This simple framework does an astonishing amount of moral, political, and empirical work in explaining contention over fractious issues of racial, gender, and class inequalities, as well as who deserves to become an American. If any book can make us communicate better and engage more effectively, this is the one.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJennifer Hochschild, Harvard University\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“It might be thought that the typical person’s views about gender, racial, or income inequality are a booming-buzzing admixture of beliefs that accrete in happenstance fashion. Not so! In this elegant contribution, it’s argued that there are but two inequality worldviews in play, each very coherently organized around different first principles. A bold analysis of the cultural underpinnings of today’s inequality wars.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid B.

They argue that, before Americans can find lasting solutions to today’s seemingly intractable societal challenges, they will need to recognize that each side possesses a wisdom the other lacks. Only then can we achieve the common ground and consensus we seek.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eChapter 1.
