Above reminds of Seymour Martin Lipset's 'working class authoritarianism'
in _Political Man (1960) that S. M. Miller & Frank Reisman thoroughly
critiqued in *British Journal of Sociology* in early 1960s.  Lewis Lipsitz
did same in *American Sociological Review* in mid-1960s.

Richard Hamilton's decidedly non-marxist _Class and Politics in the United 
States_ (1972) notes that Joe McCarthy's electoral support did not come 
from working class.   Michael Hoover
