The Journal
The written strand of the series.
Archive material — image to be supplied
The Journal publishes what film and audio cannot hold: original essays, archival photography, and the research that sits underneath every episode.
It is for readers who want the working. The balance sheet from the year everything changed. The correspondence between a founder and a minister. The minutes of the board meeting where the decision was made.
It also carries the wider picture — the sectors that transformed, the ideas that travelled, and the connections between institutions that never knew they were part of the same story.
Written by our research team and by invited historians, economists and journalists. Published continuously through the release period, and free to read.
