This extremely valuable collection explores the development of new working-class studies in academe. The essays highlight these studies at the intersection of different academic fields; within disciplinary perspectives on the working class; among representations of the working class in poetry, literature, film, and music; and as reflected in the relationship between social class, politics, and education. Highly recommended.
