Market Socialism by Julian Le Grand
Following the Labour Party's defeat in two consecutive elections - 1979 and 1983 - it became clear that the party had suffered the loss of an intellectual base. Many traditional socialist forms of economic organization were perceived as failures. Perceiving that a re-think of socialism was needed, the Fabian Society set up a Socialist Philosophy Group to assess the direction that the Labour movement should take. This study is the direct result of that group's discussions and findings.
JULIAN LE GRAND is the Richard Titmuss Professor of Social Policy at the London School of Economics. He is a leading expert on public and social policy and acted as a senior policy advisor to the Prime Minister between 2003 and 2005. He is the author, co-author or editor of seventeen books and over ninety articles on economics, philosophy and public policy.
