Popular Politics in Nineteenth Century Englandis an accessible introduction to the culture of English popular politics between 1815 and 1900, the period from Luddism to the New Liberalism. Attracting great historical interest, study of this period has undergone fundamental revision in the last two decades. Bringing the debate up-to-date, Rohan McWilliams assesses popular ideology in relation to the state, the nation, gender and the nature of party formation, and reveals a much richer social history emerging in the light of recent historiographical developments.
