An introductory survey of concepts relating to the constitutional framework leads on to a glossary in which basic terminology is defined in clear terms. Aimed at A level students and first year Undergraduates in Politics and Government. Num Pages: 176 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: 1DBKE; 1DBKW; GBC; JPHC; LND.

This companion to the British Constitution was born out of the view that the tendency for modern political studies to concentrate on processes rather than structures, results in a failure to understand the basic political terminology. Teachers and writers assume a knowledge on the part of others that may well not exist. This means that students coming to politics for the first time often do not have the basic vocabulary with which to understand the subject. This book provides that vocabulary.
