El texto intentara rastrear los procesos de recomposicion economica de las clases dominantes luego de la salida devaluatoria de la crisis neoliberal en Argentina, especificamente en el periodo 2002-2009. Abordamos aqui, de manera renovada, las clasicas preguntas elaboradas en los estudios latinoamericanos de economia politica: que fracciones lideran el proceso de acumulacion, cual es el origen de estas fracciones y en que ramas de la produccion se ubican.English Abstract: This article focuses on the economic changes at Ruling Class level within a framework of the new Argentine development mode in the twenty-first century. The text will try to trace the economic reassembling processes of the Ruling Classes after the neoliberal crisis in Argentina, specifically, in the 2002-2009 period. We address here in a renewed manner, the typical questions elaborated by the Latin-American studies of political economy: which fractions are leading the accumulation process, which are the origins of these fractions and in what production branches they are located?

what does the Ruling Class do when it rules state apparatuses and state power under feudalism capitalism and socialism
2016Co-Authors: Goran TherbornAbstract:In his new book, Goran Therborn - author of the now standard comparative work on Classical sociology and historical materialism, "Science, Class and Society" - looks at successive state structures in an arrestingly fresh perspective. Therborn uses the formal categories of modern system analysis - input mechanisms, processes of transformation, output flows - to advance a substantive Marxist analysis of state power and state apparatuses. His account of these is comparative in the most far-reaching historical sense: its object is nothing less than the construction of systematic typology of the differences between the feudal state, the capitalist state and the socialist state. Therborn ranges from the monarchies of mediaeval Europe through the bourgeois democracies of the west in the 20th century to the contemporary regimes in Russia, Eastern Europe and China. The book ends with a major analytic survey of the strategies of working Class parties for socialism, from the Second International to the Comintern to Eurocommunism, that applies the structural findings of Therborn's enquiry in the 'Future as History'. Written with lucidity and economy, "What Does the Ruling Class Do when it Rules?" represents a remarkable sociological and political synthesis.

the american left s emerging social Class consciousness of envy in collusion with the existing american Ruling Class consciousness of greed
Social Science Research Network, 2020Co-Authors: Laurie Thomas VassAbstract:Our article’s topic begins in the aftermath of the 2016 election with the entry of the term “resistance” by Democrats into the American political lexicon of social justice. Resistance is a new term in American political discourse, and our podcast explores how the idea of the left’s resistance to the election of Donald Trump explains a new Class consciousness emerging among Democrat voters. We contrast the left’s resistance to Trump with Angelo Codevilla’s insight that the resistance could also mean the resistance of Trump voter’s to the power of the American Ruling Class. (Codevilla Angelo, Revolution 2020.The American Mind, September 23, 2020.) Codevilla creates a hypothetical dynamic in Class consciousness between BLM Democrats and middle Class Trump voters, using the concept of resistance.

was there ever a Ruling Class social and economic mobility in england 1200 2010
Research Papers in Economics, 2011Co-Authors: Gregory ClarkAbstract:"Using surnames we follow the socio-economic status of elites and underClasses in England all the way from 1066 to 2011. Paradoxically we find two things. The first is that England does not have, and never had, a persistent Ruling elite. Social mobility in the long run for the indigenous English and western European migrants has been complete. The second, however, is that mobility rates are much lower than social scientists conventionally measure, and have increased little between the middle ages and now. There is one big change between the years before and after 1850. Before then elites had higher fertility than the poor. Since then elite groups display much lower fertility, so that the permanent effect of a period spent at the social summit is a reduction in number of descendants, even when the group returns to average status."

was there ever a Ruling Class rare surnames and long run social mobility in england 1858 2011
2011Co-Authors: Gregory ClarkAbstract:Using rare English surnames we follow the socio-economic status of a group of rich and poor families in 1858-87 over 5 generations. We measure social status both through wealth at death, and through average age at death. Our method allows an unbiased estimate of the mobility rate. Paradoxically we find two things. The mobility rate is lower than conventionally estimated. There is considerable persistence of status. But because the process continues uninterrupted generation after generation, 8-12 generations will wipe out all trace of earlier advantage and disadvantage. The upper Class will dissolve into the mass of society, and the underClass rise to a comfortable mediocrity. The only difference is that there will be substantially more descendants of the lower Class in all future generations than of the upper Class.

was there ever a Ruling Class a proposal for the study of 800 years of social mobility
Investigaciones de Historia Económica, 2010Co-Authors: Gregory ClarkAbstract:This paper reports on a preliminary investigation of surnames distributions as a measure long run social mobility. In England this suggests two surprising claims. First, England, all the way from the heart of the Middle Ages in 1250 to at least 1860, was a society without persistent social Classes. It was a world of social mobility, with no permanent over-Class and under-Class, a world of complete equal opportunity. There was, however, a gain from being in the upper Class in any generation in the form of leaving more copies of your DNA permanently in later populations. Second, signs of persistent social Classes have only emerged in societies like England and the United States in recent years. Instead of moving from a world of immobility and Class rigidity to a world of equal opportunity, we have moved in the opposite direction.
