Inequality is an ever-present danger in our society. This important
book addresses the crucial nexus between the lived experience of
inequality and how it shapes political responses. With contributors
from the UK and Continental Europe, the book compiles case studies
with theoretically informed discussions of the relationship between
affective polarisation, social inequality and the fall-out from
Brexit and COVID-19. Using a broad concept of social inequality,
the book incorporates aspects of economy and society, language and
emotion culture as well as interviews and film in historical and
transnational perspective. The contributors offer a powerful
examination of the ways in which the politics of the UK and the
lived experiences of its residents have been reframed in the first
decades of the 21st century.

A distinctive and original analysis of how the politics of the UK
and the lives of British citizens have evolved in the first decades
of the twenty-first century, this book provides an
interdisciplinary critical examination of the roots, ideology and
consequences of austerity politics, the Brexit vote and the rise of
populist politics in Britain. Bringing together case studies and
perspectives from an array of international researchers across the
social sciences, it dissects the ways that the UK has become
increasingly contested with profound differences of geography,
generation, gender, 'race' and class, and considers agency as a key
concept to understand the links between austerity and Brexit.

The theory of the firm and transaction cost analysis provide the
starting point of this institutional study of business co-operation
in the aftermath of World War Two. It is suggested that the market
is an institution which is subject to the visible hand of business.
The aim of business in this process is to control information flows
and reduce uncertainty. Utilising business history case studies, of
the oil industry., the electrical engineering industry and the
grocery retailing trade the book shows how firms aim to create
market governance procedures in order to alter the structure of the
market. The study finds that inter-firm co-operation is central to
understanding the development of markets and that co- operation is
a dynamic process, which responds to changes in market conditions
and government competition policy. The study concludes that firms
are not primarily transaction cost minimisers but are maximisers of
market power. This book will be useful to researchers and students
interested in business management and strategy or industrial
economics
