Sickness and Health on Australia's Female Convict Ships, 1821–1840
The Colonial Economies
The heights of rural-born English female convicts transported to New South Wales
N icholas and Oxley's analysis of the heights of female convicts transported to New South Wales has brought a valuable new set of data under scrutiny, and their argument adds a further strand to the debate over the standard of living during the industrial revolution.2 Nicholas and Oxley find that English convicts born around i8i5 were shorter than those born i5 to 20 years earlier, with the fall in height being greater for women than for men and …

Trends in Australian living standards since 1890
Rates of Industrial Growth during the Industrial Revolution
T he question of the rate of industrial growth is central to our understanding of the British industrial revolution. Thus, when Harley demonstrated that industrial growth in the period I770-i8I5 had been exaggerated by Hoffmann and by Deane and Cole, a powerful stimulus was given to interpretations which stressed both the slowness of overall growth and the elements of continuity with earlier experience.' Recent estimates by Crafts, Leybourne, and…
Government expenditure and British economic growth in the eighteenth century
Bentham's Penal Theory in Action
Bentham was an influential thinker with an ‘essentially practical mind’. His influence on British social and political reform, however, was indirect, coming largely after his death and largely through the work of his disciples. Bentham's own attempts to put his ideas directly into practice generally had little effect. He came closest to success in the area of penal policy, winning a contract from Pitt's government in the early 1790s to build and …
Luxury in punishment
The structure of pay in nineteenth-century Britain
Short – Run Interaction of Public and Private Sectors in Australia, 1861–90
Growth and Deceleration in English Agriculture, 1660-1790
T he transformation of agriculture in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries is one of the more intensively studied aspects of English economic history. The historiography of agriculture is, however, largely qualitative. There is, in O'Brien's words, shortage of numbers.2 The lack of generally accepted estimates of the course of total real agricultural output, in particular, has been severely felt. The estimates of agricultural output in Deane …
Building Societies and the Workers in Melbourne in the 1880s
The rise and fall of the Melbourne building societies were a spectacular part of the boom and bust of the 1880s and early 1890s. The standard interpretation of the effects of the growth and decline of building societies on ordinary wage-earners during this period has been influenced by the impressions of one of the more acute contemporary observers, T. A. Coghlan.1 He states that building societies were formed to gather worker savings and to lend…
