Description

Explore a deep reassessment of 20th-century British history with The Slump: Britain in the Great Depression. While the 1930s are often remembered through the lens of hunger marches, mass unemployment, and the rise of fascism, this study looks beyond those legends to find a more complex reality. This work examines the era's contradictions, including the development of new industries, the growth of comfortable suburbia, and rising standards of living for many during the same period as the means test and dole queues. Professor Arthur Marwick describes it as a brilliant study that finds a marvelous theme in British history. Whether you are a student of history or a reader interested in how societies navigate economic struggle, this Routledge publication provides an objective look at a decade that continues to offer lessons for the modern world. Gain a clearer understanding of the economic and social shifts that shaped the nation during one of its most challenging eras.
