'The name of the slough was despond'. If some latter-day John
Bunyan had used these words to describe Britain in the 1970s, few
would have quarrelled with him. How did Britain, victorious in the
Second World War, with her politics characterised by optimism,
descend over thirty years into 'the valley of humiliation'? The
Politics of Decline analyses British politics from the 1940s
through to the I.M.F. crisis of 1976 in a manner that is both
scholarly and forcefully written, presenting a convincing
explanation of what went wrong that owes nothing to the
conventional wisdom.
