      abstract = {The key concepts of the book are media, class, poverty,  and shaming. The contributors to this book examine how  certain social relations and their cultural meanings in the  media, namely class and poverty, are transformed into  factual or moral attributes of people and situations. Class  and poverty are not understood as certain things and  actions, or concepts and numbers; both class and poverty  are assumed to be, above all, particular social  relationships or a set of relations between people, things  and symbols. Without denying that contempt for the  destitute Other is an affect found throughout history and  in various socioeconomic contexts, the chapters in this  book through their concern with the mediated gaze on class  narrate predominantly the challenges brought about by the  medias spectacular take on poverty and low status as they  (at least) coincide with the neoliberal era. This volume  will be essential reading for the scholars specialising in  the study of media and social inequalities form the vantage  points of Media Studies, Sociology, Anthropology or  European Studies.},
