A formative phase in the British labour movement, Chartism has long been a staple feature of labour history. The new century has seen not only a surge of publications, but also the Chartist Ancestors website and the arrival of digitised sources. Joan Allen (University of Newcastle), Owen Ashton (University of Staffordshire), Malcolm Chase (University of Leeds), Mark Crail (Chartist Ancestors), Keith Flett (London Socialist Historians’ Group) and Dorothy Thompson (Worcester) will lead a roundtable discussion. Members and non-members are alike very welcome to join them and participate.
