Viac o knihe

The book explores social relationships in two contrasting neighborhoods in Newcastle upon Tyne—one affluent and the other economically deprived. Through five years of ethnographic fieldwork and innovative quantitative methods, it investigates whether deprivation fosters or undermines social solidarity. The analysis delves into the cultural, psychological, and economic impacts of deprivation, addressing the ethical challenges of representing marginalized communities. It offers valuable insights into the interplay of culture and socioeconomic factors in shaping human behavior, making it essential for scholars and policymakers.
