I guess you could call most British cultural studies, the Birmingham school and its forebears and affiliates, working class studies, and that's a body of work I have a lot of familiarity with and affinity for. I do still feel there is something about class as a mode of analysis that makes 'class theory' as analogous with 'gender theory' or 'race theory' feel off-kilter. It may just be that thinking about class is so inseparable from thinking with/in a Marxist mode, for me.
