In his groundbreaking book, The Case Against the Professional Managerial Class, Robert Kuttner meticulously documents how the professional managerial class has corrupted capitalism and subverted democracy. This essential read exposes the truth behind the unchecked power and greed that has led to economic inequality, political polarization, and the erosion of our social fabric.

Who is the Professional Managerial Class?

The professional managerial class (PMC) is a social class that emerged in the late 20th century. It is comprised of highly educated professionals who work in management, finance, law, academia, and other white-collar occupations. The PMC is often seen as the driving force behind the modern economy, and its members are typically well-paid and have a high standard of living.

How the PMC has Corrupted Capitalism

Kuttner argues that the PMC has corrupted capitalism by using its power and influence to enrich itself at the expense of the working class. He documents how the PMC has lobbied for policies that benefit its own interests, such as tax breaks and deregulation, while working to suppress policies that would help the poor and working class.

How the PMC has Subverted Democracy

Kuttner also argues that the PMC has subverted democracy by using its control of the media and other institutions to promote its own agenda. He shows how the PMC has used its power to silence dissent and to create a climate of fear and intolerance.

The Consequences of PMC Rule

The unchecked power and greed of the PMC has had devastating consequences for our society. It has led to economic inequality, political polarization, and the erosion of our social fabric. Kuttner argues that if we do not take action to curb the power of the PMC, our democracy and our economy will continue to suffer.

What can be done?

Kuttner offers a number of solutions to the problem of PMC corruption. He calls for reforming our tax system, regulating the financial industry, and strengthening our labor laws. He also argues that we need to promote a more democratic media and to encourage greater civic engagement.
The Case Against the Professional Managerial Class is a powerful and timely book that exposes the truth about the corruption of capitalism and the subversion of democracy. This essential read is a must-have for anyone who wants to understand the challenges facing our society and to work towards a more just and equitable future.
