(From thre library of George Rude, author and historian, signed by him to inside cover). The world recession, industrial competition, technological change, the activities of the trades unions: these are some of the causes of Britain's mass unemployment. But, the author argues, British governments since 1974 are also to blame - through their blind pursuit of policies which have used unemployment as a means for bringing down inflation. In this perceptive and balanced assessment of the economic foundations of the Conservative Government's thinking, Ian Gilmour argues that monetarism is incomplete with the Tory tradition. He exposed the profound disarray in economic theory in Britain and asserts that economics cannot be separated from its political and moral context. Practically, he is concered to show that there is an alternative. He indicates that a modest reflation programme will not have the dire consequences that some predict, and shows how government can promote industrial change and reduce the misery of unemployment. Such a programme, Ian Gilmour argues, is also the Conservative Party's best hope for the future. 264 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.). …
