| Even though Americans like to think of themselves as individualists, the truth is more than half are far from independent. After ten, Veronica Rueckert and her guest take a look at the rising trend of living alone. Once thought as a solitary livelihood for spinsters, it turns out today's singletons are deeply engaged in social and civic life - and far from lonely! (Repeat broadcast from 2/24/2012)
Guest: Eric Klinenberg is Professor of Sociology, Public Policy, and Media, Culture, and Communications at New York University, and editor of the journal Public Culture. His latest book is "Going Solo: The Extraordinary Rise and Surprising Appeal of Living Alone". |
