Why no Revolution in 1848 in Britain

Professor

42:29·2009·introductory level

This session investigates why Britain avoided revolution in 1848, unlike most of Europe, despite social tensions. It attributes this to successful reformist political measures, a non-violent Chartist movement, and the establishment of a British self-identity based on respectability.
