"Whether in regard to the economy or issues of war and peace, class
is central to our everyday lives. Yet class has not been as visible
as race or gender, not nearly as much a part of our conversations
and sense of ourselves as these and other 'identities.' We are of
course all individuals, but our individuality and personal life
chances are shaped limited or enhanced by the economic and social
class in which we have grown up and in which we exist as adults."
from the IntroductionThe contributors to this volume argue that
class identity in the United States has been hidden for too long.
Their essays, published here for the first time, cover the relation
of class to race and gender, to globalization and public policy,
and to the lives of young adults. They describe how class, defined
in terms of economic and political power rather than income, is in
fact central to Americans' everyday lives. What's Class Got to Do
with It? is an important resource for the new field of working
class studies."
