Socialist Republic is a timely account of 1980s left-wing politics
in South Yorkshire. It explores how Sheffield City Council set out
to renew the British Left. Through careful analysis of the
Council's agenda and how it interacted with trade unions, women's
groups, lesbian and gay rights groups and acted on issues such as
peace, environmentalism, anti-apartheid and anti-racism, the book
draws out the complexities involved in building a broad-based
politics which aimed unite class and identity politics. Running
counter to 1980s narratives dominated by Thatcherism, the book
examines the persistence of social democracy locally, demonstrating
how grassroots local histories can enrich our understanding of
political developments on a national and international level. The
book is essential reading for students, scholars, and activists
with an interest in left-wing politics and history. -- .
