| Abstract | This paper has set itself a number of tasks. The starting point is with Smyth and Simmons' discussion of the affective dispositions of the working class. Rather than exploring the dispositions of members of the working class, the paper examines the attribution of these, not only to the working class but also to other groups. Research addressing the capitalist division of labour in the early years of the twenty's century has illustrated the arbitrariness of this process. This leads into a discussion of the attribution of dispositions and the salience not only of the corporate gaze, but also the white gaze as well as those related to the class, age, race and gender. Research that has addressed aesthetic labour has often attributed 'looking good' and 'sounding right' to people who are assumed to be middle class, the consequence is that an understanding of class as a relation to capital is underplayed as is the resulting politics. A homogenised view of the working class is debilitating and leads to a restrictive understanding of class. Such as stance ignores the re-composition of class relations and the potential for alliances that include members of this putative middle class. An engagement with the affective dispositions of the working class may serve to construct an image of a homogeneous potentially radical class, yet at the same time it serves to exclude constituencies that could play an important role in the struggle for a just society. Such as struggle would presage alliances in the pursuit of a socially just society. (As Provided). |
