Annotation Between 1977 and 1997, the union wage premium declined for less- educated workers, while it rose for better-educated union workers. In this study, Baldwin (professor emeritus, economics, University of Wisconsin-Madison) investigates the role of changes in US imports and exports and finds that increased global trade has contributed to the decline in unionization among workers with less education.

The author is convinced that there is a ruling class in America today. He examines the American power structure as it has developed in the 1980s. He presents systematic, empirical evidence that a fixed group of privileged people dominates the American economy and government. The book demonstrates that an upper class comprising only one-half of one percent of the population occupies key positions within the corporate community. It shows how leaders within this "power elite" reach government and dominate it through processes of special-interest lobbying, policy planning and candidate selection. It is written not to promote any political ideology, but to analyze our society with accuracy.
