Reviews
"This is an important and interesting book. The chapters of this book, each written by appropriate experts, dig down and uncover the forces at work and the complex interactions between them. The rise and fall of trade unions, the rise of the service sector, the decline in fertility, the fall and rise of earnings dispersion are some of the dramatic changes which are analysed and explained. Overall, the book builds a picture of the workings of the 20th century British labour market which will fascinate anyone interested in how the world works."--Stephen Nickell, Warden of Nuffield College, Oxford University "The British labor market experienced a series of dramatic transformations in the course of the 20th century. Is the current regime of high employment and wage flexibility here to stay, or is it just another passing phase? Do Britain's arrangements reflect a distinctive historical experience, or might they be emulated by Continental Europe? This important book by Crafts, Gazeley and Newell provides the perspective needed to contemplate these questions."--Barry Eichengreen, University of California, Berkeley, "This is an important and interesting book.
