The Democratic Potential of Public Participation: Healthcare Governance in England
Public participation is commonly advocated as part of the solution to the problem of democratic deficit in the development and implementation of policy. This article considers the democratic function of different arrangements for public participation, with reference to alternative rationales for democratic engagement in the health services context. We review the limitations of aggregative and representative notions, before exploring the senses in…
Contracts in the English NHS: Market levers and social embeddedness
This paper draws parallels between the market trend in the English NHS and Polanyi’s (1957) The Great Transformation: The political and economic origins of our time, Beacon Press: Boston (originally published in 1944 in the United States as The Great Transformation, Rinehart: and Co: New York, and in 1945 in England as Origins of our time, Gollancz: London) account of how the rise of markets provokes a self-protective counter-reaction that tries …
The use of standard contracts in the English National Health Service: A case study analysis
Schisms in the Church: National Health Service Systems and Institutional Divergence in England and Wales
Since devolution, the four countries of the United Kingdom have pursued strikingly different National Health Service (NHS) reforms. While England created a supply-side market more radical than the previous internal market system, Wales moved to a softer version of the purchaser/provider split emphasizing localism. This article deploys institutional theory to analyze the forces shaping change, and describes the hybrid forms of economic organizatio…
The Limits of Near-Contractual Governance: Local Authority Internal Trading under CCT
Contract has played a major part in the restructuring of the public sector in Britain over the past fourteen years. The radical Conservative assault on the concept of public service provision, and the progressive transformation of the state into a purchasing operation run along private business lines, have involved contract in the introduction of internal markets together with market-based management techniques, the creation of semi-independent a…
Contract and Business Transactions: A Socio-Legal Analysis
Empirical studies demonstrating the non-contractual nature of business relations1 have tended to suffer from both the lack of any coherent socio-legal perspective2 and the failure to take proper account of important doctrinal developments within the law of obligations.3 In arguing that a Weberian theoretical model may be developed and used in the reappraisal of results of existing studies and in further empirical research,4 I am assuming that an …
Exclusive Possession and Exclusive Control of Private Rented Housing: A Socio-Legal Critique of the Lease-Licence Distinction

Theory and method reconsidered: A Marxist analysis of Trespass law
Law governing agents' possession of and separation from land is given as an object of study by struggles over land possession in the conjuncture involving squatting, factory occupations, and public protests and gatherings infringing private property rights. Marx's mature method, incorporating a concrete → abstract → concrete logical trajectory, can be adapted and developed in relation to law so as to enable the successful concrete analysis of thi…
Private Property and Public Order: The Hippy Convoy and Criminal Trespass
The so-called 'hippy convoy', finally dispersed on June 9 after three weeks of panic over the supposed threat to private property rights, has placed on the agenda once again the question of the need for criminal trespass law. On June 4, after pressure from the National Farmers' Union, the Country Landowners' Association and west-country Tory M.P.s, and in a climate of outrage fostered by generally hostile media coverage of the convoy, the Cabinet…
