Margaret Thatchera s departure from office and the arrival of her successor, John Major, have had a profound impact on the way Britain is governed -- and in this new edition of Consensus Politics, the authors examines the legacy of Thatcherite "conviction politics" and assesses the state of consensus in Britaina s government today. This chronicle of the rise and fall of the post--war consensus in five key policy areas -- the mixed economy, full employment, trade unions, welfare and foreign policy -- remains a superb introduction to one of the major debates of recent political history.
