Downing Street Years


This first volume of Margaret Thatcher's memoirs, which encompasses the whole of her time as Prime Minister. Margaret Thatcher is the towering figure of late-twentieth-century British politics. No other prime minister of modern times has sought to change Britain and its place in the world as radically as she did. This is the story of her remarkable life in her own words. This first volume of her memoirs is a riveting first-hand portrait of the events and personalities of her eleven years in power. She recalls the triumphs and the critical moments of her premiership -- the Falklands War, the miners' strike, the Brighton bomb, the Westland Affair and her unprecedented three election victories. Her judgements of the men and women she encountered, whether world statesmen or Cabinet colleagues, are astonishingly frank. She is lavish with praise where it is due; devastating with criticism when it is not. The book reaches a gripping climax with an hour-by-hour description from inside 10 Downing Street of her dramatic final days in office. Margaret Thatcher's compelling account stands as a powerful testament to her extraordinary legacy.

Statecraft


A collection of the former Prime Minister's speeches and articles, 'Statecraft' brought Margaret Thatcher's unrivalled political experience to bear on the challenges of the early new millennium. Margaret Thatcher's influence on modern politics continues to be undeniable, controversial and unmatched by any other statesman or woman. In 'Statecraft', Britain's first ever female Prime Minister discussed the dangers and opportunities of the new millennium. In her own words, it is a book about our future: 'In this age of spin-doctors and sound bites, the ever-present danger is that leaders will follow fashion and not their instincts and beliefs. That was not how the West won the Cold War, not how we created the basis for today's freedom and prosperity. If we wish to make our achievements secure for our children and grandchildren, the West must stay vigilant and strong. In this book it will be my purpose to show that it can - and must - be done.'

Életem - Margaret Thatcher


"Európa első női vezetője megingathatatlan hitei mellett kiálló politikusként nyerte el a Vaslady nevet. Margaret Thatcher volt az egyetlen brit miniszterelnök Churchillen kívül, akinek a temetésén az angol királynő is megjelent. A belpolitika terén egy sor hosszú távú hatással bíró reform kötődik a nevéhez, melyek közül nem egy ma is megosztja az elemzőket. Nevéhez fűződik az angol piac liberalizációja, a szabadpiaci elvek érvényesítése a gazdaságpolitikában az addigi nagyfokú állami gazdasági szerepvállalás ellenében. Ebben nagyon hasonló álláspontot képviselt, mint kortársa-barátja, Ronald Reagan amerikai elnök. Külpolitikában a kelet-közép európai ellenzéki mozgalmakat erősen támogatva hozzájárult a Szovjetunió európai végelgyengüléséhez. Walesa lengyel ellenzéki mozgalma és a magyar reformtörekvések mellett is kiállt, 1984-ben járt is Magyarországon. Az 1989-90-es rendszerváltozásokat üdvözölte. Az európaiság kérdésében inkább szkeptikus volt: az Európai Közösséget, az EU elődjét elsősorban gazdasági együttműködésként ítélte hasznosnak, a föderalista álláspontot azonban elvetette. "

On Europe


First published in her pioneering treatise Statecraft, the opinions and projections of the former Prime Minister on Europe remain potent and resoundingly prophetic.Margaret Thatcher foresaw the European Union as a swelling superstate, gradually eroding Britain's freedom. Irreparable and doomed, European integration did not allow for the birthright of nationhood. It was the most recent incarnation of an idea that has been tried many times before, and the outcomes were far from happy. "During my lifetime," she says, "most of the problems the world has faced have come, in one fashion or other, from mainland Europe, and the solutions from outside it."
