Starting with an unusual, 'revivalist' phase in the history of socialism in the late 1880s and early 1890s, this book goes on to explore the distinctive character of socialism in English history more widely understood. The book characterises 'the three socialisms' associationism, statism and collectivism, establishing their presence in the social history of socialism in Britain and elsewhere.
"Stephen Yeo ... - 'a seasoned campaigner, one-time Labour-candidate, radical Marxist intellectual, Principal of Ruskin College, and Chair of the Cooperative Heritage Trust...offers boundless food for thought'." - Edward Royle, Labour History Review
