Blair Revolution Revisited

by Peter Mandelson

Originally published in 1996 as The Blair Revolution , this work by British Labour MP Mandelson is only technically "revisited" with the addition of an introduction that touts the benefits for the British electorate of Tony Blair's "third way" political strategy. The rest of the text is an exact reproduction of the 1996 work in which Mandelson argues that Labour's capitulation to global capital will be good for the party and for Britain itself.
