CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history
The Labour Research Department had its initial origins in the Fabian
Society’s Enquiry into the Control of Industry Committee founded in 1912. In
1913 the Committee took on the form of the Fabian Research Department led
by figures including Beatrice and Sidney Webb, George Bernard Shaw and
Robin Page Arnot.
Originally the department took the form of a forum for competing theories of
industrial organisation but then took on the function of providing a service for
trade unions by collecting information for them rather than about them and in
1918 its membership was broadened outside of the Fabian Society and
became the Labour Research Department.
Many influential figures were involved in the Labour Research Department
including Barbara Drake, Joseph Rowntree, Leonard Woolf, Archibald Fenner
Brockway, Emile Burns, Harry Politt and Noreen Branson.
The Labour Research Department carried out investigations into many of the
major issues affecting Britain and the wider world, including women, trade
unions and strikes, imperialism, the rise of Fascism and the outbreak of war,
housing, racism and education. The results of these investigations were often
published in their journals, which included Labour Research, Fact Service and
Bargaining Report.
The Department were one of the chief critics of the Fascist Movement and
published a number of publications including Who Backs Mosley? which
exposed the Blackshirt Movement and They Helped Hitler which highlighted
how the Chamberlain government had supposedly been involved in German
rearmament.
