Essential Local Government 2002 is a comprehensive guide to the current local government system in the UK.

This edition explains New Labour's modernising agenda for local government, including elected mayors and cabinets. It covers the ever-increasing central control exercised by the Blair government, raising the issue of whether local government has reached the stage where it is now in reality, local administration.
