Preston and Firth examine how plans for quarantine and social isolation systematically work against the needs of the working class, and rely on classed assumptions about how markets and altruism operate. In the face of neoliberal methods of dealing with a pandemic, ranging from marketization, disaster capitalism, to a strengthening of the State, Coronavirus, Class and Mutual Aid in the UK explains how radical alternatives such as social movements and mutual aid can be implemented to better cope with current and future crises. 000959024 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on January 15, 2021). 000959024 650_0 $$aCOVID-19 (Disease)$$xPolitical aspects$$zGreat Britain. 000959024 650_0 $$aWorking class$$zGreat Britain$$xSocial conditions. 000959024 650_0 $$aEquality$$zGreat Britain. 000959024 7001_ $$aFirth, Rhiannon,$$d1980-$$eauthor. 000959024 77608 $$iPrint version: Preston, John.$$tCoronavirus, class and mutual aid in the United Kingdom.$$dBasingstoke : Palgrave Macmillan, 2020$$z9783030577131$$w(OCoLC)1197812998 000959024 852__ $$bebk 000959024 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-57714-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000959024 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:959024$$pGLOBAL_SET 000959024 980__ $$aEBOOK 000959024 980__ $$aBIB 000959024 982__ $$aEbook 000959024 983__ $$aOnline 000959024 994__ $$a92$$bISE
