Аннотация

The author examines a set of parameters that are characteristic of the middle class and distinguish it from other social groups. An analysis of the current state of the middle class in the USA and Russia is given, allowing us to assess both its multifaceted importance and its vulnerability due to sanctions, structural changes in the labor market, digitalization and exporting jobs to other countries. Particular attention is paid to the comparison of black and white households in the United States in terms of results achieved in social mobility, including success in doing business, getting an education and finding employment in the labor market.
