Abstract
The paper discusses middle managers and administrators - a sizeable and developing stratum in the contemporary capitalist society. Their con tradictory class situation leads one to regard them as belonging to the middle strata'. Changes in their material conditions in the last decades are briefly considered, and shifts in their moods and attitudes in greater detail Four main types of their social orientations are suggested The author concludes that the growing identification of middle managers with their own social group (now emerging as the major orientation) - and the corresponding weakening of identification with the employer's interests - is an advance in their historical development.
