Psychological Socialism - The Labour Party And Qualities Of Mind And Character, 1931 To The Present

de Jeremy Nuttall

25,88€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 To Labours first Prime Minister, Ramsay MacDonald, socialism meant not only satisfactory figures of death rates and improved houses but also the mental cleanliness, the moral robustness of our people. This book explores the neglected theme of individual character and mental qualities in British social democratic thought and Labour Party history. How important was it for the centre-left that citizens be good people? What was the relationship between socialism and psychology in the 1930s? Did Labours technocratic, statist socialism of the 1950s and 1960s downgrade moral and mental progress? Why was the party often more concerned to produce a rationally planned economy that rational, independent-minded citizens? Does New Labour represent a sidelining of ethical socialism or a re-birth of the pre-war lefts belief in improvement through education and self-control.

Labours Old And New - The Parliamentary Right Of The British Labour Party 197079 And The Roots Of New Labour

de Stephen Meredith

86,38€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This study is concerned with the Old Labour right at a critical juncture of social democratic and Labour politics. It attempts to understand the complex transition from so-called Old Right to New Right or New Labour, and locates at least some of the roots of the latter in the complexity, tensions and fragmentation of the former during the lean years of social democracy in the 1970s. The analysis addresses both the short and long-term implications of the emerging ideological, organisational and political complexity and divisions of the parliamentary Labour right and Labour revisionism, previously concealed within the loosely adhesive post-war framework of Keynesian reformist social democracy. It establishes the extent to which New Labour is a legatee of at least some elements of the disparate and discordant Labour right and tensions of social democratic revisionism in the 1970s. In so doing, it advances our understanding of a key moment in the development of social democracy and the making of the contemporary British Labour Party.

Between Growth And Security - Swedish Social Democracy From A Strong Society To A Third Way

de Jenny Andersson

86,38€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <p>The notion of social policy as a productive investment and a prerequisite for economic growth became a core feature in the ideology of Swedish social democracy, and a central component of the universalism of the Swedish welfare state. However as the Swedish Social Democratic Party (SAP) embarked on its Third Way in 1981, this outlook on social policy as a productive investment was replaced by the identification of social policy as a cost and a burden for growth. <br><br>This book discusses the components of this ideological turnaround from Swedish social democracys post-war notion of a strong society, to its notion of a Third Way in the early 1980s. It is a novel and innovative contribution to the history of Swedish social democracy and recent developments in the Swedish welfare state, and it also sheds light on contemporary social policy debates. It will appeal to a wide readership from students of contemporary history and politics to policy makers and specialists.</p>
