Debating the Constitution: New Perspectives on Constitutional Reform - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

Constitutional reform is one of the most important issues in British politics, drawing in contributions from many diverse areas. This wide-ranging volume, published in association with Charter 88, provides a source-book for the controversy. The debate over the constitution, the contributors show, is at the core of many vital concerns in the political arena. This book goes beyond the classical debates on legal powers to deal with such issues as the relationship between the constitution and economic development, European integration, gender and race. Debating the Constitution shows that for the UK to become a modern European democracy, all kinds of institutions will have to change fundamentally: in style, composition and culture.
