This book seeks to develop a new agenda for the centre-left. During
the 1990's, left of centre governments or coalitions came into
power in the US, many of the European Union countries, and in
societies elsewhere too. The modernisation of social democracy was
crucial to these successes - all centre-left parties that came to
power revised and updated their traditional doctrines. Recent years
have seen the widespread return of the right to power, coupled to
the prominence of far right parties in many countries.
The centre-left must respond. Third-way thinking was a major
source of ideological renewal, but today we must move beyond the
political formulae of the 1990s.
The authors represented in this volume show how. The papers
included were prepared for the summit of progressive leaders held
in July 2003. All have been written by leading experts in their
fields. In his extensive introduction, Anthony Giddens draws the
threads together to sketch a powerful and novel left-centre
political approach.
The book includes contributors from John Kay, Folke Schuppert,
Tom Berntley, David Halpern, G?sta Esping-Andersen, Nicola Rossi,
David Held, Mary Kaldor, Rebecca Willis and James Wilsdon.
Formerly Director of the London School of Economics and
Political Science, Anthony Giddens is a leading contributor to
political debate around the world. He is the author of numverous
widely acclaimed works including The Third Way (1998) and The Third
Way and its Critics (2000).
