Concept information
Preferred term
Fabian Society
Definition
- WHILE WORKING-CLASS organizations in western Europe, Great Britain, and North America increasingly turned to Marxism in response to growing poverty caused by urbanization and industrialization in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, middle-class reformers focused on legislation to achieve social reform. This was most evident in the establishment of the Fabian Society as a non-Marxist strand of British socialism. [Source: Encyclopedia of World Poverty; Fabian Society]
