Neil Kinnock
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-18413-5 (ISBN)
The book reappraises Neil Kinnock’s policies, impact, legacy and leadership of the Labour Party 30 years on from his defeat in the 1992 general election. It offers comprehensively fresh perspectives and some first-hand accounts – some friendly, others more critical – from leading academics, journalists, politicians and advisors on various aspects of ideas, policy, elections and party management, including an interview with the man himself as he looks back on his experiences. This timely book will resonate widely with the current challenges to Labour’s leadership and the enduring uncertainties on the future of the party.
This book will be of key interest to researchers and students in the fields of political studies and contemporary history as well as the interested general reader.
Kevin Hickson is Senior Lecturer in British Politics at the University of Liverpool, UK.
