      abstract = {"In this groundbreaking investigation, Owen Jones explores  how the working class has gone from 'salt of the earth' to  'scum of the earth'. Moving through Westminster 's lobbies  and working-class communities from Dagenham to Dewsbury  Moor, Jones lays bare the ignorance and prejudice at the  heart of the chav caricature, and reveals a far more  complex reality: the increasing poverty and desperation of  people left abandoned by the aspirational,  society-fragmenting policies of both the Tories and the New  Labour. A damning indictment of the media and political  establishment, Chavs is an illuminating, disturbing  portrait of inequality and class hatred in modern  Britain."--P. [4] of cover.},
