Synopsis
British government and politics today is a complex and fast-changing mix of the traditional and the new. This book replaces Contemporary British Politics and provides a concise, but definitive introduction to Britain's developing political institutions and processes. It explains in simple language the domestic and global pressures that have both helped to transform British politics and placed a question mark against the very future of the British state in its current form. Well-presented, including illustrations, charts and comparative boxes, the book has been comprehensively rewritten throughout, and includes coverage of the 2005 General Election.
