Who Rules Britain?, Paperback / softback Book

Who Rules Britain? Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The lifestyle, economic basis and political affiliations of the British upper class are the focus of this exciting new textbook.

Combining a review of existing sociological theory on class and capitalism with material drawn from a great variety of sources it is likely to become a standard course text.

Examining the question of whether there is still a ruling class in Britain, John Scott presents an account of the historical development of the British upper class, the development of industrial and financial dynasties, town and country society as well as of London and the political world.

Photographs and other illustrations cover subjects as diverse as public school fees, the structure of parliament, and the dates and events of the 'Season'.
