Civilizations 16: Chartism, Reformism, Police Origins, Irish Famine - a podcast by Justin Podur

We investigate Britain around 1848. Why was there no revolution? We look at the Chartist and Reform movements in Britain and in Canada, Robert Peel and the origins of modern policing, Australia and the early debates about how to create misery in prisons, the Irish famines and their repercussions.
