Abstract
- The article examines how the U.S. Civil War and Reconstruction impacted political reform in Great Britain during the 1860s. It discusses liberalism in British politics, perceived messages about liberty, self-determination, and constitutional government sent from the U.S. to Great Britain, and radicalism in Great Britain. The article also discusses reaction to the U.S. Emancipation Proclamation issued by then-U.S. president Abraham Lincoln and economic conditions in Bradford, Yorkshire.
