The 'Marginal Hems of Society': that should be the canary-in-the-coalmine' focus. I see society divided in 3 cultural-economic states.. The extremes of Wealth/Poverty 2. the (presently comfortable) middle to which the politicians pander. 3. those just on the fringes of wealth or destitution who are threatened and tempted by the calls of both to escape or expediently exploit.

The wealthy and the destitute see the reality of privilege and the failings of societal and cultural fissures. Their wills are resolved for the necessities of expedience they will do, due to the failures of the pedagogy presented as "educational learning" that's really caste subordination for those not with self-developed talents or connections.

They, whose skills were not nurtured by incidental home environment or the structured school environment, find themselves without the credentialed skills to have access, since they didn't know what they needed to know and understand. By the time its realized the opportunity of time and place has slipped through their fingers like water. It's then that the pathologies of the extreme compound themselves to degrade and rot the structure from within in both the intangible and derived tangible optics.
