Sobre IBD

This book examines the Labour Party’s approach to constitutional reforms in historical context, and how these have been pursued more to ’modernize’ political institutions, rather that radically transform them. Dorey explains the reasons for this constitutional conservatism, and the debates which specific reform proposals have prompted in the Party.
