Understanding politics, understandings understanding British and European political issues

Abstract

This book has been produced to serve a number of needs. Most importantly, there is always a need to bring students and teachers of politics up to date with the great political issues of the day. By their nature, such issues are constantly changing in character, the political agenda is moving on and critical events can change the political landscape. This book, therefore, seeks to review the state of political issues early in the twenty-first century, when New Labour is in its second term of office.
