Description

This ethnographic study examines how information technologies shape and are shaped by working-class culture in Sheffield, a city undergoing economic transformation in northern England. The authors explore the complex relationship between technology and culture, with particular attention to concepts of work and labour. The research analyses the structure of computing in Sheffield within the broader contexts of national state policy, global political economy, and regional labour markets. By investigating computer-related employment, social relationships, and the reproduction of local culture, this book reveals how technological change intersects with established working-class traditions and identities in a historically vibrant industrial region.
