This second volume considers various socialist impulses and
developments after the collapse of the Owenite movement in Britain.
Interventions by some leading Christian Socialists will illuminate
one important tendency; publications by O'Brien another less vital
strand. Central to this volume, however, will be far less
well-known pamphlets, book extracts and articles in the periodical
press by national and local co-operative writers and activists, who
appropriated and transformed the legacy of utopian socialism in the
second half of the nineteenth century. Old Owenites are naturally
included, though more emphasis is given to reworkings by a younger
generation of co-operators, now mostly forgotten. The volume will
also cover relationships and controversies between co-operators and
late nineteenth century state socialists, who attempted to portray
the co-operative movement as merely diversionary for the working
class.
