Moving histories of class and community: identity, place and belonging in contemporary England
Rogaly, Ben
Taylor, Becky
A major new study of white working class Britain since 1930, that shows how meanings of poverty have changed over time and how individuals reject categorization by the state. This book challenges accepted wisdom on the white working class, providing new understandings of community, place and class, arguing forthe importance of migration. BEN ROGALY teaches in the Department of Geography, University of Sussex, UK. BECKY TAYLOR is Lecturer in History at Birkbeck College, University of London, UK.
