A groundbreaking examination of the growing inequality gap from the bestselling author of Bowling Alone: why fewer Americans today have the opportunity for upward mobility.
It’s the American dream: get a good education, work hard, buy a house, and achieve prosperity and success. This is the America we believe in—a nation of opportunity, constrained only by ability and effort. But during the last twenty-five years we have seen a disturbing “opportunity gap” emerge. Americans have always believed in equality of opportunity, the idea that all kids, regardless of their family background, should have a decent chance to improve their lot in life. Now, this central tenet of the American dream seems no longer true or at the least, much less true than it was.
Robert Putnam—about whom The Economist said, “his scholarship is wide-ranging, his intelligence luminous, his tone modest, his prose unpretentious and frequently funny”—offers a personal but also authoritative look at this new American crisis. Putnam begins with his high school class of 1959 in Port Clinton, Ohio. By and large the vast majority of those students—“our kids”—went on to lives better than those of their parents. But their children and grandchildren have had harder lives amid diminishing prospects. Putnam tells the tale of lessening opportunity through poignant life stories of rich and poor kids from cities and suburbs across the country, drawing on a formidable body of research done especially for this book.
Our Kids is a rare combination of individual testimony and rigorous evidence. Putnam provides a disturbing account of the American dream that should initiate a deep examination of the future of our country.

读后感
Intro 大概是去年的六月，正是考研人正式进入备考状态的时期，我向波波谈起了对社会阶层的思考与抱怨，那时（当然现在也是）我常常陷入一种怨天尤人的状态里，急需来自长辈的开导，虽然她连自己的事情都忙不完，但还是会发给我长长的语音转文字的回答，让人心生温暖。就是这时...
评分 评分全书对美国现在社会分层固化的几个主要方面进行讨论：家庭结构、家庭教育、学校教育、社区环境。总结了这些方面的社会科学研究的结果，然后针对每一个专题专门采访了正面负面各一个家庭做例子，并以这些家庭的故事开头，给枯燥的统计数字带来些直观的感受。总的结论很简单，就...
评分就像跟随作者进入到不同的家庭，观察他们的孩子为什么赢/输在起跑线上；看书的过程中也在回忆自己的成长经历，问问自己有没有过时的片面的甚至宿命的育儿理念，这些理念可能会先于专业知识，影响我的孩子。当父母可能不是最难的，但可能是对知识的鲜度、对理论与实际的结合、对...
评分美国政治学者罗伯特•帕特南所写《我们的孩子》一书，讲述了一些下层阶级和中上层阶级的孩子成长环境的差异，从而导致长大之后的境遇不同。这些故事都是如此的生动，让你发现，两个美国世界的存在。正如《北京折叠》故事里，上、中、下不同的世界不相往来一般。我记得去过印...
用户评价
So kids from affluent, educated homes get the best of both worlds—more monetary investment (because their parents can afford it) and more time investment (because their two parents are able to make it a priority)—whereas kids from lower-class homes get the worst of both worlds.
评分it is unfair. not much new. focusing only on the US
评分本书写法的精髓在于把枯燥的统计数据转换成栩栩如生的例子，读到最后，你不能不感叹，穷孩子富孩子都是“我们”的孩子。很多人也许看不到贫穷人民的生活状态，甚至无法理解他们做的种种决定。但恰恰是因为稀有的资源而剥夺了他们进一步上升的渠道。如果把这个仅仅归于他们不够聪明，不够努力，实在有失偏颇。
评分很有启发
评分2.5星吧，优点是说的都是大实话、有案例而不是干巴巴、最后努力给建议，缺点是忽略了国际国内政经大背景、社会价值观和政经体制缺陷、以及干货太少都是废话
