British Politics Course

Description

British Politics Diploma 

The political system in Britain follows a system consisting of two parties. Since the 1920s, the Labour Party and the Conservative Party have dominated the political scene. Before the rise of the Labour Party in politics in the country, the major party, besides the Conservatives, was the Liberal Party. Minorities or coalitions have formed governments; this happens only occasionally. The country uses an electoral system for general elections known as the first-past-the-post, favouring the maintenance of the two-party method comprising the Labour Party and the Conservative Party. There have been times when these two parties have formed coalitions with another more minor party to have a majority in the Parliament.

The British Politics Diploma course starts with an overview of the critical theoretical perspectives on British politics, including the Parliament, the Constitution, the Executive, Whitehall, the Civil Service, devolution, and voting. The British Politics Diploma course uses these fundamental concepts. It applies them to understand the issues faced in different periods since the beginning of the twentieth century in the British political scene.
