The Labour government's modernization proposals for local
government promise to bring about a new era of local democracy
through which local authorities are more in touch with their
citizens. Plans to increase electoral turnout, pioneer new modes of
public participation and introduce new "cabinet style" political
management arrangements are all converging to redefine the nature
of local democracy in the UK. How are local authorites responding
to this modernization agenda, and what problems face those who
would reform local democracy?
This study includes a contribution from the main architect of the
modernization agenda, Local Government Minister Hilary Armstrong
MP, as well as research on various features of democratic renewal
taking shape in local government.
