Conclusion; Selected Bibliography; Index 330 $aFirst published in 1980, this book considers the British motor industry over the period between 1945 and 1979, analysing the ways in which the industry suffered a considerable decline in the post-war era, when compared to motor industries of other countries or to most other British industries.Rather than blaming labour and management, as has frequently been the case, the author argues that the decline can be traced back to poor government policy. Tracing how, when and where government policies affected the industry, the book examines policies clearly directed at the motor industry, 410 0$aRoutledge revivals. 606 $aAutomobile industry and trade$zGreat Britain$xHistory 607 $aGreat Britain$xEconomic policy$y1945-1964 607 $aGreat Britain$xEconomic policy$y1964-1979 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAutomobile industry and trade$xHistory. 676 $a338.4762920941 700 $aDunnett$b Peter J.
