Overview

"Ilaria Favretto presents a detailed study which traces the origins of the Third Way by comparing the European Left's contemporary neo-revisionism with past revisionist attempts. Focusing its analysis on the British Labour Party and the Italian Left, ""The Long Search for a Third Way"" provides interpretations and insights into the histories of both parties. The book should be accessible not only to students and scholars, but also to the general reader interested in contemporary European politics."
