Michael Lind in BeliefNet on class struggle in politics

by Mark Schill 08/26/2009

"Writing from the left, Michael Lind has some pretty sobering words for his fellow liberals today, in a column asking whether or not liberalism is possible without labor unions. His point is that liberal politics today, unlike the recent past, is primarily a matter of social and cultural elites mobilized around issues that appeal primarily to educated urbanites, who typically have little interest in the economic struggles of the working-class people for whom they presume to speak."
