When a society becomes more affluent, does it lose other values? Are the skills that education and literacy gave millions wasted on consuming pop culture? When Richard Hoggart asked these questions in his 1957 book The Uses of Literacy , Britain was undergoing huge social change, yet his landmark work has lost none of its pertinence today.
