The United States is becoming a nation of rich and poor, with few families in the middle. In this book, MIT economist Peter Temin offers an illuminating way to look at the vanishing middle class. Temin argues that American history and politics, particularly slavery and its aftermath, play an important part in the widening gap between rich and poor. Temin employs a well-known, simple model of a dual economy to examine the dynamics of the rich/poor divide in America.

Für so manche ist Kriminalkommissar ein Traumberuf, in dem man Gutes tun und Vorbildern wie den vielen TV-Kommissaren nacheifern kann.

Eigentlich erhoffte er sich durch seine Rückversetzung in die Oldenburger Polizeiinspektion nur eins: lieber Fahrraddieben das Handwerk legen, als brutale und kaltblütige Verbrechen aufzuklären.
