Pearson/Longman, 2004 - Political Science - 388 pages

The British polity has undergone a fundamental transformation in the last decade, and in 1998 this culminated in the most radical reform of the British state since its inception in 1707. Since 1998 devolution for Scotland and Wales and power sharing in Northern Ireland have fundamentally changed the balance of power between government at the center and the new territorial polities. Taking this profound change as its theme,Devolution in British Politicsis an up-to date, comprehensive and effective review of the origins and development of the devolution process.Devolution in British Politicsexamines the forces at work, both historical and contemporary, that are changing the British polity. It accounts for the emergence of the cultural and political movements in the 'other nations' that since the 1960s have demanded significant devolution of power from Whitehall and challenged the control by Westminster parties and political elites over territorial politics.Devolutiontraces the residual legacy of deep-seated cultural differences and persistent territorial interests that gave rise during the nineteenth century to political resistance to government from London, even to the idea of shared nationhood.For anyone interested in the recent history of Britain and the British Political system.
