The Coming of Neo-Feudalism (Complete Audiobook)

This is a great audio book by Joel Kotkin wherein he describes how, following a remarkable epoch of greater dispersion of wealth and opportunity, we are inexorably being herded by the unelected global elite towards a more feudal era marked by greater concentration of wealth and property, reduced upward mobility, demographic stagnation, and increased dogmatism. If the last seventy years saw a massive expansion of the middle class, not only in America but in much of the developed world, today that class is declining and a new, more hierarchical society is emerging.

At the apex of the new order are two classes--a reborn clerical elite, the clericy, which dominates the upper part of the professional ranks, universities, media and culture, and a new aristocracy led by tech oligarchs with unprecedented wealth and growing control of information.

This includes the yeomanry, which is made up largely of small business people, minor property owners, skilled workers and private-sector oriented professionals.
