Description and Table of Contents
Description
Designed as a follow-up to the same editors' successful book The Future of Local Government, Local Government in the 1990s provides a definitive and up-to-date account of the major changes which have taken place in the organisation, management and key areas of service delivery in UK local government under Thatcher and Major, and a range of interpretations of likely future developments. Reviewer's comments on the predecessor volume: 'Against a background of frenetic legislative activity The Future of Local Government is a most welcome [and]...stimulating book and one which should form the basis of a much-needed discussion about the future direction of local government in the country.' Michael Thrasher, Political Studies
