500 In this programme Willis talks about how his interest in
culture and counter culture and its reproduction from the
inside. He discusses his ethnographic research methods,
how he chose his subjects and his relationship with the
notorious "lads". In contrast to the conventional
sociological view of the time that saw the education
system "failing" working class youth, Willis argued that
the lads he observed were deliberately failing themselves
in recognition of the inevitable manual working future
than awaited them. In the final section Paul Willis talks
about the persistence of counter school cultures in
contemporaty societies in spite of the drying up of manual
labouring jobs. He also tells us what happened to the
"lads". This programme will be relevant to those studying
education, stratification, culture and research methods.
