The Third Way The Renewal of Social Democracy

The idea of finding a 'third way' in politics has been widely discussed over recent months - not only in the UK, but in the US, Continental Europe and Latin America. But what is the third way? Supporters of the notion haven't been able to agree, and critics deny the possibility altogether. Anthony Giddens shows that developing a third way is not only a possibility but a necessity in modern politics.

Anthony Giddens is a British sociologist who is known for his theory of structuration and his holistic view of modern societies.
