Críticas:
A fitting tribute to a historian who has a keen eye for popular amusements and pastimes... fresh and surprising. (Susan Pedersen, London Review of Books)
Ross McKibbin has encouraged a rich and complex approach to British history. We are all in his debt. (Rohan McWilliam, Tribune Magazine)
Reseña del editor:
Classes, Culture, and Politics investigates those fields in British history that have been illustrated by the works of Ross McKibbin, one of the foremost historians of twentieth century Britain. Written by a distinguished team of scholars, it examines McKibbin's life and thought, and explores the implications of his arguments. One of his most important achievements has been to break down the artificial barriers that existed between 'social' and 'political' history, in order to enrich the writing of both; that legacy is reflected throughout this volume.
From international football to Liberal internationalism, from the hedonism of the early Labour party to the relationship between London cabbies and Thatcherism, this volume is an ambitious attempt to explore contemporary Britain, endeavouring to be as original, unsycophantic, rebarbative, and diverting as the historian whose work has inspired it.
