Leven in twee werelden

The present review discusses the book Transklasse. Leven in twee werelden by Lenette Schuijt, author and professional consultant for managers aiming at leadership for a more humane world. This book, partially autobiographic, tells the reader what it means to become a social climber in all its aspects: coming loose of the original milieu, entering a new one, the different cultures, difficulties to be met, feelings of discomfort, and so forth. Her account is thoroughgoing critical of social structure, its class division and class feeling. The author of this review adds to this remarks on the position of the underclass.
