We have British intellectual—founder of think tanks, editor—David Goodhart, to thank for the distinction between “Anywheres” and “Somewheres,” the replacement for the more traditional left-right or class-based distinctions which were, until recently, used to describe democratic politics.
Anywheres “have portable, ‘achieved’ identities, based on educational and career success which makes them generally comfortable and confident with new places and people. . . . [They place] a much lower value on . . . faith, flag and family.”
