Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the evolution of the White Thread Movement, a 19th-century English working-class social movement that arose from a need for association in the wake of industrialization. As a peaceful, non-political pressure group that blended ritualism, symbolism, and an ethical code, the White Thread benefited its members through shared rituals and mutual aid. Drawing on extensive archival research, the author explores the origins, development, and ultimate decline of the White Thread, uncovering its relevance to issues of class, community, and social change in the face of 19th-century England's rapidly transforming economy and social fabric. The book sheds new light on an underappreciated yet fascinating chapter in labor history, ultimately demonstrating the enduring relevance of the values and practices the White Thread exemplified.
