Produktinformationen zu „London Politics, 1760-1914 (PDF)“
This collection offers the first detailed investigation of political life in nineteenth-century London. London politics did not share the free-trade and civil-equality preoccupations of the provinces which currently dominate scholarly literature. As these essays reveal, the capital remained more concerned with older struggles for political independence. By highlighting the inability of existing accounts to accommodate metropolitan distinctiveness, the collection aims to stimulate a major reappraisal not of London politics alone, but of Victorian political history more generally.

Pressezitat
'One of the book's attractions is its wide range of political concerns.' - Jerry White, Urban History'...the editors are to be congratulated for putting together a coherent set of essays that make a substantial contribution to the historiography of both popular politics and London. This volume deserves to be widely read, and not just by political historians. Social and cultural historians will find much in this collection that reinforces the image of London as a national and imperial metropolis; as a place of conflict over space, class and religion; and as an arena for anxieties surrounding gender and poverty. Political historians will find rich pickings, especially for the way in which several of the essays problemise popular radicalism, revealing it to be a heterogeneous, even incoherent, political movement.' - Matthew Roberts, Parliamentary History
