Description
The election of Clement Attlee in 1945 proved to be one of the landmarks in British political history, and the four decades since then have seen a fascinating variety of styles of government. In "Ruling Performance" a group of scholars, journalists and politicians assess the characteristics of each administration and the style of each prime minister in the light of Britain's changing role in the world.
