Paperback. Condición: New. This volume reflects on two decades of Welsh devolution, and a contributes to debate on its significance and future course. Drawing on previously unpublished interviews undertaken by the late Professor Michael Sullivan with key protagonists in Welsh devolution, and with expert analysis from leading researchers in different disciplines and fields of policy, the book examines what has been described as the emergence through devolution of a 'Welsh stripe' in social democracy. While the volume editors conclude this epithet, coined by Professor Sullivan, is apt, this collection of essays also presents a complex, multi-faceted picture of the drivers of policy, of continuity from the pre-devolution era, as well as change driven by factors within and without Wales. A mixed picture emerges, featuring variously (and in various combinations of) boldness of ambition, distinctive ideological positioning, homegrown priority-setting, the frustrations of the devolution settlement, and adverse (arguably unfair) international comparisons.…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Policy experts reflect on the first twenty years of self-governance in Wales. Following a 1997 referendum, the United Kingdom established the Welsh Parliament and began a process known as devolution, granting Wales increasing powers of self-governance over the next twenty years. This collection reflects on the course of Welsh devolution and the emergence of a so-called Welsh stripe in social democracy. Drawing on previously unpublished interviews with key participants in Welsh devolution, contributors analyze a range of policy areas and reveal a complex picture of political change and continuity throughout the country. The Impact of Welsh Devolution offers an essential starting point for thinking about the future of Wales in the twenty-first century. This book is about the impact of Welsh devolution on public policy. It examines how, from a fragile beginning, distinct political institutions and ideological position have made their mark not only in Wales but also in the UK and wider world.

Hardback. Condición: New. Dafydd Elis-Thomas, Lord Elis-Thomas of Nant Conwy, was one of the outstanding Welsh public figures of the last fifty years. His political career spanned from first election to Westminster as a Plaid Cymru MP in 1974, to his retirement from the Senedd in Cardiff in 2021, having served as a minister in the Welsh Government. He was the first Presiding Officer of the National Assembly for Wales, stabilising the new institution and embedding devolution during its first tentative decade, and was described as a 'true giant' and the 'founding father' of Welsh devolution following his death in 2025. Elis-Thomas was also a controversial and magnetic character, whose life and work is captured in this biography - branded a 'maverick', an 'intellectual acrobat' and a 'political chameleon', he was labelled a 'terrorist' for his interventions in Northern Ireland, and a 'traitor' for oppositional stances adopted towards nationalism. Despite a career often marked by controversy and fearless passion, his unique vision and perseverance was central to the creation of Wales's first legislative parliament. …

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. This book provides the first thorough analysis of the extent of the opposition to World War I in Wales and the most extensive regional study of the antiwar movement in any part of Britain. Aled Eirug focuses on the two main elements of the antiwar movement: the religious opposition on grounds of pacifism and the role of the Fellowship of Reconciliation; and the political opposition concentrated in the Independent Labour Party and the left within the South Wales Miners Federation. With detailed original research, this book offers unprecedented knowledge provided about the conscientious objectors from Wales during World War I. This is the first book to describe and analyse the anti-war movement in Wales, and provides an insight into the two main strands of opposition to the war on religious and political grounds. This work details the breadth of anti-war activity and, for the first time, reveals and analyses the 900 conscientious objectors identified in Wales.

Paperback. Condición: New. This study is the first thorough analysis of the extent of the opposition to the Great War in Wales, and is the most extensive study of the anti-war movement in any part of Britain. It is, therefore, a significant contribution to our understanding of people's responses to the conflict, and the difficulty of mobilising the population for total war. The anti-war movement in Wales and beyond developed quickly from the initial shock of the declaration of war, to the civil disobedience of anti-war activists and the industrial discontent excited by the Russian Revolution and experienced in areas such as the south Wales coalfield in 1917. The differing responses to the war within Wales are explored in this book, which charts how the pacifist tradition of nineteenth-century Welsh Nonconformity was quickly overturned. The two main elements of the anti-war movement are analysed in depth: the pacifist religious opposition, the Fellowship of Reconciliation, and the Nonconformist dissidents who were particularly influential in north and west Wales; and the political opposition concentrated in the Independent Labour Party and among the radical left within the South Wales Miners' Federation.…
