Britain in Europe: Prospects for Change

Contains contributions from a 1996 conference held in the immediate aftermath of Tony Blair's landslide victory in the British elections, at the height of controversy about Britain's future role in Europe. Chapters anticipate subsequent developments of the past two years, and raise issues that still remain to be addressed. Subjects include the history of British music, perceptions of Britain in Wilhelmine social democracy, the sources of New Labor, Scotland and the new regionalism, and the Europeanization of English football. Lacks a subject index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
