Global Capitalism and National Decline
Author: Henk Overbeek
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000776522
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
First published in 1990, Global Capitalism and National Decline is a major contribution to the study of British political and economic decline. The author concentrates on the global nature of capitalism as the context for the development of national capitalism, and on the relationship between internal and external factors. A long-term view of British politics enables him to demonstrate that competing popular explanations of Britain’s crisis and the rise of Thatcherism in response to it, are in fact interconnected. The long decline of Britain originating in the 19th century, the inherent weakness of the post-1945 settlement, and the critical events of 1970s, acquire their fullest meaning when seen as different ‘layers’ of one and the same historical process. Henk Overbeek takes the story of Britain’s decline through to Margaret Thatcher’s tenth anniversary in office. His book will be invaluable to scholars and students of economics, politics, and history. it offers a clear perspective on the problems of national decline within a global context, and on Britain’s position in Europe and in the wider world.
