DESCRIPTION:From one perspective snobbery seems slightly quaint\, certain
 ly old-fashioned and somewhat marginal to contemporary concerns. Yet\, a
  quick look at a week's newspapers would indicate that it is still a liv
 e issue and that we seem to be confronted with a proliferation of snobbe
 ries.  Snobbery has clearly changed in character over the centuries but 
 it still matters.  It matters to individuals\, especially those who may 
 be at the receiving end and it matters more generally because it still h
 as a role in current social dramas such as Brexit and the election of Do
 nald Trump.  Sociologists should\, therefore\, take it seriously.\n \nTh
 e talk is based upon 'Snobbery' published this year by Policy Press. Dav
 id Morgan is now an Emeritus Professor at Manchester\, having previous t
 aught there for around 37 years. Before being seduced by snobbery he was
  interested in family studies\, men and masculinities and acquaintancesh
 ip.\n\nTea and coffee from 1.45pm\, seminar starts at 2pm. \n
