    Radical journalist James O'Brien was born in County Longford, Ireland and educated at a progressive school in Lovell Edgeworth and Trinity College, Dublin. After studying law at King's Inns, he removed to England where he was soon drawn into the world of politics. He joined the Radical Reform Association and met the leading radicals of the day, Henry Hunt and William Cobbett. Under the pseudonym Bronterre, he began contributing articles to the Poor Man's Guardian, a popular radical newspaper edited by Henry Hetherington.

    Introduction: History as Innovation: The Work of Iain McCalman
    (Taylor and Francis - Balkema, 2016-01-01) Pickering, Paul A.
    The Mob is an abbreviation of the Latin mobile vulgus, meaning excitable crowd’, and by the late eighteenth century the term had become invariably associated with the lower classes and the emerging working class. When the London Corresponding Society (LCS) first appeared, some Londoners would have held vivid memories and lingering fears of the disorderly crowd action in 1780 known as the Gordon Riots. To make the LCS analogous to the mob was much more than hollow name-calling. One can understand the mob club’ portrait and similar representations of reformers as part of a cathartic process. Sociologists have devoted much attention to social polarisation and the construction of deviance, the forces and processes that divide society into the moral and amoral, the civilised and uncivilised, the respectable and unrespectable. The democratic structures of the LCS provided the organisation with organic management, but it also had a normative capacity.
