country ruled by the interplay of various forces: central

government structures (eg. the new Mayoral system), greater
regional autonomy as well as the EU and transnational businesses
and organizations. developing an anthropological epistemology and
an ethnographic account of the governance narrative and decentres
British political science and British government. It addresses
concerns that the interpretative approach risks neglecting the

historical context of British political science. - compare their
approach to British political science with others including,

account of governance as the context for ethnographic analyses of
governance in action. - deliver studies of the consumers of public
