NEW BOOK RELEASE, "Erotic Capital" The Power of Attraction in the Boardroom AND the Bedroom




Author: Catherine Hakim



Description

In 2010, pioneering sociologist Catherine Hakim shocked the world with a provocative new theory: In addition to the three recognized personal assets (economic, cultural, and social capital), each individual has a fourth asset—erotic capital—that he or she can, and should, use to advance within society. In this bold and controversial book, Hakim explores the applications and significance of erotic capital, challenging the disapproval meted out to women and men who use sex appeal to get ahead in life. 

Social scientists have paid little serious attention to these modes of personal empowerment, despite overwhelming evidence of their importance. In Erotic Capital, Hakim marshals a trove of research to show that rather than degrading those who employ it, erotic capital represents a powerful and potentially equalizing tool—one that we scorn only to our own detriment.

Hakim proposes that in addition to economic, social and cultural capitals, each person, additionally, is or isn't endowed with  "erotic capital," subdivided into six different but interrelated "assets": 

  1. beauty
  2. sexual attractiveness
  3. social skills (like grace, charm, and flirting)
  4. liveliness (a mixture of physical fitness, social energy and good humor)
  5. social presentation (including dress, jewelry and other such adornments)
  6. sexuality itself competence, energy, imagination)

The American Dream defined by Historian and writer James Truslow Adams in his 1931 book, "Epic of America".

The American Dream defined
The American Dream DEFINED: The American Dream is that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement. It is a difficult dream for the European upper classes to interpret adequately, and too many of us ourselves have grown weary and mistrustful of it. It is not a dream of motor cars and high wages merely, but a dream of social order in which each man and each women shall be able to attain to the fullest stature of which they are innately capable, and be recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position.-- Historian and writer James Truslow Adams in his 1931 book Epic of America.
