Attlee's Labour Governments 1945-51
The Labour governments of 1945-51 are among the most important and controversial in modern British history, and have been the focus of extensive research over the last fifteen years. In this study, Robert Pearce makes the results of this research available in a concise and accessible form, whilst encouraging students to formulate their own interpretations. He looks at the main political personalities of the period, sets their work in the context of Labour history since 1900, and examines their domestic, foreign and imperial achievements.
The Development of International Business
In this wide-ranging and groundbreaking new book, Robert Pearce provides an analytically-informed basis for understanding the modern multinational enterprise. It does this by tracing the development over the past half-century of two parallel strands of analysis in International Business; designated as the 'theoretical' and the 'practical'.The book shows how the practical restructuring of the MNE as an organisational form has responded to changes in the wider global economy and how this evolution has interfaced with the enriching of the relevant theorising. By tracing the persisting dynamics of.

Fascism and Nazism
Fascism was of profound significance for Europe between 1918 and 1945. It spread throughout the continent and dominated several states, with almost incalculable consequences. Yet fascism is also one of the most problematic issues in modern history. How is the term best defined? How far was fascism a political ideology, and how far merely a style of rule? Why did fascism spread so rapidly, and exactly which regimes should be called fascist? In particular, should Nazi Germany be classified as a fascist state, or do the differences between the Hitler and Mussolini regimes outweigh their similarities? Blending research with accessible narrative, the author aims to provide a thought-provoking and readable introdcution to this key theme of 20th-century history.
Attlee
Attlee is undoubtedly one of the key figures in modern British history. An important figure in Churchill's War Cabinet, and premier of the first majority Labour Government, he created the Welfare State, nationalised a substantial part of industry and secured the independence of India. Yet his political stature remains unresolved. Was he Churchill's "modest man with much to be modest about" who squandered the fruits of victory, or, as many now claim, one of the truly great prime ministers? Robert Pearce's lucid and drily amusing study goes behind the stern exterior to find ambition and indecision, and a uniquely moral vision.
