It attempts to understand the complex transition from so-called 'Old Right' to 'New Right' or 'New Labour', and locates at least some of the roots of the latter in the complexity, tensions and fragmentation of the former during the 'lean' years of social democracy in the 1970's. The analysis addresses both the short and long-term implications of the emerging ideological, organisational and political complexity and divisions of the parliamentary Labour right and Labour revisionismCritical labour movement studies series.Center partiesGreat BritainHistory20th centuryGreat BritainPolitics and government1964-1979Great BritainPolitics and government1997-2007British Labour Party.Labour revisionism.Labour right.New Labour.New Right.Old Labour.Old Right.Social Democratic Party.social democracy.social democratic revisionism.Center partiesHistory324.24107Meredith Stephen1651425MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807443003321Labours old and new4001366UNINA
