Stories - History - Histories : Impact of Historical Constructions on the British Labour Party

Résumé

While some topics present the researcher with a starkly bare landscape in terms of resources, studying the British Labour party is the opposite. A plethora of data is available for analysis from speeches to manifestos, minutes from governmental meetings etc... Such a mass of information inevitably brings about a certain degree of confusion and frequent contradictions which make providing a consistent definition of the history of the movement extremely delicate. Yet from narratives, testimonies and other documents pointing to various directions has sprung a rather unified and homogeneous interpretation of the party's history. This paper examines this process and its consequences.
