Social Class in Europe
Mapping the class divisions that run throughout Europe Over the last ten years - especially with the 'no' votes in the French and Dutch referendums in 2010, and the victory for Brexit in 2016 - the issue of Europe has been placed at the centre of major political conflicts. Each of these crises has revealed profound splits in society, which are represented in terms of an opposition between those countries on the losing and those on the winning sides of globalisation. Inequalities beyond those between nations are critically absent from the debate. Based on major European statistical surveys, the new research in this work presents a map of social classes inspired by Pierre Bourdieu's sociology. It reveals the common features of the working class, the intermediate class and the privileged class in Europe. National features combine with social inequalities, through an account of the social distance between specific groups in nations in the North and in the countries of the South and East of Europe. The book ends with a reflection on the conditions that would be required for the emergence of a Europe-wide social movement.
The Resistible Corrosion of Europe’s Center-Left After 2008
This book examines and explains the Center-Left’s political decline since 2008, whilst analyzing the factors that account for its sagging electoral and popular support, losing voters both to the Far-Left, the Far-Right, and abstentions. Focusing on the era since the 2008 financial crisis in particular, while also charting the historical genealogy that led to the current impasse, the book examines how, when and why the collapse of Europe’s Center-Left occurred. Moving beyond existing and slightly dated accounts, the contributors explore why Social Democrats lack compelling answers to pressing current policy challenges. Faced with a decline in its core clientele, namely blue-collar workers...
Cédric
Cédric J. Rothschild was introduced in two previous novels, The Timecharger and La Charlière through second-hand accounts after Cédric's death. This book, Cédric, goes back in time to tell the life story of this remarkable scientist, discoverer, and inventor from the beginning. His hypothesis that the speed of light slows down in the vicinity of massive objects led to the discovery of microfusion, unlocking the energy source of neutron stars and ending once and for all the tyranny of fossil fuels. The discovery of microfusion and the subsequent discovery of antigravity took place in the small town of Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne in the French Alps. Cédric is a prequel, completing the trilogy of the William Grovére collection of novels. At a time when more wars and rumors of war over fossil fuels and petroleum blackmail stir once again in the world, Cédric offers a more optimistic view of what the future may hold for my grandchildren, who are Cédric’s contemporaries today.
