and current state of the middle class in America. Corbin argues that the middle class, which has long been considered the backbone of the American economy and society, is in danger of disappearing due to a variety of economic, social, and political factors.The book begins by tracing the origins of the middle class in America, from the post-World War II boom years to the economic and social upheavals of the 1960s and 70s. Corbin then examines the various challenges that the middle class has faced in recent years, including stagnant wages, rising debt, and a shrinking job market.Throughout the book, Corbin provides examples of how the middle class has been affected by these challenges, drawing on interviews with ordinary Americans as well as data and research from a wide range of sources. He also offers a number of policy recommendations aimed at helping to restore the middle class to its former strength and vitality.Overall, The Return of the Middle Class is a thought-provoking and informative book that sheds light on an important and timely topic. It will be of interest to anyone who is concerned about the future of the American economy and society, and who wants to understand the challenges that the middle class faces in the 21st century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
