Title	Liberal Party from Asquith to Ashdown, 1912–1988
Description	See how war and alliances shaped the Liberal Party. These papers begin two years before H. H. Asquith took Britain into World War 1 and conclude with David Steel's leadership of the Liberal Democrats. These records cover both internal discussions and the changing nature of electoral campaigning during the 20th century. Internal records cover the Party's decline and how it recovered from the brink of destruction. These papers reveal how the Liberals related to Labour during the Lib-Lab Pact. They also cover how the Liberals worked with the SDP as the Liberal-SDP Alliance. General Election literature then reveals social challenges of the day through its attempts to address them. Taken as a whole, this collection reveals how electioneering became the strategic and data-led practice that it is today.
