Parliamentary Socialism presents a detailed and scholarly record of
the Labour Party's thinking and of its role in British politics

'the most important contribution made for many years to the study
of the way the Labour Party works'. Contents includes: Labour in
Parliament; Labour in the First World War; Parliamentarism versus
Direct Action; From Opposition to Office; The General Strike; The
Challenge of Appeasement; The Climax of Labourism; The Sickness of

London School of Economics before taking up the Chair of Politics
