“Workers, Master Workers, Unworkers”: Carlyle and Southey — The Saint-Simonians and Industrial Feudalism by Jude V. Nixon

“…Cet article prend en compte l’essai critique de Southey, Letters from England, ainsi que Sir Thomas More, or Colloquies on the Progress of Society, et les met en relation avec “Signs of the Times,” “Chartism,” Past and Present de Carlyle, ainsi qu’avec la correspondance de ce dernier, et décrit brièvement les relations d’amitié entre les deux hommes, notamment la façon dont leurs échanges sur les Saint-Simoniens se rejoignaient autour d’une théorie médiévale et féodale du travail. Leurs idées modelèrent la politique d’anti-républicains tels que Lord John Manners, membre des Young Englanders conservateurs, lesquels considéraient que l’organisation féodale des ouvriers constituait la réponse aux déplacements qui leur étaient de plus en plus souvent imposés dans l’Angleterre industrielle, les privant de leur droit électoral. …”
