内容説明・目次

内容説明

This attempts a new approach to the discipline of contemporary history by integrating different themes of British history into a coherent overview of the changing nature of Britain's domestic and international position. the introduction provides a broad thematic background, stressing that political, social, economic, military and diplomatic factors can no longer be treated in isolation. The following chapters reinterpret themes and events according to this principle, thus representing a departure from the traditional study of history.
