This is a detailed study of the workings of the various parts of
the British state in their confrontation with the radical movements
of Chartism and Irish nationalism. The year 1848 was notable,
first, for the immense influence of the French revolution of
February upon the whole of Britain and, second, for the decisive
defeats suffered by the radical movements. Professor Saville's
analysis is based upon government and municipal archives,
newspapers and contemporary writings, and proceeds chronologically
from January to late summer, when mass arrests ended the insurgent
movements on both sides of the Irish Channel. A further chapter
looks at length at the workings of the legal system, and the volume
concludes with a general commentary on the political consequences
of the decline of Chartism which followed the defeats of 1848.
