Through a unique dataset covering half a century of policy-making
in Britain, this book traces how topics like the economy,
international affairs, and crime have changed in their importance
to government. The data concerns key venues of decision-making -
the Queen's Speech, laws and budgets - which are compared to the
media and public opinion. These trends are conveyed through
accessible figures backed up by a series of examples of important
policies. As a result, the book throws new light on the key points
of change in British politics, such as Thatcherism and New Labour
and explores different approaches to agenda setting helping to
account for these changes: incrementalism, the issue attention
cycle and the punctuated equilibrium model. What results is the
development of a new approach to agenda setting labelled focused
adaptation whereby policy-makers respond to structural shifts in
the underlying pattern of attention.
