- Social Class in the 21st century reports the social, economic and cultural analysis of the biggest survey of social class ever conducted in the UK (with 330,000 respondents) supplemented with nearly 100 qualitative interviews, ethnographic vignettes, and documentary sources. Data were analysed using a battery of multivariate methods, including latent class analysis, multiple correspondence analysis, and regression models. The large sample size allowed fine grained analysis using geographical information systems and other mapping methods. Although it was published four years after the data were available, its writing represents about 20 years of core academic labour spread over its nine co-authors.
