The Politics of Local Government Paperback / softback
by Gerry Stoker
Part of the Public Policy and Politics series
Paperback / softback
Description
The comprehensively revised second edition of this successful text provides an up-to-date analysis of the changing world of local politics in Britain.
Substantial new sections have been added on local political parties, hung councils, the politics of non-elected local government, recent developments in privatisation, and the politics of the poll tax.
The book now provides a systematic treatment of the Thatcher legacy in local politics, the philosophy and strategy which underpinned it and likely futures in the post-Thatcher era.
Reviews of the 1st edition: '...should be read by anyone seeking to understand local government and its possible futures.' George Jones, Local Government Chronicle '...an excellent and stimulating introductory text.' Peter McLaverty, Sociological Review
