- This book is the product of research undertaken during a PhD and two Research Fellowships (Uni of Warwick and Birmingham for c. 2 years). The monograph is 330 pages and covers an 80 year period (1930s to the present). The work is grounded on archival analysis of multiple civil liberties and human rights organisations triangulated with state records (police, home office), archives of individual campaigners, and oral histories. It is inter-disciplinary, speaking to literature in law, sociology and political science. Its central thesis required engagement with works from within British historiography and the global history of human rights.
