Book excerpt: Analyzing the last 10 years of British parliament, contributors examine the age of Tony Blair as Prime Minister and the time of Labour Party dominance as it comes to an end. Comparing previous Labour Party governments to the current, scholars reflect on the past, present, and future of British politics and whether a Labour dominated government will outlast Blair's period in office. Offering opinions and political forecasting from some of the most respected experts in their fields, Blair's political history is examined and critiqued, contemplating the outcome and effects of his decisions and policies as Prime Minister since 1997.

Book excerpt: Where other books are either highly partisan dismissals or appreciations of the Third Way, or dull sociological accounts, this book gets behind the clichés in order to show just what is left of Labour party ideology and what the future may hold. New Labour has changed the face of Britain. Culture, class, education, health, the arts, leisure, the economy have all seen seismic shifts since the 1997 election that raised Blair to power. The Labour that rules has distanced itself from the failed Labour of the 70s and 80s, but the core remains. Labour remains gripped by its own past - unable and unwilling to shed its ties to the old Labour party, but determined to avoid the mistakes of which lead to four electoral defeats between 1979 and 1992. Cronin covers the full history of the party from its post war triumph through decades of shambolic leadership against ruthless and organised opposition to the resurgent New Labour of the 90s that finally took Britain into the new millennium.

Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2010 in the subject Politics - Political Systems - General and Comparisons, grade: 1,5, University of Potsdam (Institut für Politikwissenschaft), language: English, abstract: Die Arbeit wurde in englischer Sprache abgefasst. In der vorliegenden Arbeit soll der Einfluss des 'Dritten Weges' auf die englische Labour Party geklärt werden. Zu Beginn der Arbeit untersuche ich, ob der 'Dritte Weg' als Ideologie zu bezeichnen ist. In diesem Kontext kläre ich die wichtigsten Punkte des Politikansatzes anhand eines Rasters von Andrew Heywood in Abgrenzung zum tradierten sozialdemokratischen Ansatz. Dies geschieht um nachzuvollziehen, dass es sich beim 'Dritten Weg' um einen durchdachten Politikansatz handelt und nicht um lose Fragmente politischer Ideen. Darüber hinaus können hierdurch die größten Unterschiede zur alten Sozialdemokratie besser betrachtet werden. Nachfolgend bestimme ich die Einflussfaktoren, die die Labour Party dazu motiviert haben, die Modernisierung ihres Politikkonzeptes voranzubringen. Dabei werden Faktoren innerhalb und außerhalb der Partei betrachtet. Wir müssen bedenken, dass es sich beim 'Dritten Weg' um einen Zwitter handelt. Auf der einen Seite ist es ein umfassender Politikansatz, gleichzeitig aber auch eine Strategie zur Maximierung des Wahlerfolges. Ich vergleiche diese Strategie mit dem Konzept des Parteienwettbewerbes von Anthony Downs. Zum Ende der Arbeit kläre ich den Einfluss des Konzeptes auf die Partei und die Frage zur Implementierung des Politikansatzes. Innerhalb der Arbeit wird eine Frage aufgeworfen, die nicht beantwortet werden kann. Wenn wir die Zielstellung zur Maximierung des Wahlerfolges betrachten, dann ist die Frage, ob die Modernisierung der Partei für diesen Wahlerfolg erforderlich war, von besonderer Bedeutung. Im Fazit fasse ich die Ergebnisse der vorangegangenen Kapitel zusammen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. Interpreting the Labour Party consists of twelve essays on the principal thinkers and schools of thought concerned with the political and historical development of the Labour Party and Labour movement. The essays are written by contributors who have devoted many years to the study of the Labour Party, the trade union movement and the various ideologies associated with them. The book begins with an in-depth analysis of how to study the Labour Party, and goes on to examine key periods in the development of the ideologies to which the party has subscribed. Each chapter situates its subject matter in the context of a broader intellectual legacy, including the works of Sidney and Beatrice Webb, Theodore Rothstein, Stuart Hall and Samuel Beer, among others.
