  • Un club de caballeros (del inglés: Gentlemen's club) es un tipo de club privado, abierto sólo a sus miembros, inicialmente de clase alta, que apareció en Gran Bretaña durante el siglo XVIII y se popularizó entre la clase media alta a finales del siglo XIX. En la actualidad, algunos de estos clubs tienen unas condiciones de admisión de socios mucho más relajadas en lo relativo al estatus social y al género, ya que aceptan también a mujeres. En Estados Unidos la expresión gentlemen's club se utiliza con frecuencia como eufemismo para referirse a un club de estriptis, especialmente si es alto nivel. (es)
  • Un gentlemen’s club est, au sens traditionnel et dans la culture britannique, une association d'individus issus généralement de la « haute société », et se considérant comme des « honnêtes hommes », se rassemblant par groupe d'affinité, à la fois érudits et philanthropes, et se réunissant dans le but de partager des connaissances, des réseaux, des idées politiques et plus généralement culturelles, et des loisirs. Pour en être membre d'un club, il faut répondre à certains critères socio-économiques, être coopté, payer une cotisation, ce n'est donc pas un lieu public. Cette tradition, dont on trouve des traces dès la période élisabéthaine, se structure en fonction de codes précis au milieu du XVIIIe siècle. Le phénomène connaît son apogée dans les années 1880 et tend aujourd'hui à disparaître. L'évolution du club, du moins à Londres, se fait parallèlement à celle des loges de la franc-maçonnerie anglaise qui sont tolérées depuis la Glorieuse Révolution. Les lieux de réunions sont principalement, au départ, dans des tavernes (une salle privatisée à l'étage) et des coffee-houses à thème, et non dans des pubs, puis dans des lieux résolument privés, spécialement dédiés à cet usage. Certains ont près de trois siècles d'existence, comme le ou le Beefsteak Club et furent pour certains individus des moteurs d'ascension sociale et de lobbyisme. (fr)

  • Med herrklubb avses en exklusiv sammanslutning bestående av enbart män, vilken i regel disponerar egna umgänges- och måltidslokaler för sina medlemmar. Herrklubbarnas ursprung kan dateras till 1600-talets England. Ordet används också i överförd nedsättande bemärkelse om andra sammanhang där män anses dominera och hålla varandra om ryggen. (sv)
  • 紳士俱樂部(又稱紳士會所;英文:gentlemen's club),顧名思義,原為英格蘭上流社會男會員而設,是採用會員制的私人俱樂部(又稱會所),標榜社交、飲食和博弈等吸引力。 然而,時至今日,紳士俱樂部大多已放寬了對會員性別和社會地位的限制。除英國外,其他國家亦有不少著名的紳士俱樂部。 在日本(日語稱紳士クラブ)和美國,「紳士俱樂部」一詞常用作脫衣舞夜總會的委婉代名詞。這種用法在英國亦開始流行起來,聲色場所連鎖店,如和正正以此招徠。 (zh)

  • The circulation of elites in America and the assimilation of new men of power and influence into the upper class takes place primarily through the medium of urban clubdom. Aristocracy of birth is replaced by an aristocracy of ballot. Frederick Lewis Allen showed how this process operated in the case of the nine "Lords of Creation" who were listed in the New York Social Register as of 1905: ‘The nine men who were listed [in the Social Register] were recorded as belonging to 9.4 clubs apiece,’ wrote Allen. ‘Though only two of them, Morgan and Vanderbilt, belonged to the Knickerbocker Club [indeed, both already belonged to old prominent families], Stillman and Harriman joined these two in the membership of the almost equally fashionable Union Club; Baker joined these four in the membership of the Metropolitan Club ; John D. Rockefeller, William Rockefeller, and Rogers, along with Morgan and Baker were listed as members of the Union League Club ; seven of the group belonged to the New York Yacht Club. Morgan belonged to nineteen clubs in all; Vanderbilt, to fifteen; Harriman, to fourteen.’ Allen then goes on to show how the descendants of these financial giants were assimilated into the upper class: ‘By way of footnote, it may be added that although in that year [1905] only two of our ten financiers belonged to the Knickerbocker Club, in 1933 the grandsons of six of them did. The following progress is characteristic: John D. Rockefeller, Union League Club; John D. Rockefeller, Jr., University Club; John D. Rockefeller 3rd, Knickerbocker Club. Thus is the American aristocracy recruited.' (en)
  • The most exclusive social clubs are in the oldest cities – Boston, New York City, Philadelphia, and Washington D.C. Others, which are well respected, have developed in such major cities as Pittsburgh, Chicago, and San Francisco. The most exclusive social clubs are two in New York City – the Links and the Knickerbocker " "Personal wealth has never been the sole basis for attaining membership in exclusive clubs. The individual and family must meet the admissions committee’s standards for values and behavior. Old money prevails over new money as the Rockefeller family experience suggests. John D. Rockefeller, the family founder and the nation’s first billionaire, joined the Union League Club, a fairly respectable but not top-level club; John D. Rockefeller, Jr., belonged to the University Club, a step up from his father; and finally his son John D. Rockefeller, III, reached the pinnacle with his acceptance into the Knickerbocker Club . (en)
