Abstract

In this article, the author explains the need for Great Britain's Labour Party to adjust to the social changes taking place in 1960 in order to succeed in elections. While the author is supportive of the party's strong relationship with British trade unions and the working-class, he argues that changes in education and social structure, particularly an increase in professional employment and a growing middle class, require Labour to appeal to other groups.
