“…43 Historians have long extended their field of vision in their desire to explain away the absence of revolutionary worker action through the supposed 'cultures of consolation' offered by the mass market. 44 The alltagsgeschichte project, led by Alf Lü dtke, has examined 'everyday, ordinary people' to explore, in Engel's phrase, 'the production and reproduction of real life'. 45 Here, the everyday does not have to stand in for something ideological or for confrontation by other means.…”

“…Dalam konteks Inggris, kesadaran kelas (class consciousness) menjadi faktor penting dalam pembentukan karakter kelas sosial dan asosiasi kultural yang melekat pada kelas tersebut (Thompson 1991). Jones (1974) secara kritis menggambarkan bagaimana polarisasi kultural ini terbentuk dan direproduksi dalam kehidupan keseharian masyarakat Inggris di abad 19. Jones menjelaskan bahwa didorong oleh nilai-nilai efisiensi, para pemilik modal dan pekerja berkeahlian (skilled-labour) yang pro terhadap tatanan industri dan pasar bebas berupaya mematahkan gerakan Chartisme, yakni gerakan di paruh pertama 1800-an yang di dalamnya terdapat beberapa tuntutan untuk kesejahteraan dan kesetaraan politik bagi para pekerja.…”

“…Melalui wacana demonisasi pekerja yang dianggap tidak beradab, tidak teratur, tidak berpendidikan dan harus didisiplinkan, mereka berafiliasi dengan gereja dan Partai Konservatif untuk mendisiplinkan para pekerja melalui sistem gaji dan bantuan sukarela (charity). Menyadari bahwa represi kultural sebagai bagian dari dominasi ekonomi-politik pemilik modal dan kelas menengah, para pekerja ini menolak dan cenderung eksklusif dan membentuk karakter pekerja sesuai dengan imajinasi mereka sendiri melalui sosialisasi sehari-hari di pemukiman, pub, ruang-ruang konser musik, stadion sepakbola, dan arena perlombaan hewan seperti aduan ayam dan burung merpati (Jones 1974, Baker 1979. Gaya hidup, diskursus, dan imajinasi utopis tentang kelas mereka di bentuk di ruang-ruang tersebut dan dari situlah kesadaran sebagai kelas yang kalah dalam laju industri direproduksi (Thompson 1991).…”

This paper looks at the phenomena of urban regeneration that has been happening after de-industrialization within the British political-historical context. Since the 1970s economic turbulence, under the Thatcher Conservative Regime, Britain experiences political-economic transformation that hegemonically restores its society through the implementation of market economic principles and the public policy control to reduce state roles in the welfare distribution process. One of the strategies is by reordering industrial cities through the urban regeneratiopool, Britain, this paper aims to trace socio-political aspects driving the urban regeneration andn project considered as the deprived ones whilst still have economic potentials for the future capital accumulation. Drawing on an ethnographic research carried out in the summer 2014 in Liver its cultural implication to whom particularly categorised as the urban working class. Anthropological analysis is carried out by conforming dialectically information on the field and theories regarding on the informant and researcher cultural background to avoid bias result. The result shows that urban regeneration is the continuity of class struggle which embedded in the British cultural and political history. Furthermore, cultural-political factors which are inherited by the Thatcher Conservative regime in urban regeneration policies are very dominant affecting on the weakening of the urban working class existence in the British post industrial era.

“…Simplistic ideas of the halls as an exclusively working-class institution have been replaced by an acute appreciation of both local variation, and of change over time which brought increasing numbers of the middle classes into the halls from the late nineteenth century (Hoher 1986). Far from being politically benign, the halls are now viewed as an important site for the production of a Tory Populism (Stedman Jones 1974;Waters 1986;Russell 1987) and, although not all writers concur here, powerful currents of popular imperialism (Summerfield 1986;Russell 1992). Contemporary campaigns against supposed sexual impropriety in the halls, previously often dismissed as the work of 'prudes on the prowl', have been usefully placed in the context of late Victorian debates about womens' social role (Aston 1988; Davis 1991).…”

During the coffee break at a recent conference, I described myself to a new acquaintance as ‘a social historian of music’. He replied that he was glad to meet me as he now knew all four of us. The ‘club’, of course, has never been quite that exclusive, but the joke highlighted the essentially submerged and inchoate nature of work in this field. What follows is a decidedly personal article, designed not as a polished, final argument but as a review of some recent developments within the social history of popular music and as a stimulus to further work and argument. Aimed most particularly at those, whether they define themselves as musicologists or historians, taking relatively early steps into this field, it reflects the biases and preoccupations of a social historian with decidedly Anglo-centric interests and for whom history tends to ‘begin’ about 1750; I have a sense, however, that some of my comments may be relevant to the study both in and of other countries and of other historical periods. ‘Popular’ music is broadly defined here to accommodate both ‘aesthetic’ and ‘social’ usages of the term, but given my particular interests, and perhaps because of the methodological imperatives of social history, the latter application undoubtedly receives the closest attention.
