Description
The Coalition Effect: A Study of British Politics 2010-2015 In May 2010, the UK general election led to the formation of a coalition government - the first since the Second World War. This historic event marked a significant shift in British politics, with David Cameron and Nick Clegg pledging a 'new politics'. Five years on, a team of leading experts assesses the impact of this coalition across various policy areas. This book explores the key debates surrounding the coalition effect, including its role in party dealignment and the evolution of multi-party politics. It also examines whether the essential principles of Britain's uncodified constitution remained untroubled by the coalition government. The authors investigate whether the coalition was able to deliver on its promises made in the coalition agreement, and what consequences arose from this union for the country and the parties involved. By adopting a contemporary history approach, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of the coalition effect across a range of policy areas.
