The ways in which Britain changed after the Second World War

Britain changed in a number of ways following the Second World War; most of these were permanent and major changes.

A great deal of social and cultural change took place with the influence of the 'Baby Boomer' generation. A good explanation of why this period was a turning point in British history will use knowledge from across this unit.
