NEW BRITISH POLITICS 3RD EDITION

This revised and updated third edition of the highly praised The New British Politics offers a lively, authoritative and comprehensive introduction to current British politics. Written by internationally-known specialists from the top politics department in the UK, the book combines incisive and original analysis with clear and direct presentation, specially tailored to the needs of lecturers, teachers and students of British politics from A-level to second year university.

The new edition consolidates the strengths of the original text through: -

Comprehensive coverage of all topics likely to arise on a course in British politics
Chapters written by specialists to support essays and projects in each area
Special Briefings, Milestones and Glosses to provide background to the text
Updated analysis of the role of Britain in the world, especially the ‘special relationship with the US, and relations with Europe
Full review of devolution in Scotland, Wales and London after its first four years
Special chapter on Ireland
Full coverage of areas such as local government, police and law, passed over in most texts
Strong policy content with individual chapters on the environment, welfare, equal opportunities, gender and race

The New British Politics has an innovative design to enhance teaching and learning. Each chapter starts with a preview and ends with a summary of the discussion. This is consolidated through a summary table of important events in the field (Milestones). Briefings in each chapter provide an easy way for gaining an in-depth background to the general discussion. Key terms are defined in the margins. Projects and essays are suggested at the end of each chapter. These form a basis for class exercises and a focus for summary revision. There are annotated guides to further reading and useful websites.

The book’s own companion website provides examples of good and bad essay writing, multiple choice questions, updates on political events, projects and essays – all designed to stimulate ideas and discussion. Lively cartoons and photographs illusstrate and enliven textual discussion.

The authors: Ian Budge, Ivor Crewe and David McKay are Professors of Government at the University of Essex, where Ivor Crewe is also Vice Chancellor. Ken Newton is a former colleague now at the University of Southampton. Specially commissioned chapters have been contributed by Nigel South and Albert Weale, also of Essex. All the authors are internationally-known specialists in their field, with many publications to their credit.
