<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p><em>Considering Class</em> shows why the process of reconstructing class consciousness must take place on the terrain of cultural and subjective formation where everyday values, habits and media practices are in play.</p> <p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>Considering Class: Theory, Culture and Media in the 21st Century</em> offers the reader international and interdisciplinary perspectives on the importance of class analysis in the 21st century. Political economists, sociologists, educationalists, ethnographers, cultural and media analysts have contributed to this volume to provide a multi-dimensional account of current class dynamics. The crisis consists precisely in the gap between the objective reality and efficacy of class forces shaping international politics and the relative paucity of class consciousness at a popular level and appreciation of class as an explanatory optic at a theoretical level. This important book shows why the process of reconstructing class consciousness must also take place on the ground of cultural and subjective formation where everyday values, habits and media practices are in play.</p><p>Contributors are: Anita Biressi, Joseph Choonara, Maurizio Donato, Danny Dorling, Mark Gibson, Craig Haslop, Dave Hill, Peter Jakobsson, Marina Kabat, Holly Lewis, Catherine Lumby, Lisa Mckenzie, Tony Moore, Adrian Murray, Deirdre O'Neill, Jonathan Pratschke, Michael Seltzer, Eduardo Sartelli, Fredrik Stiernstedt, Roberto Taddeo, Mike Wayne, Milly Williamson, Ferruh Yılmaz.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Deirdre O'Neill</strong> is a working class lecturer and filmmaker.
