The Inclining Significance of Class
內容大綱
The Rise of the Creative Class, Revisited is an eighteen chapter book published in 2012 by Basic Books and written by Richard Florida, of the University of Toronto's Rotman School of Management and New York University. The author presents a revised and expanded version of his classic work, which pioneered the idea that our society is in the midst of a fundamental economic and cultural shift led by an emerging class of people, defined by their occupations as the Creative Class. He argues that human creativity has become the pivotal force at the heart of current societal change. Supporting his theory with substantial research and grounding his arguments in classic historical and economic thinking, Florida sheds new light on successful Creative Age companies and cities. In Chapter 17, The Inclining Significance of Class (15 pages), the author posits that socioeconomic status is the key influence on quality of life. He says that class is mostly a factor of the work we do, and as such, predetermines a wide range of lifestyle variables, including politics, happiness, fitness, commuting, gun ownership, and dental care. He shows the inequality between the classes and posits that the way to overcome the class divide is to fully realize the potential of the Creative Economy.
