Description
Why has Robert Owen continued to occupy the attention of historians in the twentieth century? What changing significance has been seen in his work? What was his relationship with the great social and political movements of his age? To what extent was the Owenite 'message' of importance outside Great Britain? These and other questions are taken up in this study.
