1937-1979 was a distinctive period in the political history of Wales. It began with a demand by MPs from all parties that a secretary of state be appointed, and ended in 1979 with the referendum on a Welsh assembly, the 'end of an era' in the words of Lord Cledwyn. This book shows how devolution was an issue in Welsh politics during the period.
This examination of Welsh political history in the mid-20th century reveals how large a role devolution played during this period as well as how the British government responded, and eventually conceded, to devolutionists demands. Among the topics discussed are the Labour Partys regard for Wales, the various nationalist challenges posed by the partys dominance in the later years, and key developments such as the 1951 appointment of a minister for Welsh affairs.
