The period 1940-1960 was a time of considerable change in British
society. It saw the emergence of mass democracy, a world war and
then unprecedented affluence. Change brought uncertainty among
Britain s elites, which in turn encouraged them to reflect more
acutely on the direction the nation was taking. Questions were
posed: what was the social role of ordinary men and women in
20th-century Britain? What were their needs, their rights, their
responsibilities? How did they stand in relation not only to the
State but to their regions and communities? And how were those
objects of loyalty or disloyalty defined? Who, in other words, were
the British, and by what processes did they come to be so
considered?; The contributors explore the development of these
ideas by a variety of individuals and organizations, and the
relationship between these opinion-makers and political parties.
They also examine the extent to which their conclusions were
translated into social policy in an attempt to shape the evolution
of modern Britain."
