What is People's History and Socialist Theory (Routledge Revivals) about?
First published in 1981, this book brings together different types of work by numerous fragmented groups in the field of Marxist history and puts them in dialogue with each other. It takes stock of then recent work, explores the main new lines, and looks at the political and ideological circumstances shaping the direction of historical work, past and present. The scope of the book is international with contributions on African history, fascism and anti-fascism, French labour history, and the transition from feudalism to capitalism. It also incorporates feminist history and gives attention to some of the leading questions raised for social history by the women’s movement. ** Cover 1 Title 4 Copyright 5 Original Title 6 Original Copyright 7 Contents 8 Foreword 14 EDITORIAL PREFACES 17 People’s history 18 History and theory 43 PAPERS 60 PEOPLE’S HISTORY 62 1 People’s history or total history 63 2 The changing image of the Scottish peasantry, 1745-1980 68 3 Worker-historians in the 1920s 74 LOCAL HISTORY 80 4 A ghostly pavement: the political implications of local working-class history 81 5 Beyond autobiography 92 6 The politics of community publications 101 ORAL TRADITION 108 7 The cl
