Description

The UK's Changing Democracy: A 2018 Democratic Audit presents a comprehensive assessment of the quality of democracy in the United Kingdom. Following the 2016 EU referendum, the country underwent significant democratic reforms, including devolution and changes to electoral systems. This book provides an in-depth analysis of these developments, examining their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The authors evaluate the impact of Brexit on UK governance, as well as other recent trends such as the revival of two-party dominance and the disruptive effects of social media. With 37 short chapters, each starting with clear criteria for what democracy requires in a particular context, this book offers a nuanced understanding of the current state of British politics. By providing a SWOT analysis of the UK's democracy, this publication is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of modern British governance.
