How has the UK evolved into the country it is today? This clear,
comprehensive survey of its history since 1900 explores the
political, economic, social and cultural changes which have divided
the nation and held it together, and how these changes were
experienced by individuals and communities. Pat Thane challenges
conventional interpretations of Britain's past based on stark
contrasts, like the dull, conservative 1950s versus the liberated
'swinging sixties', and explores the key themes of nationalisms,
the rise and fall of the welfare state, economic success and
failure, imperial decline, and the UK's relationship with Europe.
Highlighting changing living standards and expectations and
inequalities of class, income, wealth, race, gender, sexuality,
religion and place, she reveals what has (and has not) changed in
the UK since 1900, why, and how, helping the reader to understand
how our contemporary society, including its divisions and
inequalities, was formed.
