Developments in British Politics by Patrick Dunleavy

Bringing together a set of specially commissioned chapters by leading authorities, this book provides an accessible introduction to politics and political change in the UK. It provides a systematic assessment of New Labour in government focusing in particular on continuities and contrasts between its first and second terms and with traditional social democracy. A central innovation is the concept of multi-focal politics to explain the consequences of globalization, Europeanization and devolution for the nature and distribution of power in the UK.
