具体描述

Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America is a book written by Barbara Ehrenreich. Written from her perspective as an undercover journalist, it sets out to investigate the impact of the 1996 welfare reform act on the working poor in the United States.

The events related in the book took place between spring 1998 and summer 2000. The book was first published in 2001 by Metropolitan Books. An earlier version appeared as an article in the January 1999 issue of Harper's magazine. Ehrenreich later wrote a companion book, Bait and Switch (published September 2005), which discusses her attempt to find a white-collar job.

作者简介

Barbara Ehrenreich is an American writer and political activist who describes herself as "a myth buster by trade", and has been called "a veteran muckraker" by The New Yorker.During the 1980s and early 1990s she was a prominent figure in the Democratic Socialists of America. She is a widely read and award-winning columnist and essayist, and author of 21 books. Ehrenreich is perhaps best known for her 2001 book Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America. A memoir of Ehrenreich's three-month experiment surviving on minimum wage as a waitress, hotel maid, house cleaner, nursing-home aide, and Wal-Mart clerk, it was described by Newsweek magazine as "jarring" and "full of riveting grit",and by The New Yorker as an "exposé" putting "human flesh on the bones of such abstractions as 'living wage' and 'affordable housing'"

先得说一句,这本书不知道是否是翻译的原因,言语不够流畅,而作者的原文,絮絮叨叨的废话也太多,但是这本书我依然推荐大家一读。 美国专栏作家芭芭拉·艾伦瑞克在1998年,为了体验底层美国人民的生活,选择了六个地方,在不同的城市去打工。 为了确保她能真实体验当地底层...

不同于电视情景喜剧和好莱坞电影中的美国,另一个美国是一个被其自身忽视的隐密大陆。很少见诸报道的关于美国梦的真相就是,这个国家也存在着分布广泛、不断增长和不可避免的贫穷。在这个国家中,那些做着基础工作的人们,只能拿到低于生存标准的薪资。 芭芭拉•艾伦瑞克潜...

We are so used to social status we reside and hence lose the view of the whole picture. The rich does not understand the middle class. Middle class does not understand the working class. The working class does not understand the poor. It is so hard to move between the classes even if you try, try, and try.

SOCL102课无聊的Textbook, 太过于浅显易懂而且没有深入思考了,好吧最后的Evaluation部分还可以,但这种体验生活的Field Trip方式对我而言实在是既没有社会学调查的严谨,也没有理论思想的深刻,只能是作家的无聊小随笔? Chris
