Houtman, Dick

Farewell to the leftist working class / Dick Houtman, Peter Achterberg and Anton Derks - New Brunswick : Transaction Publishers, 2008 - vii, 144 p. 23cm.

The authors have a strangely Marxist analysis of voting behaviour, according to which workers should vote for leftist parties which support redistribution, while middle class groups should vote for right-wingers who oppose it. However, the only explanation the authors offer for authoritarian cultural values is lack of cultural capital, in plain English that workers are thick.
