Tooley's study of the working-class Canongate community in Edinburgh's Old Town as they negotiate gentrification plans offers a complex view of class and nation. Tenement Nation looks at these negotiations between socioeconomic classes and even nationalities to show what Tooley calls a "working-class cosmopolitanism" in pursuit of social, economic, and political inclusion.
