->''"The questioner was mystified. She just ''knew'' that all war was bad somehow, and though, from [[WorldWarII firsthand experience]], I incline to her view, I did suggest that it was not such a good thing for her--or for anyone--to be so unaware of history...

The 1980s, even in their longest sense, have ended, sure. But if a coherent "next step" from Thatcherism exists we remain, at the time of writing, too in the middle of it to define its edges."''
