Sommario/riassunto

Class in the New Millennium paints a fresh and comprehensive picture of social class in Britain today. Anchored in a broad repertoire of methods and pursuing a distinctive theoretical agenda, it not only painstakingly maps the structure, transformation and effects of the UK's key fault lines but goes behind closed doors to see how they play out in everyday family life.
