The key argument made in Aled Davies's study is that changes to the British financial system during the 1960s and 1970s undermined a number of the key components of social democratic economic policy practised by the post-war British State. The institutionalization of investment in pension and insurance funds; the fragmentation of an oligopolistic domestic banking system; the emergence of an unregulated international capital market centred on London; the breakdown of the Bretton Woods international monetary system; and the popularization of a City-centric, anti-industrial conception of Britain's economic identity, all served to disrupt and undermine the social democratic economic strategy which had attempted to develop and maintain Britain's international competitiveness as an industrial economy since the Second World War. These findings assert the need to place the Thatcher governments' subsequent economic policy revolution, in which a liberal market approach accelerated deindustrialization and saw the rapid expansion of the nation's international financial service industry, within a broader material and institutional context previously underappreciated by historians."--Back cover. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web 648 7 1900-1999 |2fast 650 7 Economic history. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00901974 651 0 London (England) |xEconomic conditions |y20th century. |=^A57853 651 7 England |zLondon. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01204271 |?UNAUTHORIZED 655 0 Electronic books. |=^A491897 710 2 Oxford University Press. |=^A636469 856 40 |zFull text available from Oxford Scholarship Online |uhttps://go.openathens.net/redirector/ecu.edu?url=https%3A%2F%2Facademic.oup.com%2Fbook%2F10301 856 40 |zFull text available from Oxford Scholarship Online History |uhttps://go.openathens.net/redirector/ecu.edu?url=https%3A%2F%2Facademic.oup.com%2Fbook%2F10301 947 (OCoLC)ocn967974189 949 CLICK ON WEB ADDRESS |wASIS |hJOYNER188 949 CLICK ON WEB ADDRESS |wASIS |hHSL77 949 CLICK ON WEB ADDRESS |wASIS |hJMUSIC60 596 1 3 4 998 5502958
