Electing and Ejecting Party Leaders in Britain

More about the book

Focusing on party leadership dynamics, the book explores how the Conservatives, Labour, and Liberal Democrats engage their members in selecting leaders through all-member ballots. It delves into the implications of these participatory processes and analyzes the mechanisms each major British party has implemented to make it more challenging to remove sitting leaders. Through this examination, it sheds light on the evolving nature of leadership contests within these political parties.
