Description

This comprehensive history traces British Liberalism from its foundational doctrines in the late eighteenth century through to the Liberal party's final merger into the Liberal Democrats in 1988. The book examines how the Liberal party dominated British politics throughout the later nineteenth century, particularly during Gladstone's premierships between 1868 and 1894, and maintained significant influence in the early twentieth century before Lloyd George's resignation in 1922 marked the beginning of its irreversible decline. Alan Sykes provides critical analysis of this unique political phenomenon, exploring the dramatic factors that transformed the party from a dominant force into political obscurity. This authoritative work offers essential reading for anyone studying British political history, the evolution of liberalism as a political ideology, and the structural changes that reshaped the British political landscape throughout two centuries.

Key Features

Covers the complete history of British Liberalism spanning from 1776 to 1988, tracing the party's rise, dominance, and eventual dissolution.

Examines the Liberal party's peak power during the late nineteenth century under William Gladstone's four premierships from 1868 to 1894.

Analyses the dramatic decline following Lloyd George's resignation in 1922 and the party's failure to hold office again thereafter.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic press specialising in rigorous historical scholarship and political analysis.
