内容説明

This work covers the history of British Liberalism from the first flourishing of the doctrine in the later 18th-century, to the final dissolution of the Liberal party, to the Liberal Democrats in 1988. It sets the fortunes of the party and its problems in the context of its Conservative and Labour rivals and explores the internal political rivalries which were to prove so costly. Its focus is on liberalism rather than the Liberal party itself - within the intellectual currents of the time.

内容説明

Here is the first book to cover the history of British Liberalism from its founding doctrines in the later eighteenth century to the final dissolution of the Liberal party into the Liberal Democrats in 1988. The Party dominated British politics for much of the later nineteenth-century, most notably under Gladstone, whose premierships spanned 1868-1894, and during the early twentieth, but after the resignation of Lloyd George in 1922 the Liberal Party never held office again. The decline of the Party remains a unique phenomenon in British politics and Alan Sykes illuminates its dramatic and peculiar circumstances in this comprehensive study.
