Tribes or classes

I read an old issue of the kiwi magazine ‘Idealog‘ and found an article about Jill Caldwell and Christopher Brown’s book: 8 tribes. I purchased the book recently to upgrade my culture and to satisfy my curiosity about people surrounding me everyday. The book is like a sociological survey of New Zealanders to define them better than just typical friendly, hardworking, down-to-earth clichés. I smiled as some tribe’s description and values would be true in France also- like anywhere else. A
