Description:
Drawing together the themes that have dominated discussion among scholars and media commentators, this volume provides a valuable introduction for students of contemporary British history, politics, and society. Britain Since 1945 comprises 23 contributions from leading authorities and newer scholars, set in context with a foreword by Raymond Seitz and an introduction by the volume editor.
Chapter topics range from "Parliament and the Constitution", "The Welfare State", and "Gender", to "Currents of Political Thought", "Foreign Policy and Defence", and "Social History/Social Trends". There is also coverage of the regions of Britain, with individual essays on Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. The chapters are written with the beginner in mind and assume no prior knowledge. Each includes a section of suggested further reading to aid in-depth study. The book will be the ideal starting point for anyone interested in understanding the nature and transformations of post-war Britain.
