Description

Explore the complexities of transparency and political reform with Open Government (Routledge Revivals). Originally published in 1987, this scholarly work provides a detailed study of the prospects for open government within the specific limitations of the British political system. This book examines the practical implications of increasing public access to official information in Britain. It focuses on two major areas of reform: the expansion of Freedom of Information and the necessary changes to Section 2 of the Official Secrets Act. By analyzing how these shifts affect both politicians and civil servants, the text highlights the challenges faced within an adversarial system of government. Readers will gain insight into how proposed reforms impact the fundamental conventions of the British constitution. This edition is a valuable resource for those studying law, political science, or the history of government administration, offering a deep look into the political significance of transparency reforms and their effect on democratic processes.
