Why has a system of government - the envy of the world as recently as the 1970s - developed so many defects? Why is there such a gulf between political classes, who seem to believe the position satisfactory or inevitable, and the general public, increasingly disaffected by politics and government? This book argues that the defects are not attributable to one political party. Some factors are outside politicians' control: the globalization of economic activity; the changes in international politics after the end of Soviet Russia; the adverse consequences of more dominating and competitive media. Some other factors are widely recognized: the decline of the cabinet and the marginalizing of Parliament; the influence of spin on our political culture; the increased role of political and special advisers. But others are not as well understood. Among them are the decline in the authority of many ministers, the undermining of the constitutional position and consequent effectiveness of the civil service, the fragmentation of government and the public sector into a mass of bodies with complex but ill-defined relations between them, and the ramifying of a system of government which, despite its protestations, is less interested in delivering results than managing news. The book traces these developments, especially over the last 25 years, but most intensively since 1997. It looks to a major change in the ways of government. It doubts whether a change of prime minister or party would remove current defects. It considers other possible alternatives, particularly a constitutional change to a 'presidential' system of government, or the introduction of a legal constitution. It concludes by arguing that, although venturing in new and untried directions might seem attractive, improvement - radical improvement - of the system we have is more likely to achieve better government and restore public confidence 517 3 $aBritish government in crisis 517 3 $aThird English revolution 606 $2Constitutional & administrative law 607 $aGreat Britain$xPolitics and government$y1979-1997 607 $aGreat Britain$xPolitics and government$y1997- 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a320.941 700 $aFoster$b Christopher D.$011753 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450802103321 996 $aBritish government in crisis, or, The third English revolution$92452903 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04607nam 22009135 450 001 9910782659303321 005 20220422183609.0 010 $a1-281-97590-7 010 $a9786611975906 010 $a0-230-58249-4 024 7 $a10.1057/9780230582491 035 $a(CKB)1000000000707377 035 $a(EBL)416857 035 $a(OCoLC)314773461 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001657270 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)16439269 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001657270 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)14986952 035 $a(PQKB)10062183 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000117168 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12034400 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000117168 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10043015 035 $a(PQKB)11276886 035 $a(DE-He213)978-0-230-58249-1 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC416857 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000707377 100 $a20151127d2008 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aCan Schools Save Indigenous Languages? $ePolicy and Practice on Four Continents /$fedited by Nancy H.
