British Politics in the Global Age Can Social Democracy Survive?

Joel Krieger provides an in-depth study of New Labour's model of government and the political challenges it faces. He analyzes the interaction of global processes and domestic politics from the organization of production to the formation of class, ethnic, and gender-based identities. Krieger develops an original framework for analyzing New Labour in comparison to three models of social democracy and places the British case firmly in the context of alternative national models and European debates.
