The social structure of Britain depends on what kind of social class you belong to.

The classification of British society often integrates the following four aspects:

Family background/wealth/occupation/education

Family background/wealth/occupation/education

Then, combined with Wikipedia and other network resources and classroom teaching, I will share with you the specific class classification.

Informal classification of information classification and stereotypes.

1. The lower class-those who are "unemployed for a long time" have been unemployed for generations in many cases.

Typical features are:

? Long-term unemployment, sometimes for generations.

? Living in government housing.

The lower class-refers to people who have been unemployed for a long time, even down and out in previous dynasties, and often live in low-rent houses built in cities.

2. Working class-people's work. Manual workers or skilled industrial workers or businessmen, traditionally in the construction and manufacturing industries.

Typical features are:

No higher education.

? blue-collar job

-Unskilled and semi-skilled jobs in industries, such as factories, mills and mines.

-Technical work, such as individual contractors, construction, pipeline engineering, etc.

? accent

Working class-often refers to manual workers or people engaged in construction and handicrafts. Typical characteristics are low education level and often blue-collar workers. Coal miners, construction workers, lead industry workers and so on. Often have a local accent.

3. Middle class-The middle class in Britain is usually made up of people with higher education, who may have received education in public or private schools.

Middle class-people with higher education. The industry involves accounting, architects, lawyers, surveyors, community service, teachers, managers, professional IT, engineers, doctors, nurses, civil servants and so on. Most of them own real estate, have a certain pursuit of culture and art, and spend part of their income on buying books and going to the theatre.

4. Upper class-Britain's "upper class" is very small statistically, including nobles, gentry and hereditary landlords.

Typical features are:

? Royal family

? Noble class? (genetic? Title, for example? Duke, Earl? And land from the family)

? Landlords in history, their wealth comes from the land.

Values of the upper class; Good social background, good manners and good sppken (RP accent).

Usually received education in a specific public school. Eton

Upper class-a small proportion of the population, usually the royal family. They may have inherited the family title or land, have a good social background and civilized manners, and are a few people who speak standard and pure English pronunciation, and most of them study in schools similar to Eton College.

Two. Formal classification

First refer to the following two eras.

20th century

2 1 century

Next, it focuses on interpreting the results of the BBC survey of local residents in England13 years.

BBC British Laboratory Research (20 13)

(20 13) proposed that class has three dimensions-economy, society and culture:

? Economic capital-income, savings, house value

? Social capital-the number and status of people one knows.

? Cultural capital-the scope and nature of cultural interests and activities.

Hierarchical classification spans three dimensions-economy, society and culture.

Economic capital-income, savings, housing value

Social Capital-the Number and Status of Social Circles

Cultural Capital —— Category and Characteristics of Cultural Interests and Activities

Considering the above three dimensions comprehensively, please sit in the following categories.

The proportion of the above seven classes in society is as follows:

The following figure is a statistical chart of annual income, job type, education level, residence and cultural background.

The biggest revelation of this class is that the British attach importance to socialization and culture. I think this is what we need to learn from. We should train our children to find happiness in art and life from an early age, so as not to lose their way and enthusiasm for life in the increasingly affluent social situation. The cultivation of hobbies is a person's greatest spiritual wealth. When we learn to enjoy loneliness after washing away the lead, we will truly gain happiness and satisfaction.
