The Politics of Consultation

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £754.80
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

In the age of post-truth politics, public confidence in politicians is at crisis point. The profile of public consultation has never been higher, its purpose never more important. Single-use plastics. Fixed-odds betting terminals. Additional runways at overcrowded airports. Local government devolution. High-speed rail links. New nuclear power stations. All have featured as the subject of controversial consultations as politicians seek to find ways of keeping their election promises and public bodies seek to find ways of managing a process that is vulnerable to legal challenge, media distortion and political interference. In The Politics of Consultation, the founders of the Consultaiton Institute cut through the spin to examine hundreds of mostly well-meaning attempts to respond to greater demands for public participation in decision-making. Taking a risk of their own, they propose approaches that could see an end to these matters being fought over in court.
