Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the historical connections between intellectuals and wage-workers, arguing that their alliance is crucial for social progress. It examines how the Industrial Revolution and the rise of the middle class changed the relationship between artists, scientists, and their patrons, leading to a decline in patronage and a shift towards precarious employment for those in the creative field. The author traces the development of class consciousness among workers and the emergence of the labor movement, highlighting the need for intellectuals to join with laborers in the fight for a more just and equitable society. The book explores the ideological roots of both egalitarianism and class struggle, drawing on historical and philosophical sources to provide a comprehensive analysis of the forces that have shaped our understanding of equality. Ultimately, it argues that by embracing a critical and self-reflexive approach, intellectuals can contribute to a more rational and compassionate social order in which all individuals have the opportunity to live freely and with dignity.
