Sommario/riassunto

Concerned with the civil services of the United Kingdom, this book examines their characteristics and trends since 1970. It assesses the UK's changing civil services in the wake of two decades of public sector management reforms and New Labour's constitutional reform programme, devolution to Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
