<strong>in</strong>dividuals, over the course of their lives? 2: WHO RULES AMERICA?: The Corporate Community and the Upper Class 2. How does the set of socializ<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>stitutions for upper-class males differ <strong>in</strong> composition from the set that socializes upper-class females? 3. Accord<strong>in</strong>g to the author, the upper class have managed to <strong>in</strong>sulate themselves and their way of life from the rest of us, despite the passage of a few hundred years and significant social changes there<strong>in</strong>; for example, <strong>in</strong> regard to equal rights for women and m<strong>in</strong>orities. In your op<strong>in</strong>ion, can anyth<strong>in</strong>g be done to dismantle the rigidity of the class structure <strong>in</strong> our society? If “yes,” what sorts of social action do you recommend be taken to accomplish this? If “no,” why are changes <strong>in</strong> the class structure impossible, <strong>in</strong> your view? 45
