Opis

A set of reflections on British society and culture, this volume falls into two principal parts. The first consists of a pair of essays published in new Left Review in the 1960s. Origins of the Present Crisis - which suggested a general schema for the analysis of class and power in modern Britain and their relation to its decline; and Components of National Culture, which looked at the pattern of intellectual disciplines associated with the post-war political consensus. One premise of these accounts was a conception of bourgeois revolution, whose critique is sketched in a short intermezzo from the mid 1970s.
