Affiche du document Conservative Consensus? — Conservative Consensus?

104 pages. Temps de lecture estimé 1h18min.
New Labour would like to portray 1997 as a new beginning for public policy, but Peter King argues that we now have, in housing and in other areas of public policy, a consensus based on Thatcherite reforms. He explores the particularly conservative understanding of housing that transformed public attitudes in the 1980s and 1990s, and the impact it still has on policy. This book is written with non-housing specialists in mind, and will be of interest to students of housing, urban studies, public policy and politics, at both undergraduate and higher levels.

To call someone a reactionary is to insult them and to end any argument. There is no possible rejoinder: no one could possibly wish to be a reactionary. But what if one were to gratefully accept the label? What would it mean to wilfully and honestly be a reactionary? Referencing thinkers as diverse as Burke, de Maistre, Guenon, Ratzinger, Scruton and the Prince of Wales this book considers the nature of reaction as a justified response to modernity and the constant call for change. Reaction is shown to take two distinct forms: first, as a rejection of progress and a defence of traditional culture and values; and second, as a common sense disquiet and distaste towards elites. These are seen as entirely valid responses to the failure of modernity. 'Reaction' presents an original and thoughtful critique of modernity and a defence of tradition. It will be of interest to anyone concerned that we are heading too far and too quickly in the wrong direction.

En 2065, la plus grande confusion règne sur notre planète. Seuls les plus résistants des humains vivent encore dans un univers de désolation dominé par l'ennemi absolu : de mystérieux fantômes qui se nourrissent en extrayant l'énergie de toute forme de vie terrestre. Le futur de notre espèce repose sur le courage et la volonté de quelques-uns. Déjouant les complots, évitant les pièges, ils doivent reconquérir la Terre en usant de toutes les magies. Deux clans s'opposent sur la manière la plus efficace d'éliminer les spectres : les premiers, commandés par un général belliqueux, souhaitent utiliser une arme de destruction totale ; les autres, conduits par le docteur Aki Ross, s'engagent dans une voie difficile : la reconstitution d'un rythme spirituel qui devrait chasser les fantômes et protéger les êtres vivants. L'aventure est risquée, mais ils n'ont plus rien à perdre.
