The relationship between the British government and the City of
London has become central to debates on modern British economic,
political and social life. For some the City's financial and
commercial interests have exercised a dominant influence over
government economic policy, creating a preoccupation with
international markets and the strength of sterling which impaired
domestic industrial and social well-being. Others have argued that
government seriously constricted financial markets, jeopardising
Britain's most successful economic sector. This collection of
essays was the first book to address these issues over the entire
twentieth century. It brings together leading financial and
political historians to assess the government-City relationship
from several directions and by examination of key episodes. As
such, it will be indispensable not just for the study of modern
British politics and finance, but also for assessment of the
worldwide problem of tensions between national governments and
international financial centres.
