This book provides a concise survey of British politics in the postwar era. Now expanded in a new edition, the author extends his exploration of the theme of "consensus" through to the present day, and provides updated further reading.

The book explores the concept of total institutions as defined by sociologist Erving Goffman, focusing on environments where individuals are isolated from broader society for extended periods. It examines how these settings, characterized by a structured and regulated daily life, impact the identities and experiences of those within them. Through a detailed analysis, the text delves into the dynamics of social interaction and the effects of confinement on personal and communal life.

Alec Douglas-Home was an aristocrat who disclaimed his peerage to become Prime Minister in 1963.

Using unpublished archival material, much of it from Anthony Eden's own papers, this text seeks to reassess the career of a man who experienced the extremes of political fortune. His role in the appeasement of the 1930s is scrutinized and his contribution to wartime diplomacy is re-evaluted.
