Petite bourgeoisie

Petite bourgeoisie is a French term that means small business owners or people of the middle class. They make enough money to support their families, but do not own a lot of expensive things. They usually have a job that involves buying and selling items, such as running a store or doing repairs. They are sometimes called “small business owners” or “independent professionals”. Petite bourgeoisie is often seen as an honorable role in society, because it allows people to make an honest living and contribute to their local economy.
