The Silent Psychology. (Working Class and Social Status)
Author(s)Jensen, Barbara
AbstractA psychologist demonstrates that the working class life can in one sense be considered a colonized culture. She notes that the inner life of the working class is shrouded in meaningful silence and a distinction can be made between the middle/upper classes or professionals who work with symbols rather than things, all people who work with things for a living or the working class and the poor. However, beneath that meaningful shroud of silence is a culture which has a psychology and integrity of its own.
