Blue Collar, Theoretically : A Post-Marxist Approach to Working Class Literature Paperback / softback
by John F. Lavelle
Paperback / softback
Description
Though Marxism is the dominant philosophical theory applied to class in academia, its real-life inconsistencies, particularly stereotyping, have troubling effects on working class studies.
As a result of its hegemony, alternative discourses have been effectively shut out of the academic world.
This critical work seeks to establish a new philosophy of class, drawing on disciplines as diverse as sociology, cognitive science, anthropology and psychology and applying a decidedly Weberian hermeneutical lens.
Topics covered include a detailed exploration of Marxism, a review of working class literature, post-marxist theories of class and the future of the field.
