Sixties Britain - Culture, Society and Politics (Paperback, New)

Did the world change in the 1960s? Were there really sexual, political and cultural revolutions? Was Britain in step with the world or not? The debate about the sixties has long been overheated, polarised between those who see the decade as a 'golden age' and others who blame it for today's apparent social ills. Sixties Britain explores the real sixties, providing a detailed discussion ranging across pop, politics, postmodernism, fashion, feminism, foreign policy and much else besides, to show why it was a decade of such dramatic change, but not for the reasons usually cited. Steering away from the ideologically charged accounts of Britain during this time, Donnelly neither romanticises nor demonises this most controversial of decades. He revisits assumptions about the decade and presents a more nuanced and engaging history of Britain in the sixties.
