C. Wright Mills's seminal work, "White Collar," presents a penetrating sociological analysis of the American middle class in the mid-20th century. This non-fiction study meticulously dissects the lives, aspirations, and anxieties of office workers, managers, and professionals, revealing the profound shifts in their social and economic roles within modern industrial society. Mills argues that the white-collar worker, once a symbol of independence, has become increasingly alienated and powerless, caught between the traditional working class and the powerful elite. The book offers a critical examination of the bureaucratic structures and consumer culture that shape contemporary life, making it an essential read for students of sociology, history, and anyone interested in the evolution of American society.
