En este fascinante análisis, Robert Skidelsky examina el siglo XX británico, un período en el que Gran Bretaña perdió un imperio, participó en dos guerras mundiales, fundó el estado de bienestar y enfrentó turbulencias económicas y cambios tecnológicos. El autor evalúa los recursos materiales, políticos, culturales y morales que Gran Bretaña aportó al siglo XX, y analiza el impacto de figuras como Lloyd George, Churchill, Thatcher y Blair. A pesar de los eventos cataclísmicos, la sociedad británica es más democrática y tolerante, aunque la desigualdad de riqueza e ingresos persiste. Skidelsky reflexiona sobre la naturaleza del éxito y el futuro del país.
Robert Jacob Alexander Skidelsky, Baron Skidelsky, was a British economic historian, author and crossbench life peer in the House of Lords. He is best known for his award-winning three-volume biography of John Maynard Keynes, regarded as the definitive study of the economist's life and work. Educated at Jesus College, Oxford, he held academic posts in history and political economy at several universities and was Emeritus Professor of Political Economy at the University of Warwick. Beyond academia, Skidelsky was influential in British public policy debates, serving as the founding chairman of the Social Market Foundation and writing extensively on economics, fiscal policy, and the political implications of technological change.
