Tim Strangleman is Professor of Sociology at the University of
Kent, Canterbury, and past president of the Working Class Studies
Association. He has researched and written on a wide range of
workplaces and industries, examining work culture, attachment, and
loss. He is the author of a number of books and articles about
employment, deindustrialization, and nostalgia. He is also an oral
historian who also uses visual methods and approaches along
with
archival materials.
"At a time of growing class polarization, Voices of Guinness demands our attention. Tim Strangleman invites us into the working lives and shopfloor memories of former industrial workers, confirming his place as a leading light in the study of work and its loss. This is oral history at its very best!" -- Steven High, Journal of Working-Class Studies
