Delineating Wales
"In Delineating Wales, Richard Rawlings critically evaluates the constitutional, legal and administrative aspects of devolution. Drawing on extensive research in and around the assembly, he considers the original design and the operation and evolution through its first full term of the new representative institution. He examines law making for Wales post-devolution, traces the emergence of a distinctive internal form of small-country governance and discusses Wales's relationships inside the United Kingdom and the European Union. In addition to being the first monograph to examine these aspects in detail, Delineating Wales also offers a detailed critique of the so-called 'devolution settlement' and makes proposals for reform. It will be an essential text for anyone interested in contemporary constitutional and political developments in relation to the Welsh model of devolution and to the United Kingdom process of devolution generally."--BOOK JACKET.
