American declinism and the impact of petro-socialism
Irrespective of self-inflicted setbacks, the United States is and will be the ‘indispensable nation’ for the foreseeable future – not merely as the world's largest market, military power and source of technological innovation but also as trendsetter. Doubtless, the United States has fallen back during the G.W. Bush presidency – preoccupied with events in Iraq and an economic slowdown and financial crisis that are now reflected in waning neo-conse…

It may be too early to speak of the advent of a leisure society, though the breakthroughs of microtechnology are bringing it very close. Two relevant theories are critically examined: the one, that of leisure, in contrast to consumption and work, as the unique arena for self-expression; and the other, that of post-industrial society, reflecting the two opposing perspectives of the ‘work centralist’ versus the ‘convivial’ vision. Both theories are…
The Challenge of Corporatism
The Newly Acquisitive Affluent Worker
This paper takes issue with the thesis of embourgeoisement in all its various manifestations; from its initial presumption of manual workers having become normatively as well as materially enhanced, to its most recent version depicting the working class as beset by predatory acquisitiveness and crass hedonism to an extent where their previous social betters have found themselves compelled to adopt their 'cash on the table' mentality in sheer self…
