本文属于社会学研究，探讨英国社会流动性的主观体验和情感后果。它增加了最近研究日常文化实践在理解向上流动之旅中的作用的尝试。本文借鉴了这些理论进展，并使用从大众观察档案馆收集的定性数据 (N = 24) 将其应用于日常赌博行为的案例研究。这篇文章是研究社会流动性与赌博之间联系的首次尝试之一。它借鉴了社会学研究，探索社会流动性的文化和经济基础，并将其与研究赌博和阶级之间的相互关系联系起来。通过这样做，它的目的是提出一种新颖的理论方法来研究赌博作为日常消费者行为；它可以与更广泛的文化和结构性阶级不平等一起理解。
This article is located within sociological research exploring the subjective experiences and emotional consequences of social mobility in the UK. It adds to recent attempts to examine the role of everyday cultural practices in making sense of journeys of upward mobility. The article draws on these theoretical advancements and applies them to a case study of everyday gambling practices using qualitative data (N = 24) collected from the Mass Observation Archive. The article represents one of the first attempts to examine the connections between social mobility and gambling. It draws on sociological research that explores the cultural as well as the economic underpinnings of social mobility and connects this to research examining the inter-relationships between gambling and class. By doing so, it aims to present a novel theoretical approach to the study of gambling as everyday consumer practice; one which can be understood alongside broader cultural and structural inequalities of class.
