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? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eExploring the political culture of these extraordinary years, \u003cem\u003eParties and People\u003c\/em\u003e shows that class became one of the principal determinants of political behaviour, although its influence was often surprisingly weak. McKibbin 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.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.51 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 15, 2011\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45775456633029,"sku":"9780199605170","price":76.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/R6HPqSyP3B9780199605170.webp?v=1770534625","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/parties-and-people-england-1914-1951-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
