Nicholas Draper utilizes the Commission’s untapped records to construct what amounts to a forensic prosaopography, endeavoring to “locate the accountability for slavery more precisely” than has been possible to date. This essay locates compensation in relation to other public policies of the period associated with the rise of what George Soros has called “free market fundamentalism. The New Poor Law’s role in the criminalization of poverty is widely acknowledged. So too was the emergent gospel of free trade strengthened by the British State’s “disciplined” response to the Irish famine. Slave owner compensation also performed important ideological labor. It not only stripped abolition of any semblance of apology, it also shielded private profiteering from public or political scrutiny, emancipating the pursuit of material self-interest from any moral fetters. Thus did mammon assert its priority over humanity and religion, even if not especially in slavery’s aftermath.}, Doi = {10.1215/07990537-1548155}, Key = {fds295716} } @article{fds295715, Author = {Thorne, S}, Title = {Feminism and empire: women activists in imperial Britain, 1790–1865 - By Clare Midgley.

Using the trajectory of Gareth Stedman Jones’s work as a basis for discussion, the authors compare the treatment of politics within both linguistic and social historical frameworks. They argue that the privileging of discourse or language in the work of Stedman Jones and others paradoxically undermines their revisionist aim to restore ’the political’ from the socio-economic reductionisms of earlier historical enquiry. It will be suggested that the revisionists’ substitution of language for social position as the ’prefigurative’ and ’nonreferential’ source of subjective identity and political affiliation effectively precludes the possibility of politics understood as a contingent and negotiated process. To the contrary, it is precisely the referential and metaphorical character of language properly understood which both enables and constrains that human agency on which political mobilization depends.}, Key = {fds295710} } @article{fds295695, Author = {Thorne, S}, Title = {Review of Conversion and Social Equality in India.

Few historians who work on the nineteenth century today would object to G. Kitson Clark's revisionist insistence in 1962 that ‘in no other century, except the seventeenth and perhaps the twelfth, did the claims of religion occupy so large a part of the nation's life, or did men speaking in the name of religion contrive to exercise so much power’. While contemporaries were alarmed that ‘only’ half of Britain's adult population attended church or chapel services on a regular basis, this far exceeded the social catchments of all other institutions in Victorian political culture. Moreover, most of the adults who were not regular churchgoers had probably been exposed to organised religion as children. Virtually every working-class child attended Britain's massively popular Sunday Schools at one point or another.Victorian religious practice was, furthermore, a very public and political praxis. In fact, Victorian public opinion was ‘educated from the pulpit’. This does not mean that religious Victorians spoke with a unified political voice. To the contrary, theological and sectarian differences were among the most important fault lines informing the nation's party political divide. While Nonconformists were nearly unanimous in their support for the Liberal Party, at least before 1886, Anglicans were as ardent if not quite as unified in their support for the Conservative Party.}, Doi = {10.1017/CBO9780511802263.007}, Key = {fds295694} } @misc{fds50871, Author = {S.
