This edition collects both volumes of Modernity Britain for the first timeFollowing Austerity Britain and Family Britain, the third volume in David Kynaston''s landmark social history of post-war Britain''Triumphant ... A historian of peerless sensitivity and curiosity about the lives of individuals'' Financial Times''This superb history captures the birth pangs of modern Britain ... It is a part of Kynaston’s huge achievement that such moments of insight and pleasure should accompany what has become a monumental history of our recent past'' The Times____________________David Kynaston’s history of post-war Britain has so far taken us from the radically reforming Labour governments of the late 1940s in Austerity Britain and through the growing prosperity of Family Britain’s more placid 1950s. Now Modernity Britain 1957–62 sees the coming of a new Zeitgeist as Kynaston gets up close to a turbulent era in which the speed of social change accelerated. The late 1950s to early 1960s was an action-packed, often dramatic time in which the contours of modern Britain began to take shape. These were the ‘never had it so good’ years, when the Carry On film series got going, and films like Room at the Top and the first soaps like Coronation Street and ...

The early sixties in Britain told as only David Kynaston (''the most entertaining historian alive'' Spectator) can. Running from 1962 to 1965, A Northern Wind is the anticipated new volume in the landmark ''Tales of a New Jerusalem'' series.''From Daleks and dingy tower blocks to nuclear threats, this addictively readable book charts dizzying change . . .

From the seismic coming of Liverpool''s the Beatles to a sex scandal that rocked the Tory government to the arrival at No 10 of Harold Wilson, a Yorkshireman utterly different from his Old Etonian predecessors.A Northern Wind, the keenly anticipated next instalment of David Kynaston''s acclaimed Tales of a New Jerusalem series, brings to vivid life the period between October 1962 and February 1965. Drawing upon an unparalleled array of diaries, newspapers and first-hand recollections, Kynaston''s masterful storytelling refreshes familiar events – the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Big Freeze, the assassination of JFK, the funeral of Winston Churchill – while revealing in all their variety the experiences of the people living through ...

''Thoroughly researched and written with such calm authority, yet makes you want to scream with righteous indignation'' John O''Farrell‘We can expect the manifesto-writers at the next general election to pass magpie-like over these chapters ... The appeal to act is heartfelt’ Financial Times___________________Includes a new chapter, ''Moving Ahead?''Britain’s private, fee-paying schools are institutions where children from affluent families have their privileges further entrenched through a high-quality, richly-resourced education. Engines of Privilege contends that, in a society that mouths the virtues of equality of opportunity, of fairness and of social cohesion, the educational apartheid separating private schools from our state schools deploys our national educational resources unfairly; blocks social mobility; reproduces privilege down the generations; and underpins a damaging democratic deficit in our society.Francis Green and David Kynaston carefully examine options for change, while drawing on the valuable lessons of history. Clear, vigorous prose is combined with forensic analysis to powerful effect, illuminating the painful contrast between the importance of private schools in British society and the near-absence of serious, policy-shaping debate.___________________''An excoriating account of the inequalities perpetuated by Britain’s love affair with private schools'' The Times

WINNER OF THE TELEGRAPH CRICKET BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD 2019 ''Beautifully written, meticulously researched and stuffed with rich sporting and social history ... Unputdownable'' Mail on SundayAfter the Second World War, as the BBC tightened its grip on the national consciousness, two of the most famous English voices were commentators on games of cricket. John Arlott and E.W. (''Jim'') Swanton transformed the broadcasting of the nation’s summer game into a national institution. Arlott and Swanton typified the contrasting aspects of post-war Britain. Because of their strong personalities and distinctive voices – Swanton''s crisp and upper-class, Arlott''s with its Hampshire burr – each had a loyal following. As England moved from a class-based to a more egalitarian society, nothing stayed the same – including professional cricket. Wise, lively and filled with rich social and sporting history, Arlott, Swanton and the Soul of English Cricket shows how, as the game entered a new era, these two very different men battled to save the soul of the game._______________________''Magnificent … One of the best cricket books I’ve read in years: it makes long-forgotten matches live and breathe as though they were played yesterday'' Daily Mail, Books of the Year''A triumph … [Kynaston and ...

When North Korea mounted its audacious surprise invasion of South Korea in June 1950, the world was stunned. Within 3 days, the Soviet backed North Koreans had captured the South Korean capital of Seoul and threatened to soon take over the entire country. Facing imminent defeat, the South Koreans and their American allies put out the call for urgent reinforcements. Among the first to answer were the men of the 27th British Commonwealth Brigade. Comprising units from five countries - Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and India - the Commonwealth Brigade saw 9 months of brutal fighting. From the Pusan pocket in the far south, up to the border with Communist China, the disparate units of the Brigade were welded together into an extremely potent fighting force. The Commonwealth troops faced North Koreans, Chinese Communists and the equally brutal ‘General Winter’, emerging from numerous battles as a well-respected and effective force. This book is the first book which looks at the composition of each of the five countries which made up the Commonwealth Brigade and describes their commonalities and differences as well as how they were brought together to form a single effective unit.

A TIMES BEST SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR''Superb . . . Deserves to become a classic of sporting literature'' DAVID KYNASTON''Absolutely fascinating and completely eye-opening - every page contains a gem'' MARINA HYDE''A sparkling history'' MATTHEW ENGELThe story of how the British shaped sport, and sport shaped the British. Sport is an enduring element of British life and culture. In all its variety, it touches on so many significant aspects of past and present: national identity, class, gender, the relationship between country and town, the rise of commerce, the evolution of ethical debate. Our sporting arenas have witnessed triumphs and heartbreaks that have become part of the national narrative.For a country so obsessed with the invention, playing and watching of sport, the story of how it has come to reflect us remains untold. David Horspool tracks each game as a driver of social change: horse-racing''s obsession with blood and money turned an aristocratic pastime into a national sport; boxing promoted opportunity for ethnic minorities, while simultaneously enforcing a regime of discrimination; golf rehearsed a perennial battle over Britain''s landscape; the football fan created an exuberant, often troubled culture at the centre of British life; and the Empire and Commonwealth Games ...

Austerity has been at the center of political controversy following the 2008 financial crisis, invoked by politicians and academics across the political spectrum as the answer to, or cause of, our post-crash economic malaise. However, despite being the cause of debate for more than three centuries, austerity remains a poorly understood concept. In this book, Suzanne J. Konzelmann aims to demystify austerity as an economic policy, a political idea, and a social phenomenon. Beginning with an analysis of political and socioeconomic history from the seventeenth century, she explains the economics of austerity in the context of the overall dynamics of state spending, tax, and debt. Using comparative case studies from around the world, ranging from the 1930s to post-2008, she then evaluates the outcomes of austerity in light of its stated objectives and analyzes the conditions under which it doesn’t – and occasionally does – work. This accessible introduction to austerity will be essential reading for students and scholars of political economy, economics, and politics, as well as all readers interested in current affairs.

This timely book debates the economic and political logic of the austerity policies that have been implemented in the UK and in the Eurozone since 2010 and asks whether there is any alternative for these countries in the years ahead. The work reconsiders the austerity versus stimulus debate through the voices of those who proposed the successful idea of expansionary austerity and those who opposed it. The editors have brought together a collection of articles written by some of the most notable figures in the discipline, including the likes of Alberto Alesina, Ken Rogoff, Tim Besley, David Graeber, Vince Cable, and Paul Krugman. The book also features the debate between Niall Ferguson and Robert Skidelsky. These leading thinkers unveil a world where economists are far from agreeing on economic policy, and where politics often dominates the discussion. The question of whether the British government should have opted for austerity runs through the book, as well as how sustained economic recovery should be encouraged in the future. Scholars, students and members of the general public with an interest in the financial crisis and its lingering aftermath will find this work invaluable.

There are many hundreds of stone circles around Britain. Most were built in the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age and they can be found throughout England, Wales and Scotland, although there are concentrations in the more remote and upland areas. It is not known for certain why they were built, but they are believed to have had a ritual or ceremonial purpose and are often aligned to the sun or moon, with many also being burial sites.In Stone Circles in Britain, author David J. Evans travels over Scotland, Wales and England, surveying not only famous sites such as Stonehenge and Avebury but many other lesser-known stone circles. This fascinating picture of an important legacy from Britain’s prehistory will be of interest to all those who have seen and visited these mysterious structures.

Období let 1951 – 1961 bylo pro pokračování historie Zvolenského leteckého pluku zvoleno záměrně. Je totiž významné přechodem na proudovou leteckou techniku a zároveň tím, že pluk byl od roku 1952 do roku 1961 součástí 1. lsd/sld. Rok 1951 přinesl převratné změny. Probíhaly přípravy na hromadné přezbrojení letectva proudovou technikou. K tomuto úkolu byla určena celá 3. ld, u jejíchž pluků proběhl pečlivý kádrový výběr pilotů pro přeškolení.

Noting the participating artists’ attunement to the “mobility and change that pervades their time,” McShine underscored their interest in “ways of rapidly exchanging ideas, rather than embalming the idea in an ‘object.’” Indeed, much of the work in the exhibition engaged mass-communications systems, such as broadcast television and the postal service, and addressed viewers directly, often encouraging their participation in return.The catalog, rather than merely document the show, functioned autonomously: it included a list of recommended reading, a chance-based index by critic Lucy Lippard, and individual artist contributions in the form of photographic documentation, textual description, drawings and diagrams—some relating to work in the exhibition and others to artworks as yet unrealized.

With new commentary, Austerity Bites 10 Years On assesses on the true scale of the damage austerity policies have inflicted on the country's most vulnerable groups, public institutions and on the wider society, reflecting on where we have been, where we are now and what needs to happen next to undo the damage and avoid the same mistakes again.

Sea squirts and sponges are found in most seafloor habitats around the coasts of Britain and Ireland. Despite being the dominant life forms in many areas, these two groups of under-recorded marine animals are often confused with one another, and most divers and snorkellers can recognise and name very few species. In fact, around 500 species of Ascidiacea (sea squirts) and Porifera (sponges) have been described so far in British and Irish seas, corresponding to over 4% of the world’s total. This book is recommended reading for anyone who wants to identify and discover more about these fascinating and diverse animals. Rather than relying on the characteristics of preserved specimens, this guide uses marine photography and detailed underwater observations to concentrate on in situ features, allowing you to record species without collecting them. Most sea squirts found in Britain and Ireland’s shallow waters are included, together with the most easily recognised sponges. Whether you are a student, a diver, a rockpooler or simply an enthusiast, this is an essential companion.● Over 115 species described in detail with in situ photographs to help with underwater recognition● Information on size, depth, habitat and distribution● Key distinguishing features and areas of confusion in ...

The two-and-a-half centuries after 1066 were momentous ones in the history of Britain. In 1066, England was conquered for the last time. The Anglo-Saxon ruling class was destroyed and and the English became a subject race, dominated by a Norman-French dynasty and aristocracy. This book shows how the English domination of the kingdom was by no means a foregone conclusion.The struggle for mastery in the book''s title is in reality the struggle for different masteries within Great Britain. The book weaves together the histories of England, Scotland and Wales in a new way and argues that all three, in their different fashions, were competing for domination

How do we choose between what is fair and just, and what our debtors demand of us? Yanis Varoufakis was put in such a dilemma in 2015 when he became the finance minister of Greece. In this rousing book, he charts the absurdities that underpin calls for austerity, as well as his own battles with a bureaucracy bent on ignoring the human cost of its every action. Passionately outspoken and tuned to the voices of the oppressed, Varoufakis presents a guide to modern economics, and its threat to democracy, like no other.

Politické procesy jsou v plném proudu, studená válka zuří na obou stranách železné opony. Jenže i v těch nejtemnějších časech existují střípky radosti. A tou největší je vždy příchod nového života.

Kniha približuje najzložitejšie obdobie živote Gustáva Husáka, ktoré začalo jeho zatknutím vo februári 1951 a končilo sa až po vyše deväťročnej "Kalvárii“ prepustením na slobodu. Husákovo zatknutie a odsúdenie malo širšie príčiny. Išlo o súbeh viacerých faktorov, o ktorých sa čitateľ dozvie práve v knihe. Rovnako sa dozvie, kedy a za akých okolnosti bol prepustený na slobodu. Ani potom však nemal kľudný život, keďže žil v postavení amnestovaného zločinca a musel zápasiť s rôznymi prekážkami ako človek druhej kategórie. Konečnú bodku za celou kauzou tzv. slovenského buržoázneho nacionalizmu, ktorá ho dostala do väzenia, dala až súdna a stranícka rehabilitácia v roku 1963. Gustáv Husák stál po svojom zatknutí doslova na krok od šibenice a rozhodovalo sa o jeho bytí a nebytí. V roku 1951 sa stal najhorším zločincom v republike, a pre neho i celú jeho rodinu sa začalo obdobie obrovského utrpenia, ktoré im navždy poznačilo životy. Manželka s dvomi malými synmi musela zápasiť o holú existenciu, zatiaľ čo on vo vyšetrovacej väzbe prechádzal peklom. Kruté vyšetrovanie, fyzické a psychické mučenie, pobyt na samotke. Ako jeden z mála sa na súde nepriznal k vymysleným obvineniam a bránil sa. Konečný verdikt znel doživotie.

In the weeks after the end of the War in May 1945, 156 U-boats surrendered to the Allies. Some of these either surrendered at sea or directly in a variety of ports, whilst the majority were taken over whilst moored in German bases in Norway, Denmark and France. Nine gave themselves up in the USA, Canada and Argentina. This book provides a comprehensive record of the surrender of all these vessels, and it also includes the story of the 200 or so U-boats which were scuttled, rather than surrendered, in the final days of the War. And it includes details of others which have been raised since and then either been used or scrapped. The author begins by describing the development of Allied policy in 1943, 1944 and early 1945 for the surrender and disposal of the German Navy and its surviving U-boats. It then explains the surrender arrangements, as well as the discussions concerning U-boats at the Potsdam Conference in July 1945 and by the Tripartite Naval Commission (TNC) in Berlin between August and December 1945. The uses and fates of all the surrendered U-boats are then described, particularly those which were formally allocated to the UK, the USA ... Unknown localization key: "more"

DVD dokumentární film Bombardéry Labutí píseň 1942 - 1945. Český dabing. Dolby Digital. Německá plováková letadla a létající čluny druhé světové války. Na tomto DVD se v mnoha zajímavých záběrech seznámíte s taktikou, výzbrojí a stále zoufalejší snahou německého bombardovacího letectva odvrátit blížící se porážku na všech frontách druhé světové války v letech 1942-1945. Poznáte nové verze již známých letadel typu He-111, Ju-88 a Do-17, jako byly například Ju-88B, Ju-188 a Do-217, i zcela nové typy, například Ju-288 a -388, He-177 Greif a jejich historii v obrazech. Uvidíte poutavé záběry ze zkoušek nových bombardovacích zbraní - řízených klouzavých protilodních pum Henschel Hs.293 s raketovým pohonem, vypouštěných z bombardovacích letadel Do-217 ještě před cílem, když se samotné německé bombardéry již ke spojeneckým lodím nedokázaly prodrat. Uvidíte vypuštění známé létající pumy V-1 z He-111, ale také neuvěřitelnou výměnu motoru a kola na Ju-88 v polních podmínkách kdesi v Rusku uprostřed kruté ruské zimy. A mnoho a mnoho dokumentárních záběrů z náletů a bombardování cílů, včetně záběrů následků na zemi. Uvidíte i žalostné zbytky bombardérů kdysi hrdé a mocné Luftwaffe, jak namísto pum na nepřítele shazují v předjaří 1945 svým obklíčeným vojskům kdesi v Polsku kontejnery s panzerfausty a zásobami, přičemž za sebou ...
