Description: The 'sequel to his best - selling Classes and Cultures Ross Mc Kibbin's latest book is a powerful reinterpretation of British politics in the first decades of universal suffrage. What did it mean to be a 'democratic society'? To what extent did voters make up their own minds on politics or allow elites to do it for them? Exploring the political culture of these extraordinary years Parties and People shows that class became one of the principal determinants of political behaviour although its influence was often surprisingly weak. Mc Kibbin argues that the kind of democracy that emerged in Britain was far from inevitable - as much historical accident as design - and was in many ways highly flawed.
