State of the Nations 2004

State of the Nations 2004
This book provides the first comprehensive and dispassionate stock-take of the effect of devolution during the first term of the Scottish Parliament and National Assembly for Wales. Part 1 covers the territories of the UK-Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the English regions. Part 2 looks at its impact on the centre Westminster, Whitehall and public opinion. Part 3 looks at developments in two key areas of public policy. The book as a whole assesses not just how parts of the UK have been affected by devolution, but also its effect on the UK as a whole.

The book is written by members of the Constitution Unit at UCL and leading experts from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Like previous books in the State of the Nations series, it is also an invaluable reference source.
