Urban Sociology, Capitalism and Modernity

Abstract: This series, published in conjunction with the British Sociological Association, evaluates and reflects major developments in contemporary sociology. The books focus on key changes in social and economic life in recent years and on the ways in which the discipline of sociology has analysed those changes. They reflect the state of the art in contemporary British sociology, while at the same time drawing upon comparative material to set debates in an international perspective.

“…Student voice pedagogic practice is held to provide an antidote to neoliberal agendas in education and to marketised and managerial forces sweeping through the lifelong learning sector in the UK (Avis, 1999(Avis, , 2002. As a buttress to the consequences of late modernity (Savage and Warde, 1993) and the problems of late capitalism in constructing a 'strain on the self', student voice practice for novice teachers is seen to construct a forum for the exploration of relational agency (Edwards, 2005). Through this article, while aware of the contested nature of notions of 'voice' (Bragg, 2001;Fielding, 2000Fielding, , 2004, I will use 'student voice' to refer to two sets of practices: the capturing of trainee teacher's 'voices' through reflective pedagogic practices and the capturing of younger learners' 'voices' through a series of semi-structured interviews.…”

“…To do this is, though, a highly modernist approach to the problems of the managerial, marketised and post-Fordist (Avis, 1999(Avis, , 2002Salisbury et al, 2009), changes sweeping across the lifelong learning sector in the UK, as elsewhere in other northern European societies. As Savage and Warde (1993) have noted, modernity is itself 'double-edged': on the one hand it promises the 'self' ripe for active development -a personal identity project; and yet, on the other, the need to shape and mould self-identity comes with it risk and anxiety. For Savage and Warde modernity is thus 'disorderly' since it 'obliges individuals to experiment, to hope, to gamble and to be ambitious' (Savage and Warde, 1993: 150).…”

“…Framing community As many have recognised, 'community' is one of sociology's murkier concepts being almost without explanatory force (Wild 1981;Pahl 1973;Savage and Warde 1993). In the mind of many who populate the suburbs of Australia, however, 'community' exists as an obtainable expectation and, in some instances, it seems to be regarded almost as a right of citizenship.…”

“…Los grupos de individuos con afinidades sociales se unen en los mismos espacios de la ciudad, porque vivir en un espacio determinado forma parte también de la adscripción social del individuo (Pino Artacho, 2001). Son múltiples los estudios que muestran la relación entre la estructura socioeconómica y la distribución espacial (Ocaña Ocaña, 1998;Savage y Warde, 1993). En general, el nivel de ingresos es considerado un predictor de la calidad de vida (Marmot, 2004;Wilkinson y Pickett, 2009).…”
