Описание: Based on interviews with key actors in the policy-making process, this book maps the changes in education policy and policy making in the Thatcherite decade. The focus of the book is the 1988 Education Reform Act, its origins, purposes and effects, and it looks behind the scenes at the priorities of the politicians, civil servants and government advisers who were influential in making changes. Using direct quotations from senior civil servants and former secretaries of state it provides a fascinating insight into the way in which policy is made. The book focuses on real-life political conflicts, examining the way in which education policy was related to the ideal of society projected by Thatcherism. It looks in detail at the New Right government advisers and think tanks; the industrial lobby, addressing issues such as the National Curriculum, national testing and City Technical Colleges. The author sets these important issues within a clear theoretical framework which illuminates the whole process of policy making.

Описание: Craig Berry assesses UK economic policy in the wake of the financialcrisis through the lens of the austerity agenda, focusing on monetary policy,economic rebalancing, industrial and regional policy, the labour market,welfare reform and budgetary management. He argues that austerity is gearedtowards a resurrection of financialisation and the UK’s pre-crisis economic model,through the transformation of individual behaviour and demonisation of thestate. Cutting public spending and debt in the short term is, at most, asecondary concern for the UK policy elite. However, the underlying purpose ofausterity is frequently misunderstood due to its conflation with a narrowdeficit reduction agenda, not least by its Keynesian critics. Berry alsodemonstrates how austerity has effectively dismantled the prospect of acentre-left alternative to neoliberalism.
