How We’ve Changed: Social Trends from Post-War to Present Day and Beyond
Available to purchase in a limited-run printed format
Also available in electronic format for download
This is the second book in the Showcasing the Archive series, which is designed to demonstrate the richness of the material in the Archive of Market and Social Research.
If you are ever tempted to question the value of the AMSR, or to wonder why so many dedicated volunteers put so much time and energy into digitising and preserving the dusty relics of long-forgotten research projects, conferences and periodicals, this book should leave you in no doubt about the importance of the Archive and the many ways it can benefit researchers and academics, today and in the future.
The 12 topics we’ve chosen to explore range from the general, such as ‘Food’, to the specific, such as ‘Generational cohorts’, travelling via ‘Diversity’, ‘Green issues’ and ‘Happiness’ (to name a few examples). Whatever the commercial or social question, someone, somewhere has researched it and the Archive contains examples of work from across the spectrum, going back as far as the 1950s.
‘How We’ve Changed: Social Trends from Post-War to Present Day and Beyond’ is available as an 84-page book in A4 perfect-bound format, priced to cover our costs and include an optional donation to AMSR. It’s also available to download free as a fully-featured PDF.
In both cases we would urge you to consider making a small donation to AMSR in recognition of the volunteer effort that has gone into preparing these publications.
