Klappentext zu „Challenging Alienation in the British Working-Class “
This book explores the possibility of alienation amongst the British working-class and argues that the class is, in fact, alienated. Its point of departure is the right-communitarians, who outline how the working class has become alienated as a result of a loss of its political agency, the breakdown of its communities, and the undermining of its dignity. However, where these scholars tend to propose solutions from a right-communitarian perspective, this book adopts a more inclusive, left-wing, position to address working-class concerns.

His thesis, titled Building a Community of Equals: Challenging Alienation in the British Working-Class presented a challenge to the prominent right-communitarian discourse on working-class issues and advocated for a Progressive Nationalism rooted in the ideas articulated by the Bristol School of Multiculturalism.
