Dunleavy, Patrick and Stirbu, Diana (2018) The basic structure of the devolution settlements. In: The UK's changing democracy : the 2018 democratic audit. Democratic audit . LSE Press, London, pp. 264-278. ISBN 978-1-909890-46-6
Devolution encompasses a range of quite different solutions in three countries (Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland), plus markedly smaller delegations of powers to London and some English cities and regions. There remain important issues around the stability and effectiveness of these arrangements, which were designed to meet specific demands for national or regional control and to bring government closer to citizens. Diana Stirbu and Patrick Dunleavy explore how far relations between Westminster and the key devolved institutions have been handled democratically and effectively.
