Daniel J. Walkowitz Boeken

Exploring the evolving concept of "middle class," historian Daniel Walkowitz delves into the role of social workers in defining and navigating class boundaries over the past century. By analyzing their experiences and perspectives, the book reveals how perceptions of middle class status have shifted and become increasingly complex, reflecting broader societal changes. This unique approach offers insights into the contested nature of class identity in America, challenging readers to reconsider their own understandings of social stratification.

In recent decades, Jewish heritage tourism has grown to occupy a major space within the world of museums and memorials. But there is a critical omission - Jewish socialist history is absent from heritage tourist sites. Daniel Walkowitz analyses this gap in public history, presenting the absence of Jewish socialism as a case study in the politics of history and memory.
