Synopsis
Although politicians promise innovation and change when they run for office, once elected they find they have inherited commitments to programs initiated by their predecessors, legacies that severely limit their freedom of choice. In this trail-blazing work, based on a unique study of hundreds of public programs in effect in Britain since WWII, Richard Rose and Phillip L. Davies systematically examine the ways in which decisions made by past generations of administrators control policy-making in the present.

Review
"Inheritance in Public Policy is a tour de force. Rose and Davies succeed in illuminating the neglected role of time in public policy decisionmaking."-Murray Weidenbaum, Washington University in St. Louis "A book that will inform and stimulate students, rouse specialists to think again about political generalizations that they take for granted, and force politicians to recognize the limitations to their influence."-Sir Alan Peacock, The David Hume Institute "This book offers an important and novel approach to the study of national policy-making, challenging some widely held beliefs on the subject."-Robert M. Stein, Rice University
