THE CRISIS OF THE “THIRD WAY” CONCEPT AND PROMISING DIRECTIONS OF IDEOLOGICAL EVOLUTION OF THE BRITISH LABOUR PARTY

Abstract

The article has established that for a long time (1997–2007) the concept of the “third way” had demonstrated its political and electoral effectiveness as a model of ideological modernization of the LP. However, it did not allow the “New Labourites” to cope with the challenges posed by the Great Recession, which questioned the effectiveness of neoliberal approaches to economic policy (as a consequence, the LP lost the 2010 elections). It has been substantiated that this defeat had forced British Labourites to seek new strategies for the ideological renewal of the party. It has been determined that a promising direction for the further ideological evolution of the LP is the creation of a model, which will give the possibility to combine traditional and modern ideological attitudes of both the social-democrats and, partially, of their ideological opponents.
