Title: Power, Persistence and Change : A Second Study of Banbury
Description: London, RKP 1975 xii, 196pp, 16pp publisher's catalogue 22x15, green cloth, glt txt, illustrated dw Very good in similar dw Follow up study to Margaret Stacey's famous 'Tradition and Change', published in 1960. The original research was done in the late 1940s and early 1950s, as the small Oxfordshire market town expanded to absorb new residents. This follow up catches a vision of town that had changed dramatically; particularly interesting was the repeated finding that local ties and associations were increasingly less significant to lives of the town's people than national and even international factors. A fascinating microcosm of a fundamental shift in society.
