A wide-ranging introductory study provides an overview of the Labour Party, which covers the period between the eras of Clement Attlee and John Smith. It weighs the conflicting arguments, and takes a broader look at the interaction of policy, ideology and organization in Labour's history.

What caused the 'strange death of Labour Britain'? Why did the party that swept to power in 1945 - and governed for half of the next twenty five years - falter so badly in the 1970's and 1980's? Here the author weighs up the conflicting arguments, and also takes a broader look at the interaction of policy, ideology and organisation in Labour's history. By drawing together these themes, Dr Jeffreys provides a wide-ranging introductory study: the first historical overview of the Labour party to cover the whole period between the eras of Clement Attlee and John Smith.
