Klappentext zu „Evans, E: Thatcher and Thatcherism “
This fully revised and updated third edition of Thatcher and Thatcherism examines the origins and impact of `Thatcherism' as a cultural construct and an economic creed from the 1970s to the formation of a coalition government in 2010.Focusing on the career of Margaret Thatcher, Eric J. Evans questions both the originality and the ideological coherence of Thatcherism were illusory. He argues that Thatcherism was a bold experiment in ideologically driven government. But also that, despite Thatcher's political dominance, failed to meet its main objectives.

'This is the first text in the field and, as a lecturer, I am very grateful for it.' - D. Rothewell, University of Edinburgh 'This is a startling account of Thatcher which is both analytical and ironic in equal proportions.
