- Authors

- Abstract
Questions a traditional view of labour-aristocracy values during the mid-Victorian decades. Existence and importance of an aristocracy labor; Middle-class view of the stratum; Debate surrounding the Reform Bill of 1867; Argument that the process of ideological hegemony by which the mid-Victorian ruling elite successfully contained a section of the working class was far more subtle and ambiguous process than would be allowed by the orthodoxy of a labor-aristocracy being indoctrinated with middle-class values and ideals.
