Description
This fully revised and updated third edition of Thatcher and Thatcherism examines the origins and impact of ‘Thatcherism’ as a cultural construct and an economic creed from the 1970s to the formation of a coalition government in 2010. Focusing on the career of Margaret Thatcher, Eric J. Evans questions both the originality and the ideological coherence of Thatcherism. He argues that Thatcherism was a bold experiment in ideologically driven government, but also that, despite Thatcher’s political dominance, it failed to meet its main objectives. The book includes comprehensive suggestions for further reading and explanations of the economic, social, and historical context of Britain in the late 1970s and 1980s, making it an invaluable guide to the complexities and paradoxes of Britain from the late 1970s to the present day.
