This is a straightforward introduction to devolution in all four
countries of the UK. This book provides an introduction to the
major changes in the political landscape of the UK caused by the
political devolution of power to London, Scotland, Wales and
Northern Ireland. There is extensive examination of the historical
background to these changes with an even more detailed focus upon
contemporary political events. The book also helps those wishing to
understand devolution by explaining its development, and assessing
the operation, strengths and weaknesses of the devolved state.
Throughout the text there are relevant examples used which
illustrate the application of more complex ideas and terms, and a
balanced picture is presented which takes in the views of
federalists, unionists and nationalists. It defines and assesses
legislative, executive and administrative devolution across the UK.
It considers the impact of devolved bodies on policy and
legislative outcomes. It examines the current and likely future
impact of the devolved bodies. It details the relationship between
the devolved bodies and the Westminster government. It explores the
extent to which the system of government in the UK as a whole has
changed. It places political developments in their social, economic
and cultural contexts.
