Focusing on urban sociology as practised in Britain, the author
argues that it is a key element in the response of the
'intellectual proletariat' to urbanization and the calls on it by
the State to control the ensuing way of life. The themes of urban
sociology have been the concerns of the Welfare State and, despite
radical inputs, the discipline has remained tied up with the
assumptions and methodological precepts of liberalism. The author's
contention is that urbanization should be analysed in the framework
of the political economy of regional development. This book was
first published in 1977.
