Paperback. Zustand: Fair. In modern Britain, the working class has become an object of fear and ridicule. From Little Britain's Vicky Pollard to the demonization of Jade Goody, media and politicians alike dismiss as feckless, criminalized and ignorant a vast, underprivileged swathe of society whose members have become stereotyped by one, hate-filled word: chavs.In this acclaimed investigation, Owen Jones explores how the working class has gone from "salt of the earth" to "scum of the earth." Exposing the ignorance and prejudice at the heart of the chav caricature, he portrays a far more complex reality. The chav stereotype, he argues, is used by governments as a convenient fig leaf to avoid genuine engagement with social and economic problems and to justify widening inequality.When Chavs was first published in 2011 it opened up the discussion of class in Britain. Then, in the public debate after the riots of that summer, Owen Jones's thesis was proved right-the working class were the scapegoats for everything that was wrong with Britain.This new edition includes a new chapter, reflecting on the overwhelming response to the book and the situation in Britain today. A readable copy of the book which may include some defects such as highlighting and notes. Cover and pages may be creased and show discolouration.…

Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Gebrauchsspuren; Leichte Verformung / umgeknickte Seiten; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveränderung. In modern Britain, the working class is often viewed with fear and ridicule, exemplified by media portrayals like Little Britain's Vicky Pollard and the demonization of Jade Goody. This demographic is frequently labeled as feckless and criminalized, reduced to the derogatory term "chavs." In a groundbreaking investigation, Owen Jones delves into the transformation of the working class from being seen as the "salt of the earth" to the "scum of the earth." He exposes the ignorance and prejudice behind the chav stereotype, which stems from the media's fixation on a marginalized white underclass. Through his exploration of Westminster and communities from Dagenham to Dewsbury Moor, Jones highlights the escalating poverty and desperation resulting from significant social and industrial changes, compounded by the neglect of policies from Thatcherism and New Labour. He argues that the chav stereotype serves as a convenient excuse for governments to evade genuine engagement with pressing social and economic issues, thereby justifying increasing inequality. Drawing on original research and interviews with media figures, political influencers, and workers, this work critiques the media and political establishment while providing a disturbing portrait of inequality and class hatred in contemporary Britain.…
