First published in 1955, this book offers a detailed history from
the past to the mid-20th century on economic control. The book
examines economic competition, particularly regarding the British
economic system, and Fogarty looks at its scope, as well as its
limits. This analysis considers working conditions in the mid-20th
century, examining the impacts of industry on the life and work of
the British agricultural population. The book first examines
production decisions, arguing that a systematic and periodic
overhaul of control mechanisms are required. Fogarty goes to give a
detailed analysis on decisions about industry objectives.
Ultimately, a broader look is given on the wider economic setting,
and the definition of the economist is itself examined, taking into
account the wider role that economics played in 20th century
society.
First published in 1957, this book is a detailed analysis on
Christian Democracy, a movement backed by Protestants as well as
Catholics, which has become one of the great social forces of
Western Europe. It is strong in eight countries. The first half of
Fogarty's book sets out what the many Christian-Democratic
movements stand for. The second part of the book shows how these
movements began, how they have grown, changed, and consolidated,
and how they developed into the mid-20th century. This is a broad
and useful survey which delves the history, nature and significance
of the Christian Democratic movements in Europe. In Fogarty's
analysis, Christian Democracy may indeed bring about a renewed
unity of the Christian tradition in Western society.
In this book, first published in 1971, the authors show from
first-hand studies of family and working life (and with evidence
from many countries, including the socialist societies of Eastern
Europe) the nature of the discrimination facing women in the
professions - and how various family and employment patterns might
contribute to solving it. Their point is not that some new
stereotype should be substituted for traditional views of the role
of husbands and wives: different patterns fit different situations.
How far is there a 'feminine' style of managerial and professional
work? Have employers taken account of the different timetable
governing the life of a woman as compared to that of a man, and the
implications of this if women are to have the training, promotion
and job security needed to reach the top? This book, first
published in 1971, considers women as company directors; examines
the position of women managers in two large firms; analyses how
they fare in senior posts in the BBC and in the Civil Service. The
four studies together contain a mass of information on women's
education and the reasons why they reach the top - or fail to get
there.
