Labour's High Noon by Jim Fyrth
The Labour governments of 1945-51 are seen by many as the high point of Labour's popularity and enthusiasm for reform. The period also established the framework for the postwar consensus. This collection of essays looks at the economic record of the administrations of the Labour governments of 1945-51, critically evaluating the achievements and analyzing the extent to which decisions taken then affected later policy assumptions. The contributors cover a comprehensive range of issues: nationalization and planning; the relationship between the economy and foreign policy; Labour's attitude to race, empire and Europe; agriculture and the farmers' lobby; the nature of women's employment; the Scottish economy; the unions; and the education.| SKU | Unavailable |
