More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
The third edition of Constitutional Reform examines central government, Parliament, and the judiciary in Britain and proposes an agenda for reform. In addition to issues such as voting reform, reform of House of Lords and how citizens' rights might be better protected, the book considers the best methods through which such changes should be achieved and provides material for the international comparison of constitutions. Whilst the book has been fully revised and updated to provide a retrospective analysis of the major constitutional reforms of Tony Blair's premiership, it is not limited to that government's agenda and includes material on previous government's reforms and Gordon Brown's reform agenda. The third edition includes two new chapters, one on the structure and possible future of the United Kingdom and the other on whether the United Kingdom should adopt a codified constitution. It retains the clarity and lucid writing style of previous editions and features an expanded bibliography enabling readers to follow up points of particular interest. The book provides detailed coverage of British constitutional reform in the early twenty-first century and whilst aimed primarily at students of constitutional law, politics and government, it will also be of interest to the general reader.

Format:Paperback
This book is by the far the best read in constitutional reform. It is short, concise and wonderfully written to communicate the politics and history behind the constitution.
As a constitutional reform student, I have found this extremely cleverly, and clearly, written book to be central to my studies. Academics should use this book as a source of understanding from which to branch out into other the sources and more diverse materials.
The author, Professor Rodney Brazier, is also the leading academic in constitutional reform, and has advised governments in issues relating to reform of the constitution.
Quite honestly, this book is by far better than the other, overly thick, textbooks which I have also bought for my studies.

This is a great constitutional reform book by the man himself, Rodney Brazier- it's really easy to follow and doesn't overcomplicate the subject matter. Would definitely recommend.
