Diversity, Rights And Equality In Britain, 1914-2010
Muhtasari
In 1914 no woman in Britain could vote in a general election, a disabled person had no legal protection in employment, and a man could be imprisoned for a consensual relationship with another man. By 2010 a single Act of Parliament protected people from discrimination on nine different grounds at once. The distance travelled is enormous, and the way it was travelled is the interesting part.
This is a breadth study, so the marks are in the pattern. Change came in bursts, usually after wars, usually after sustained pressure from people with no formal power, and usually well behind the point at which campaigners had first asked. Some of the arguments in this topic, particularly about immigration and about race relations, are still live political disputes; handle them as a historian, setting out positions accurately and attributing contested claims rather than assuming your reader shares your view.
