This title was first published in 2001: In this compelling work,
Matthew Flinders examines how far alternative forms of
accountability have evolved and the extent to which they remedy the
current shortcomings of the parliamentary system. Adopting a
pluralistic perspective, this exploration of the accountability of
the core executive is clearly grounded in research methodology,
thus ensuring the book makes a valid, incisive contribution to the
literature. Features include: - A detailed study of the location of
power and mechanisms of accountability in modern government which
challenges the largely prosaic existing literature - Useful
summaries of the key tensions and trends within constitutional
infrastructure - A new and refreshing approach to the study of
central government - Insightful critiques of major governmental
policies This intriguing volume will be of interest to
undergraduates, post-graduates and lecturers for courses on
legislative studies, central government reform, public
administration, British politics and research methods.
