内容説明
This text offers an introduction to British politics, as well as a critical assessment of some of the major aspects of the British system - class, the monarchy, the obsession with secrecy, and the concentration and centralization of power. Attention is also paid to individual political figures, especially Prime Ministers, since some institutional questions are very much influenced by the characteristics of particular leaders. In addition, there is a comparative UK/US feature, which is fully integrated into the text.
