Devolution in the Uk, Paperback / softback Book

Devolution in the Uk Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This book explains devolution today in terms of the evolution of past structures of government in the component parts of the United Kingdom.

Available in paperback for the first time, it highlights the importance of the English dimension and the role that England’s territorial politics played in constitutional debates.

Similarities and differences between how the components of the UK were governed are described.

It argues that the UK should be understood now, even more than pre-devolution, as a state of distinct unions, each with its own deeply rooted past and trajectory.

Using previously unpublished primary material, as well as a wealth of secondary work, the book offers a comprehensive account of the territorial constitution of the UK from the early twentieth century through to the operation of the new devolved system of government. -- .
