One of the interesting features of the Arts and Crafts movement is that it occurred at time of great interest in 'socialism' (in its broadest 19th century sense as a contrast term to 'individualism'). As a result, alongside the creation of individual artists and craftsmen in traditional ataliers (artists workshops), there was a substantial formation of other [[civil society]] organizations - specialized production units, movements, groups, clubs, networks, alliances and many other types of organized activity quite unlike anything else in art history.
