Letters on Liberty – Pubs: Defending the Free House
£2.00
Neil Davenport, sociology teacher and critic, challenges us to stand up for the pub. Today, society tends to view people getting close to one another as a source of multiple risks, he writes, and if pubs are to survive, we need to get up close and personal. From plotting working-class political movements to hosting some of the great artists of our time, pubs are central to a lively, active public square. The future of rowdy locals relies on us, the punters, rediscovering and reshaping the public square as a place of freedom, he writes. We should not be ready to heed last orders so easily.
