  This analysis of Britain today takes a look at the main disputes over the economy, social policy and politics. In sections on Britain's economic development, the changing nature of waged work, the distribution of housing, health and education, the impact or otherwise of the Thatcher years,and the reconstruction of inequality, it challenges the widely held notion that Thatcher has brought about a radical break with the past; instead the authors emphasize the longer term antecedents of current development.
