In reality, we strive to set ourselves apart from other people, other population groups, other thought patterns and other behaviours.

Man or woman, young or old, strong or weak, rich or poor, regardless of social status, religion or nation - the mechanisms are always the same: the less privileged insist on their honest \u201ehacker status\u201c and rail against the snobs \u201eup there\u201c; the so-called educated middle classes shake their heads in pique at voters of right-wing populist parties and order the organic canister with a cosy feeling. Consumer behaviour is becoming a status symbol, the profession an identity and political difference an enemy. Sociologist Laura Wiesb\u00f6ck gets to the bottom of our longing for superiority with verve, humour and knowledge - and reveals some unpleasant truths in the process.<\/p>\n
