The Thatcher Phenomenon

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

A series of six programmes 3: Good Housekeeping
Mrs Thatcher has worshipped economic gurus, but usually discusses the national economy in homely terms. To what extent is 'Thatcherism' her own creation?
Hugo Young examines her attitude to economists, entrepreneurs and trade unionists, and reckons the balance-sheet of success and failure as calculated by those who admire and deplore her policies.
