During the first 50 years in England from 1800-1850 many of the subjects addressing what "human rights" are were being challenged. Suffrage, crime and punishment (including what crimes merit capital punishment) slavery, ownership of property, working conditions, etc, were under scrutiny.
This was occurring at the same time society was instituting strict social behavior norms for its upper class members of society (The Downton Abby class)

This will be expressed in a paragraph that lists 3 pieces of evidence that support your opinion about why your "Theme" is correct.
* What condition(s) lead to the act (this is where you describe what the social conditions were that created the "need" to make a change... why did the Chartist Act come about?
* Describe the Act itself...What changed as a result of the Chartist Act being implemented
* Describe the details of the Act...how would you explain the Chartist Act to someone who didn't know what it was...this is where you include a few "such as..." or "for example..."
