About this title

Synopsis

Starting from the premiss that British democracy, as it has been traditionally understood, is under threat, this book examines what has happened. It claims that the system has seen power flow away from its traditional centres of Whitehall, parliament and local government, and that the decline of mass democracy means the decline of an acknowledged common cause among all social groups to build a stabler, juster and richer country. The book concludes with a call for politicians to put the cause of democracy once more at the centre of their thinking.

Store Description

Hall of Books is a family business selling secondhand books and sheet music online. We offer an eclectic (perhaps eccentric!) selection ranging from modern first edition hardbacks and quality paperbacks to the interesting, unusual and rare; the hard-to-find, collectable and out-of-print....and a lot more in between! We do our best to describe and photograph our books and music accurately; and to package them securely when they sell. We do not rely on stock images. If you need more information on a particular item, or if we haven't yet provided a photograph for a specific listing, please contact us using the Contact Seller button.
