Britain and Latin America in the 19th and 20th Centuries

Britain and Latin America in the 19th and 20th Centuries

The first full-length survey of Britain's role in Latin America as a whole from the early 1800s to the 1950s when influence in the region passed to the United States. Rory Miller examines the reasons for the rise and decline of British influence and reappraises its impact on the Latin American states. Did it as often claimed circumscribe their political autonomy and inhibit their economic development? This sustained case study of imperialism and dependency will have an interest beyond Latin American specialists alone. | Britain and Latin America in the 19th and 20th Centuries

Work and Unemployment 1834-1911

Work and Unemployment 1834-1911

This four-volume collection explores the idea that for Victorians and Edwardians the meanings attached to work and the meanings attached to being without work were always dependent upon each other knotted together by the imperative for a man to desire employment and be willing to work. Mechanization and the decline of old trades the creation of single-industry cities and towns the migration of agricultural labourers from the countryside to these cities and to London the intensification of the sweated industries and the displacement of the labour of adult men by the labour of women and adolescent boys all contributed to urgent conversations about the relationships between work and unemployment and are examined through primary sources. Accompanied by extensive editorial commentary this collection will be of great interest to students of British History. | Work and Unemployment 1834-1911
