Opis

The 1976 IMF crisis was a seminal event in modern British political and economic history. This study, based on vital original source material, including interviews with leading actors, probes economic thought and practice by governments and questions much received wisdom, especially that the effect of the IMF crisis was a shift to the monetarist orthodoxy and right-wing economic liberalism of the 1980s--to be embraced by all parties including New Labour.
