The old ideas of the centrally planned state have collapsed - their ruins all too evident in the story of Eastern Europe in 1989. In Britain and all over the world the individual has emerged as a new force. Social welfare, the market, education and training - what should be the role of the state in these areas? And above all, what should national sovereignty mean for Britain in the 1990s?
In this series of four programmes, John Lloyd explores the new ideas that will determine the politics of the next decade.
