"This new Seminar Study presents a full, succinct and balanced overview of the policies and impact of the Thatcher Governments from 1979 to 1990. Within a chronological framework, the authors analyse the many controversial episodes and aspects of Margaret Thatcher's premiership, including the Falklands War; the miners' strike; Britain's relationship with the USA and the stationing of missiles at Greenham Common; the bitter relationship with Europe and the ill-fated poll tax. In addition, there is a chapter discussing the impact that her policies had on Britain's social and economic landscape and on the British people at large."--BOOK JACKET.
