Affluence and Authority: A Social History of Twentieth-Century Britain

Autor John Benson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 ian 2005
The turn of the millennium generated a spate of reflections on the state of the nation and the ways in which life in Britain had changed during the course of the twentieth century. Affluence and Authority contributes to this debate by providing a wide-ranging, well-informed and accessible interpretation of British social history during a hundred years of profound, and almost certainly unprecedented, economic, political, cultural, demographic and ideological change.

Recenzii

'This is an ambitious and fascinating book.'
'A major achievement. Affluence and Authority offers an original and up-to-date history of twentieth-century Britain. As well as the conventional forces of greater prosperity and better health, he highlights the less obvious factors which have defined people's lives: the state, the influence of religion, education, the media, work, as well as the place of class and national allegiances in an increasingly fluid and multicultural Britain. He gives a genuine social history for the twenty-first century.'
