内容説明
An introductory type text, complete with summaries at the end of each section, that provides basic facts about theories and theorists, making this a valuable read for students who may be new to political theory but also teachers looking for a concise way to present some complex topics. This book examines critically a range of key practices of politics and power in the UK today. The focus is on issues of continuity and change in the dynamics of power, participation and accountability. Chapters explore government at the centre and the analytical tools that help us to understand it, the historical roots and contemporary politics of devolution, shifting patterns of political participation and dissent, the importance of networks, and the character of constitutional change. There is a distinctive emphasis on the analytical tools and models that can help us to understand politics and power in the UK. No previous knowledge of the subject is assumed as the authors provide an introductory treatment of each of the topics addressed.Key Features * An introduction to the government of the UK * Covers devolution, participation, policy networks, and constitutional change * Explains the analytical tools and models required to understand politics and power in the UK
