The Conflict Between Classes and Cultural Dominance
The chapter discusses the notion of a class-based conflict in history involving an upper stratum elite and contenders for elite positions, with a coalition forming between the elite and the lower class to wage war against the middle class. It explores how this conflict is reflected in cultural dominance and movies, portraying religious, conservative, and middle-class individuals as antagonists.
