Originally published in England in 1959, this book evolves a new theory of conflict in industrial society. By way of illustrating and testing this theory, the book provides detailed analyses of various social phenomena. The author carries out a full critique of Marx in the light of history and modern sociology and discusses the theories of class-conflict of James Burnham, Fritz Croner and Karl Renner.

‘Professor Dahrendorf has, with dazzling erudition, examined the principal attitudes to questions of class from Marx to Shelsky, Weber to Riesman and, mostly found them wanting.’ W. John Morgan, New Statesman
‘One of the most provocative contributions to social theory that has appeared in recent years. No sociologist concerned with ongoing social theory can afford to ignore this book.’ American Journal of Sociology.
