Episode 2: Why didn't wages change in London for one hundred years? With Judy Stephenson
You would think that generations of workers in seventeenth and eighteenth century London might want a payrise, yet many were paid a fixed wage across their entire working career. Why was this the case? And what can we learn about labour economics and movements from the craftsmen who built St. Paul's Cathedral? Andrew and Lloyd chat with Judy Stephenson (University College London) about all things early-modern in this discussion of labour and wages in eighteenth-century Britain.
