Devolution and Local Government
Devolution in Scotland has had a major impact upon local government. Local government, at both political and managerial levels, perceives central government in the shape of the Scottish Executive to be closer (geographically and politically) and more open to local government in terms of access to ministers and civil servants. However, Scottish central–local relations continues to be characterised by a sense of mistrust of local government, especi…
The Modernisation of Local Decision Making
Improving the quality of public participation in council decision making continues to be a key goal of local government 'modernisation'. Different rationales for this have been advanced, including consumerist aims of service improvement, participation as an important value in itself, and participation as a survival strategy for local government. Based on surveys of, and interviews with, councillors and senior officers in Scottish local government…
The ‘Modernisation’ of Political Management Arrangements in Post Devolution Scottish Local Government
While devolution has brought central government geographically and politically closer to local government it has not shielded it from pressures to ‘modernise’ its political management arrangements. However, devolution has created a different political context to other parts of the UK and this has allowed Scottish local government to voice its views on ‘modernisation’ with perhaps greater weight than is the case elsewhere. Moreover, ‘modernisation…

Scotching The Myth
Strong claims about the impact of the creation of a Scottish Parliament have been advanced by its proponents and opponents in both the political and academic arenas (see for instance Midwinter and McVicar (1996) who have been the most prominent Scottish academics to offer a sceptical opinion on the proposed Parliament). Much of the debate has focused on tax or expenditure relativities between Scotland and the rest of the UK, and the degree to whi…
The End of the Regional Experiment? Some Implications of Scottish Local Government Reorganisation for English Regions
The rise of regional government in Scotland can be linked to the wider growth of regionalism throughout Western Europe in which the positive role of government in managing the regional economy was stressed. However, almost since their inception the Scottish Regional Councils were undermined from the centre until their abolition in 1996. The new system of Scottish local government has been shorn of key strategic functions and subjected to a pletho…
