Description:

This course examines processes of political change in Britain in the second half of the twentieth century through to the present. It assesses the challenges Britain faced as a result of the twin processess of welfare and warfare and the insitutional and policy changes which these pressues produced. The twin conjunctures of the 1930s/40s and 1970s/19080s will be given special attention as decisive moments in the re-ordering of British social and political life and the way the changes related to Britain's sense of itself as a country coming to terms with the perception pf decline and the existence of alternative and potentially disruptive models of modernity.
