摘要

20世纪70年代，英国在就业、福利和住房方面持续存在的歧视与社会民主主义的“机会平等”承诺和备受吹捧的英国价值观“公平竞争”相违背，而工人俱乐部门口的种族主义则讲述了一个不同的故事。对于反动派和自由主义者来说，它反映了英国工业后期工人阶级政治的不确定未来。本文展示了围绕白人工人俱乐部的法律和政治争议如何有助于我们理解“白人工人阶级”作为英国公共生活中的一个政治主题。更重要的是，它揭示了在俱乐部成员中，白人是如何被赋予亲密、亲情、体面和独立的感觉的。

In Defence of White Freedom: Working Men's Clubs and the Politics of Sociability in Late Industrial England.

While ongoing discrimination in jobs, welfare, and housing in 1970s England belied the social democratic promise of 'equality of opportunity' and the much-touted British value of 'fair play', racism at the door of the working men's club told a different story. For reactionaries and liberals alike, it spoke to the uncertain future of working-class politics in late industrial England. This article shows how the legal and political controversies surrounding whites-only working men's clubs contribute to our understanding of the 'white working class' as a political subject in British public life. Even more, it reveals how-among club members-whiteness came to be invested with feelings of intimacy, kinship, respectability, and independence.
