The Long Weekend: Britain Between the Wars (1918-39)

The interval between the world wars spanned less than twenty-one years. Nevertheless, it represented an era of rapid and dramatic changes in Britain, which included much-needed social reform, realignment of the political parties, economic depression, mass unemployment, the onset of imperial decline, and the growth of international tension. Described by contemporaries as ‘The Long Weekend’, the brevity of the inter-war period cannot conceal its enduring importance, which this course will analyse and assess.
