Product Information

English local government is in a state of decline after 40 years of incremental but cumulative centralisation by central government. This book is the first to directly address this trend's impact upon the institution of local government, a crucial element in the democratic viability of a unitary state. The process of centralisation, and its corrosive effect on the status and responsibilities of local government, have been widely recognised and deplored among politicians and senior officers within local government, and by academics with an interest in this field. However, there has been no study exploring in detail its impact, and, equally important, suggesting ways in which the growing imbalance between the powers of central and local government should be rectified. This book fills this gap. This text will be of key interest to scholars, students and practitioners of local government, and more generally to those interested in what has been happening to British politics and governance.

Reviews
''Timely' is an overused word, but not in relation to this excellent book. The case for a more devolved and decentralised country is even stronger after the EU referendum vote. Power should not be hoarded in Westminster and Whitehall, but available at the sub-national level. Here is the reasoned case for a such a change.' - Tony Travers, London School of Economics, UK. 'The three leading scholars of English local government challenge us to recognise the substantial shift in authority from local communities to Westminster and Whitehall over recent decades. This book offers a rigorous critique of that centralisation and an alternative localist vision for the future governance of the UK. It is an essential read for anyone interested in giving communities new opportunities to shape their futures.' - Chris Skelcher, University of Birmingham, UK., ''Timely' is an overused word, but not in relation to this excellent book.

'The book is written by three towering figures in local government academia and provides a wide-ranging analysis of what currently ails local government. The book is a timely reminder for why we have local government and it provides a solid exploration of its purpose and contribution to the fabric of governance. The book unpicks the 'myth of localism' and provides comprehensive analysis of the changes necessary for local government to take its rightful place as a partner in government. A book for scholars, students, practitioners and policy-makers. It is with great sadness that Professor George Jones passed away before the publication of this book. But his contribution to it and academia is of great international renown. He will be missed.' - Colin Copus, De Montfort University, UK. 'It is an important book. It should be read by contemporary councillors, council officials, civil servants, parliamentarians and ministers, and by commentators. And it should be a rallying call for those of us who share its authors' passion for local government. It is also a great tribute to George Jones.' - John Tizard, Huffington Post UK., ''Timely' is an overused word, but not in relation to this excellent book.
