This major collection of essays challenges many of our
preconceptions about British political and social history from the
late eighteenth century to the present. Inspired by the work of
Gareth Stedman Jones, twelve leading scholars explore both the
long-term structures - social, political and intellectual - of
modern British history, and the forces that have transformed those
structures at key moments. The result is a series of insightful,
original essays presenting new research within a broad historical
context. Subjects covered include the consequences of rapid
demographic change in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries; the
forces shaping transnational networks, especially those between
Britain and its empire; and the recurrent problem of how we connect
cultural politics to social change. An introductory essay situates
Stedman Jones's work within the broader historiographical trends of
the past thirty years, drawing important conclusions about new
directions for scholarship in the twenty-first century.
