Reviews

'Meier has made important theoretical and methodological contributions to an emerging concern with the affectivities of class and deindustrialisation, a project that will be further advanced by attending to the affective political processes of class. Working Class Experiences of Social Inequalities in (Post-)Industrial Landscapes will be foundational to both researchers and undergraduate programmes engaging with this project.' - Jay Emery, Critical Sociology
