Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Explores the places created and used to develop and manufacture many of the products that were portrayed as representing the rebirth of post-war Britain as a major industrial power. Notes that many of the new industries were based on technologies developed in the Second World War (including radar, jet and rocket engines, and military and civil atomic power) and that, politically, the World Wars had left a legacy of heavy government involvement in scientific research establishments and the state as the main customer for their products. Argues that this relationship was strengthened in the post-war decades as the development of high-tech weaponry was seen as one means of countering the growing threat from the Soviet Union and its allies. | ||
