The author concentrates on the global nature of capitalism as the context for the development of national capitalism, and on the relationship between internal and external factors. A long-term view of British politics enables him to demonstrate that competing popular explanations of Britain's crisis and the rise of Thatcherism in response to it, are in fact interconnected. The long decline of Britain originating in the 19\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e century, the inherent weakness of the post-1945 settlement, and the critical events of 1970s, acquire their fullest meaning when seen as different layers' of one and the same historical process. Henk Overbeek takes the story of Britain's decline through to Margaret Thatcher's tenth anniversary in office. His book will be invaluable to scholars and students of economics, politics, and history. it offers a\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eList of abbreviations List of tables and figures Preface Introduction\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cb\u003e1. \u003c\/b\u003eLong waves of class formation \u003cb\u003e2. \u003c\/b\u003eThe rise and fall of British hegemony \u003cb\u003e3. \u003c\/b\u003eBetween New Deal and fascism: depression, war and transition in Britain \u003cb\u003e4. \u003c\/b\u003eThe redefinition of Britain’s global position 1941-73 \u003cb\u003e5. \u003c\/b\u003eThe postwar Fordist offensives \u003cb\u003e6. \u003c\/b\u003eGlobal crisis and the rise of neo-liberalism \u003cb\u003e7. \u003c\/b\u003eThatcherism in power \u003cb\u003e8. \u003c\/b\u003ePerspectives for Thatcherism \u003ci\u003eNotes References Subject Index Name Index Author Index\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51019009851735,"sku":"9781032368979","price":82.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781032368979.jpg?v=1750779013","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/global-capitalism-and-national-decline-9781032368979","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
