Description
The Core Executive in Britain by Martin J. Smith provides a fresh perspective on the power dynamics within the British core executive. By exploring the concept of 'power dependence', Smith challenges traditional approaches to understanding the relationship between the Prime Minister, Cabinet, and civil service. This book offers a nuanced assessment of power and policy in British politics, revealing that power is often a complex interplay between actors and institutions.
