Sixties Britain: Culture, Society and Politics

Autor Mark Donnelly
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 dec 2014
Sixties Britain provides a more nuanced and engaging history of Britain. This book analyses the main social, political, cultural and economic changes Britain undertook as well as focusing on the 'silent majority' who were just as important as the rebellious students, the residents if Soho and the icons of popular culture. Sixties Britain engages the reader without losing sight of the fact that the 1960s were a vibrant, fascinating and controversial time in British History.

Descriere

Sixties Britain analyses the main social, political, cultural and economic changes Britain underwent in the Sixties; examining pop, politics, postmodernism, fashion, feminism, foreign policy and much else besides, to show why it was a time of such dramatic change, and not for the reasons most usually cited.
 
Steering away from the ideologically charged accounts of Britainduring this time, Donnelly neither romanticises nor demonises this most controversial of decades. He revisits assumptions about the 1960’s and presents a nuanced and engaging history of Britain.
Suitable for use on undergraduate courses on sixties and twentieth-century Britain.
