具體描述

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.

著者簡介

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'"

評分

自己會對這書感興趣,源于在別處偶然看到的評論,大意提到作者在超市打工時,在精神和身體雙重折磨的高壓下,怎樣從一個心懷憐憫、關心底層、遠見卓識的Intellectuel,逐步被同化爲她的“一些底層同事”那樣——苛刻、狡猾、小肚鷄腸、滿懷怨恨。而我則同樣非常能夠理解“離人...

前阵知乎上曾讨论过“生活大爆炸”中Penny的收入能否真的让她过得比较滋润,当时有人引据各种美国的生活数据,证明她是可以过得还不错的。不久之后又看到这本亲历女服务员生活的书,才发现了阳光下的另一面。 《我在底层的生活》,也就是芭芭拉的《Nickel and Dimed》。在《社...

底層人民的生活展示

SOCL102課無聊的Textbook, 太過於淺顯易懂而且沒有深入思考瞭,好吧最後的Evaluation部分還可以,但這種體驗生活的Field Trip方式對我而言實在是既沒有社會學調查的嚴謹,也沒有理論思想的深刻,隻能是作傢的無聊小隨筆? Chris
