DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This is the first book length assessment of the executive agency revolution in UK central government, part of the New Public Management, with 65 per cent of civil servants now working in agencies. The 'Next Steps' reformers' public interest view suggested value for money improvements. However, original analysis of budgets, performance data, documents and interviews reveals some support for an alternative 'bureau-shaping' perspective from rational choice, with officials using the reform to protect their welfare and substantial performance problems, especially in 'joining-up' government.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →A major part of the British government's privatization programme, which has been heralded as a radical break in government, were its oil assets. This book uses institutional public choice models to examine the case study of the sale of Britoil, British Petroleum, Enterprise Oil and Wytch Farm, and then re-assembles the pieces to better understand the whole. The extensive interviews provide a full and flavourful background to exploring the actors at four levels of structures: international, state-owned companies, civil service and the political process.

The Road to Maastricht identifies why the agreement was possible and how the agreement was made. The book examines the motives that inspired European political leaders, the strategies that they pursued, and the institutions that were used to achieve monetary union. Drawing on a wide range of sources and unprecedented research and interviews, the book combines careful political analysis with new information about the way in which European Monetary Union was negotiated. It delves into the complex forces at work in Europe, including the cross-national political interactions, to produce an authoritative account of the boldest and riskiest venture in the history of European integration.
