Great Britain

This volume is destined to become a trendsetter in comparative politics. When confronted with the large question of whether great powers, like Britain, are in a stage of political and economic 'decline, ' Studlar points the way by his application of public policy analysis to explain how and why government policies have evolved in the economic welfare, foreign, and social regulatory domains. - Raymond Tatalovich, Loyola University, Chicago.

Donley T. Studlar is Eberly Distinguished Professor of Political Science at West Virginia University.
