Obtain British Low Culture: From Safari Suits To Sexploitation Drafted By Leon Hunt Mobi

was my favourite decade and this isn't just nostalgia on the part of some embitteredsomething, The class struggle was on the move, w ehad punk rock and, . . err all this great film and TV, No reality cp or celebrity culture, Just in your face gritty social realism and this book is all about it, Brilliant! Essentially a series of academic essays on various aspects of British culture in thes, Topics include the CONFESSIONS series, the sitcom, adult and horror films, and skinhead literature, The author's tone can be dry and jargonheavy at times this is

academic, after all but he displays a keen sense of humour and a real affection for his subject matter which made this an enjoyable read for me.
Identifying 'permissive populism', the trickle down of permissiveness into mass consumption, as a key feature of thes, Leon Hunt considers the values of an ostensibly 'bad' decade and analyses the implications of thes for issues of taste and cultural capital.
Hunt explores how the British cultural landscape of thes coincided with moral panics, the troubled Heath government, the three day week and the fragmentation of British society by nationalism, class conflict, race, gender and sexuality.
