Originally published in 1993, An Agenda for Britain offers a radical vision for the future of Britain and the Labour Party. Unemployment, Frank Field argues, must be the major issue on the political agenda; welfare should be taken ‘out of the ghetto’ and made part of the debate about Britain’s economic and industrial future; and employees should have much greater control over their own pension capital. The adoption of this reforming agenda is, he believes, essential if the Labour Party is to be elected to govern the country again.
An Agenda for Britain proposes a fundamental reorientation of the Labour Party's platform to address critical national issues.
Originally published in 1993, An Agenda for Britain presents a reformist vision for the Labour Party, focusing on unemployment, welfare, and pension capital. The book argues that these issues must be central to the party's agenda for it to regain governmental power. The 2016 republication suggests a continued relevance of Field's arguments for contemporary political discourse. The work positions itself as a foundational text for understanding a specific strand of Labour Party policy development.
