| 520 | |a In this, the second of the Affluent Worker monographs, the authors report on the voting and the political attitudes of a sample of highly-paid manual workers. As in the first book -on industrial attitudes and behaviour -the affluent workers studied are employees of three major industrial concerns in Luton, a town which benefited faster and more consistently than almost any other in Britain from the economic progress of the 'fifties and ealy 'sixties. The sample was chosen as a 'critical" case to test some widely accepted views on the assimilation of the working classes into patterns of middle class social life. On the basis of material form interviews, the authors five a detailed account of the workers' party attachments and political orientations, and this is followed by an analysis of voting in relationship to income, house-ownership, social origin, and trade union membership. The main findings of the research -that, despite their affluence, the great majority of these workers remain staunch supporters of the Labour Party -runs counter to general beliefs about working class embourgeoisement. In a concluding chapter, the authors discuss the results of their investigation in the context of changes from a more 'traditional' to a more 'privatised' style of working class life. | ||
