What is The Rise of Professional Society : England Since 1880 about?
<p><P><i>The Rise of Professional Society</i> lays out a stimulating and controversial framework for the study of British society, challenging accepted paradigms based on class analysis. Perkins argues that the non-capitalist "professional class" represents a new principle of social organization based on trained expertise and meritocracy, a "forgotten middle class" conveniently overlooked by classical social theorists.</P></p>
