"Swinging Sixties". Příspěvek k sociálnímu a ekonomickému vývoji Velké Británie v šedesátých letech 20. století

This thesis is analysing economic and social development of Great Britain in the sixties of 20th century, so-called Swinging Sixties. War period changed the position of the empire in the world. Next twenty years had meant for Great Britain major changes not only in economic area but also in social development. In my thesis I deal with a dramatic changes in society in this period, based on the growth of living standards of the population. Conversion of society into consumer society supported changes in the structure of expenditure and therefore household consumption. Generally, the social revolution had an impact not only on the behavior and thinking of the population, but also on the labor market or criminality. In this work I analyze not only the social revolution, but also the economic situation that underlies. This period is characterized by relative economic growth, low unemployment, but increasing inflation.
