Left-Right Position Matters, But Does Social Class? : causal models of the 1992 British general election - Cambridge : Cambride University Press, July 1999
Social class has long been assumed to be predominant social or structural determinant of voting behavior. This article assesses the effect of class on voting behavior at the 1992 general election by adopting the causal modelling perspective developed by Warren E. Miller and J. Merrill Shanks. It explores two mechanisms (party identification and left-rigth ideological positions) wich may imediate the effect of class on voting behaviour. However, it demonstrates that wherever class is assumed to be located in the causal order, it does not dominate analysis of voting behavior and left-right positions
