Description

This sociological study examines the middle classes as dominant societal groupings through detailed analysis of cultural practices and social behaviour. The book introduces a diverse range of character types within middle-class demographics, including omnivores, carnivores, herbivores, the middle-brow, traditional culture vultures, middle class plunderers, the urban arts eclectic and the English gentleman. With particular attention to those expressing the 'silver disposition'-predominantly affluent, mid-career professionals-the work explores how cultural consumption patterns define class identity and social position. Published by Routledge, this comprehensive examination bridges sociology and cultural studies, offering readers insight into the values, tastes and social hierarchies that structure middle-class life. Essential reading for students and scholars of sociology, cultural studies and social theory seeking to understand class dynamics in contemporary society.
