The Radical Fifties

Activist Politics in Cold War Britain

Beschreibung

This book turns 1950s Britain upside down. Instead of a dying empire mired in conformism and apathy, it sees a country in a period of intense transformation, no longer what it had been but not quite sure what it was becoming.
