Twilight of the Elites
In "Twilight of the Elites," Christopher Hayes presents a provocative analysis of America's crumbling meritocracy. He argues that our society's most trusted institutions have failed us, from Wall Street to Congress, from academia to the Catholic Church. Hayes explores how the very systems designed to select the best and brightest have instead created a new class of privileged insiders, disconnected from the rest of society. This book challenges readers to reconsider their assumptions about success, power, and equality in modern America. Through compelling examples and sharp insights, Hayes reveals the deep-rooted problems in our meritocratic system and offers a fresh perspective on how we might rebuild trust and fairness in our society.
