Financial Expertise, Authority and Power in the European Football 'Industry
The paper aims to provoke discussion about two issues. Firstly, how do economic ideas, concepts, theories, principles and information enter into the discourse of the owners and controllers of Europe’s most popular sport – football – and into political discussion about the game? It stresses the role management consultants have created for themselves in the new football 'industry'. Secondly, as a specific example of the general concern, the paper c…

Football Hooligans: Old Bottle, New Whines
This paper reviews the claims about the explanation of violence around football put forward by Armstrong and Harris in the light of more widespread faults in the analysis of 'hooliganism'. It argues that conceptual, definitional and methodological problems mean that the data Armstrong and Harris supply should not cause anyone to abandon either of the two theoretical positions they think they criticize. In particular their dismissal of the moral p…
Models of Work, Models of Leisure
The social analysis of 'leisure' is not well developed. In part this reflects the area's marginal status for sociology and Marxism, but this underdevelopment is also due to the failure of those who have been busy in the field to break out. Rather they seem to have been content to clear their own ground and map out the terrain, creating a fraternity of 'leisure studies'.1 Recently, this contented community has been blasted by loud criticisms.2 Van…

Professional Football and Working Class Culture: English Theories and Scottish Evidence
This paper reviews certain theories outlined by Taylor, Clarke, Critcher, Dunning et al which try to set out the relations between professional football and working class culture and which, as part of this, seek to explain football hooliganism as resulting from changes in these relationships. Such theories draw on English evidence and English forms and this paper provides some historical and contemporary evidence, concerning hooliganism and commu…
American Automobiles and Workers' Dreams
This paper reviews Chinoy's Automobile Workers and the American Dream as an example of a lot of work which revolves around themes of alienation, worker degradation and quiescence. Two aspects of the automobile as an item in the sphere of consumption in post-war America are then detailed to try to point to the theoretical assumptions and empirical absences which characterize the dominant tradition exemplified by Chinoy's classic text. The paper en…

Attitudes to Class and Class Relationships in Britain
This paper reviews a number of recent conceptual statements and empirical studies concerning British workers attitudes to class and class relationships. It then presents some evidence from a survey in Barking, London, in 1972-73, a feature of which is a comparison of the responses of the same people to the same questions at dates some months apart. On the basis of this evidence some points are made concerning the nature and prevalence of consciou…

Lower Class Attitudes towards the British Political System
Lower Class Attitudes to Property: Aspects of the Counter-Ideology
This paper discusses recent speculation concerning the normative bond which ties the lower class to the present structure of British society. It focuses on the assertions by some theorists that the normative opposition which can arise 'spontaneously' within the lower class is inherently limited in scope, and that any future class based movements of a radical kind depend on the action of agencies 'external' to the lower class. Some preliminary res…
The Political Incorporation of the British Working Class: An Interpretation
This paper challenges the type of interpretation of the successful political incorporation of the British working class in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries which stresses normative factors-'deference', craving for respectability, bourgeoisification, religious feelings etc. It corrects misleading statements in some of these accounts and uses historical evidence to stress the importance of objective, structural constraints on working cl…
