Abstract

This editorial explores the ethical and ideological questions involved in dealing with questions of class. It considers questions of perception and representation in relation to class and academic research. Paying particular attention to the specific positionality of the working-class academic it asks if it is possible for academics from working-class backgrounds to have an insight that those academics from more privileged backgrounds might not have access to.
