Title : The Hourglass Effect - Jean-Marc Vittori - book
Summary :
In the past, society resembled a pyramid, in which all the intermediate levels constituted the middle classes. Today, some are propelled upwards. Others descend. The pyramid is succeeded by an hourglass. The middle classes are afraid. They are right, because they are disappearing. Beyond the theme of "eternal decline," the author analyzes the deep forces at work, likely to explain this "end of the middle": the role of the computer and the Internet, the destruction of the pyramid model in the organization of businesses, in their production, in our consumption and then in society as a whole, including the political world. If the mechanism of the crushing of the middle classes is inevitable, the future is not written for all that: it is therefore without pessimism that Jean-Marc Vittori invites everyone to invent the new priorities imposed by his diagnosis.
