How is it possible for a highly educated woman with a career and resources of her own to stay in a marriage with an abusive husband? How can a man be considered a pillar of his community, run a successful business, yet regularly give his wife a black eye? The very nature of these questions proves our unarticulated assumption that domestic violence is restricted to the lower classes. When we do hear stories of high-profile victims, we regard them as exceptional cases and still believe abuse doesn't happen to "people like us." Now Susan Weitzman counters this assumption by exploring a heretofore overlooked population of battered wives-the well-educated, upper-income women who rarely report abuse and remain trapped by their own silence.

Les discours sur l'effort individuel récompensé par le marché, sur les créateurs d'entreprise nouveaux maîtres du monde, sur les investisseurs institutionnels ou sur la démocratisation des placements financiers escamotent l'existence de la bourgeoisie. Pourtant, aucun milieu social ne présente à ce degré unité, conscience de soi et mobilisation. Ce livre lève un coin du voile qui recouvre ses mystères et montre ce qui constitue en classe ce groupe apparemment composite. La richesse de la bourgeoisie est multiforme, alliage d'argent, de culture, de relations sociales et de prestige. Comment les bourgeois vivent-ils ? Comment sont-ils organisés ? La bourgeoisie est-elle menacée de disparition ? Dans quelles conditions ses positions dominantes se reproduisent-elles d'une génération à l'autre ? Quel est le rôle des lignées dans la transmission de ces positions ? La bourgeoisie est-elle la dernière classe sociale ? C'est notamment à ces questions sur cet univers méconnu et qui préférerait le rester que répond ce livre rigoureux et accessible.

In a study that stretches over two centuries and four countries, Helgerson unearths the shared preoccupations of European domestic drama and painting. The result is an unexpected prehistory of the nineteenth- and twentieth-century cult of domesticity. [publisher's description]
