Description

Explore the complex social and political evolution of the British Isles in this comprehensive historical volume. Published by Routledge, this third volume focuses on the long twentieth century, offering a deep look into the massive shifts that defined the era from 1914 to the present day. Readers will examine how British industrial power contracted as the nation transitioned toward a service-based economy. The text traces the cultural movement from Victorianism to the rise of Modernism, while also analyzing the changing nature of class society. You can follow the trajectory of class lines from their peak between the world wars to the blurring of these social divisions after the 1960s. This book provides a detailed account of the impact of two world wars and the subsequent decline of the British empire. It also covers significant political shifts, including the partition of Ireland and the devolution of power to Scotland and Wales. It is an essential resource for students and historians interested in the modern history of Great Britain and its surrounding territories.
