Vernon Bogdanor (Professor of Government at Oxford) is giving a lecture on Monday 30th November, at 5pm in the Great Hall. It is on the subject of his recently published book, “The New British Constitution”, which examines the changes brought about by the New Labour reforms since 1997.
"The last decade has seen radical changes in the way we are governed. Reforms such as the Human Rights Act and devolution have led to the replacement of one constitutional order by another. This book is the first to describe and analyse Britain's new constitution, asking why it was that the old system, seemingly hallowed by time, came under challenge, and why it is being replaced."
