This new introductory level textbook explains the crucial relationship between politics and economics in Britain.The author traces the emergence and growth of economic management by government, and examines the impact of Keynesian theories and…the New Right reactions to state intervention. In particular, he assesses the economic record of the Thatcher administrations and their impact on the Left and Centre. He gives an account of the economic role of the State, the nature of the Keynesian revolution, the decline of Butskellism and the renewed impact of neoclassical theories. He examines the relationship between party ideologies and economic management, and askes whether there has been a revolution in the economic role of the State since 1979. The machiner of economic policy-making and a number of topics such as the role of employers and unions in economic management are also featured.
