The Politics of the Thatcher Revolution is about the most dramatic period in modern British politics, the era of the Thatcher revolution of1979 - 1990. The Conservatives inherited a country that many feared had been rendered ungovernable by trade union power, those exercising which desired a socialist future for Britain. Margaret Thatcher's Governments of the 1980s broke union power and ledBritain firmly down the economic liberal road of Western consumerism, radically changing public policy and administration in the process. Being neither one of the defeated nor an economic liberal, butan untrue believer in the Revolution in the sense of largely predicting it, the author is well placed to produce a dispassionate analysis of this fascinating era.
