thatcher s children blair s babies Political socialization and trickle down value change an age period and cohort analysis
British Journal of Political Science, 2017Co-Authors: Maria T Grasso, Stephen Farrall, Emily Gray, Colin Hay, Will JenningsAbstract:To what extent are new Generations ‘Thatcherite’? Using British Social Attitudes data for 1985–2012 and applying age-period-cohort analysis and generalized additive models, this article investigates whether Thatcher’s Children hold more right-authoritarian Political values compared to other Political Generations. The study further examines the extent to which the Generation that came of age under New Labour – Blair’s Babies – shares these values. The findings for Generation effects indicate that the later Political Generation is even more right-authoritarian, including with respect to attitudes to redistribution, welfare and crime. This view is supported by evidence of cohort effects. These results show that the legacy of Thatcherism for left-right and libertarian-authoritarian values is its long-term shaping of public opinion through Political socialization.

the effects of the 1960s Political Generation on former left and right wing youth activist leaders
Social Problems, 1991Co-Authors: Margaret M Braungart, Richard G BraungartAbstract:This study examines the impact of the 1960s Political Generation on former leaders of the left-wing Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and right-wing Young Americans for Freedom (YAF) in the 1980s. The principal issue under investigation is whether the consequences of Generational participation have been different for SDS and YAF leaders and for women leaders from both groups when compared to men. According to Generational theory, the 1960s Political Generation should have a lasting effect on its participants. However, alternative explanations that emphasize the importance of aging and period effects indicate that former activist leaders' lives and politics would change over time, with little significance attached to their youthful 1960s activist experiences. Based on life-history interviews in 1988 with 13 former SDS leaders and 11 YAF leaders, the findings of this study clearly suggest that Generational effects have a stronger influence on the lives and politics of both the left- and right-wing leaders than do aging or period effects. Some modifications occur in Political thinking and style, but the changing times have little impact on the leaders' adult lives. Several gender differences are identified in this study as well.
