Mass Observation

Mass Observation was founded in 1937 by three young men, who aimed to create an 'anthropology of ourselves'. They recruited a team of observers and a panel of volunteer writers to study the everyday lives of ordinary people in Britain. The original Mass Observation idea of a national panel was revived from the Archive in 1981. In 2007, we celebrated the 70th anniversary of the founding of the original Mass Observation project.

Een archief dat teruggaat tot 1937 over het leven van de gewone brit. Wie wil dat niet in zijn kelder hebben.
