The rise and fall of New Labour
The era of Labour hegemony is over. How should we assess its legacy?
Anthony Giddens offers a compelling analysis of the Blair-Brown years and calls for Labour's ideological reconstruction to focus on building a form of responsible capitalism, coupled with a sophisticated approach to issues of sustainability.
Anthony Giddens is a former director of the London School of Economics and a Labour peer.
