The Politics of Crisis is an interpretation of the most dramatic
periods of modern British political history - the decade and a half
between 1931 and 1945. Formed to sustain the British economy in the
midst of the Great Depression, the National Governments of the
1930s achieved this and more, and electoral popularity unmatched
since. Yet the conventional wisdom about those Governments is full
of the unemployment that they inherited, as it is of the image of
Neville Chamberlain trying and failing to buy peace from Hitler at
Munich. For then comes the Second World War and Winston Churchill
and victory of a kind for Britain, and a curious form of domestic
politics that, with peace restored, witnesses the victor turned out
of office. The Politics of Crisis clinically assesses the evidence
and these events and provides a challenging and new interpretation
of them.
