Preferred term
Thatcherism
Definition
- Thatcherism, a term popularized in the 1980s, was initially used by political opponents of British prime minister Margaret Thatcher to derisively refer to the political philosophy, doctrine, and programs she introduced to the country from 1979 until 1990, when she resigned from office. The intent was to stigmatize Thatcher's programs, which her political enemies felt she advocated with great force and which they ultimately believed would lead to failure.
