内容説明・目次
内容説明
In 1972, Bryson published a study of an outer Melbourne suburb. In this text, Bryson and a co-author have revisited Newtown and provide a picture of change and continuity in suburban living anchored in qualitative and quantitative data. This is set against a historical discussion of inequality in Australia from federation to the end of the 20th century. The authors explore a range of contemporary issues in social policy and sociology. They explore the impact of economic, social and political trends over the past 30 years in key areas like employment, income and housing. Demonstrating the changes which have occurred in Australian society, the book shows the profound effect of economic restructuring, the rise of economic rationalism, the growth of unemployment and increasing income inequality on the lives of residents of the working class suburbs of Australia.
