{"product_id":"1848-john-saville-9780521396561","title":"1848: The British State and the Chartist Movement","description":"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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Saville\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521396565\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521396561\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/31\/1990\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.03h x 6.04w x 0.82d","brand":"John Saville","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946719314175,"sku":"9780521396561","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_3a5d12e4-b4ec-4e3c-874b-382469bce190.jpg?v=1681514745","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/1848-john-saville-9780521396561","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
