Summary: David Coates offers a balanced assessment of New Labour's domestic record and interrogates the problems that it inherited and the progress that the Party has made in tackling Britain's social and economic problems. Prolonged Labour is a comprehensive, scholarly and balanced account of New Labour's domestic policies in its first two terms in office. It mobilizes ministerial speeches, elite interviews and policy documents, plus the best available, contemporary scholarship and political journalism, to build an accurate and full account of New Labour in power. It then subjects that record to systematic and sympathetic evaluation. Prolonged Labour is an invaluable guide to Government performance since 1997, and as such an essential tool for students and voters alike.
