Labour History Review 89.3

Publication

Liverpool University Press is pleased to inform you of the latest content in LABOUR HISTORY REVIEW, a highly regarded publication that is essential reading for those working in and researching social and political history, and the working lives and politics of 'ordinary' people.

Volume 89.3 features articles that explore Édouard Dolléans’s underrecognized yet pioneering transnational study of Chartism; the enduring myths of betrayal and incompetence stemming from the Labour Party’s 1931 crisis; and Labour’s transformation of social and welfare policies between 1975 and 1997, highlighting the party’s pragmatic adaptation to Thatcherism and the challenges of opposition.

The issue also includes a selection of book reviews and a call for entries to the Labour History Review Essay Prize.
