Democracy and participation: is there a participation crisis in the UK?

Politics review

Volume 19 Number 1 September 2009

We are, without question, in the run up to the next UK general election, which will take place under unprecedented economic conditions. POLITICS REVIEW is set to provide you with our best-ever support for success and enjoyment in A-level politics throughout that time. In this issue, with particular relevance for AS students, Paul Whiteley looks at political participation in the UK, Steven Fielding asks ‘Whatever happened to New Labour?’ and Wyn Grant discusses whether pressure groups are good for democracy. For A2 students Andrew Heywood clears up confusion about multiculturalism and Edward Ashbee looks at differences between US political parties. You will also find our regular US and UK updates and AS and A2 exam pieces.

In the coming months, we’ll be providing topical coverage directly relevant to your A-level specification, showing you how an understanding of the unfolding events can relate to exam success.
