This political history studies the phenomenal growth of the modern
British state's interest in collecting, collating and deploying
population data. It dates this biopolitical data turn in British
politics to the arrival of the Labour government in 1964. It
analyses government's increased desire to know the population, the
impact this has had on British political culture and the
institutions and systems introduced or modified to achieve this. It
probes the political struggles around these initiatives to show
that despite setbacks along the way and regardless of party, all
British governments since the mid-1960s have accepted that data is
the key to modern politics and have pursued it relentlessly.
