In this reissue of the 1972 classic of social anatomy, Richard
Sennets adds a new introduction to shows how the injuries of class
persist into the 21st century. In this intrepid, groundbreaking
book, Richard Sennett and Jonathan Cobb uncover and define a new
form of class conflict in America?an internal conflict in the heart
and mind of the blue-collar worker who measures his own value
against those lives and occupations to which our society gives a
special premium.The authors conclude that in the games of
hierarchical respect, no class can emerge the victor; and that true
egalitarianism can be achieved only by rediscovering diverse
concepts of human dignity. Examining personal feelings in terms of
a totality of human relations, and looking beyond the struggle for
economic survival, The Hidden Injuries of Class takes an important
step forward in the sociological critique of everyday life.
