Description
Thatcherism: A Graphic Guide explores the most radical shift in British society since the end of World War II. From privatisation and the right-to-buy to the Falklands War, few areas of Margaret Thatcher's premiership are without controversy.
The book examines the ideological convictions that drove her policies, tracing the influence of Victorian morality and free-market economics on her thinking. Peter Pugh and Carl Flint investigate whether Thatcher represented a radical break from the past and how far she managed to put her ideology into action.
