Excerpt from Ernest Jones and the Chartist Movement: A Thesis These demands seem innocent enough in themselves, and to a large extent have been secured since, but at that time they were a decided innovation. Earnest and conscientious men, like John Stuart Blackie, considered the laboring classes as unfitted for the ballot, and predicted certain and speedy ruin for the country if they should be allowed to vote. Yet if we accept the aims of the Chartists, we still have left the methods by which they sought to secure their demands. That these methods were at least questionable there can be no doubt. Socialistic and even anarchistic schemes were in the air. The movement took on such a sensational aspect that one can not blame the sober-minded Conservatives for viewing it with alarm. This feeling is shared even by those who condemn the existing social, economic and political conditions. For instance, Carlyle in his Past and Present tells how industrial conditions have caused dark millions of God's human creatures to start up in mad. Chartism, and later classes Chartism with trades' unions, trades' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

"Chartism was a Victorian era working class movement for political reform in Britain between 1838 and 1848. It takes its name from the People's Charter of 1838. The term "Chartism" is the umbrella name for numerous loosely coordinated local groups, often named "Working Men's Association," articulating grievances in many cities from 1837. Its peak activity came in 1839, 1842 and 1848. It began among skilled artisans in small shops, such as shoemakers, printers, and tailors. The movement was more aggressive in areas with many distressed handloom workers, such as in Lancashire and the Midlands. It began as a petition movement which tried to mobilize "moral force", but soon attracted men who advocated strikes, General strikes and physical violence, such as Feargus O'Connor and known as "physical force" chartists."--Wikipedia
