Marxist scholarship, including the writings of the British Marxist historians, has given much insight to social theory. The development of British Marxist historiography runs from the interwar period with the intellectual work of founders Dona Torr and Maurice Dobb to the radical student generation of the 1930s and 1940s whose members included Rodney Hilton, Christopher Hill, Eric Hobsbawm, and E. P. Thompson. The British Marxist historians contribute to social theory with their class analysis and “history from below” approach to include a historical narrative about British working‐class experience.
