Reviews

Reviews of the first publication: “A bold and original interpretation of labour history over the past two hundred years, which challenges much of the received wisdom of previous historians, both Left and Right. It is a most important new approach to the history of industrial relations and labour politics in Britain.” — J. F. C. Harrison, University of Sussex ‘It will deservedly figure prominently in the reading lists of all labour and political history courses in years to come.’ — Social History Society Newsletter

Author Information

Richard Price has written six books and many articles and essays on modern British social history and the history of the British Empire.

His writings on British labour history explored how social relations in the industrial workplace shaped the presence of organized Labour in society. Similarly, his work on the settler colonies of South Africa, Australia and New Zealand explored how their histories were shaped by the encounter between imperial forces and Indigenous peoples. He is Emeritus Professor of History at the University of Maryland, College Park.
