What can MPs learn from what has already worked in transforming their institutions for the 21st Century

Government projects for transformation that have been a success can seem rarer than hens’ teeth. There’s a growing sense that Government itself cannot achieve change but is that true or have there been examples that offer lessons that are overlooked and what does that tell us about how to deliver?

I am a DPhil student in Politics (Comparative Government) focusing on the political economy of subnational government, examining inter-governmental arrangements and their implications on political and economic outcomes. It also concerns a cross-national comparison of fiscally centralised states, namely the UK, France, and China. I employ quantitative methods of causal inference and game theory, whereas my theoretic framework is intrinsically comparativist and historical institutionalist.
