ESRC Project Reports
Key findings from the ESRC Project ‘Legislative Agendas in the UK’ (addressed in length in the book Policy Agendas in British Politics) are summarised in this document. A series of reports also summarise the data and analyses from the project relating to the policy, public and media agendas in the UK.
- Peter John and Shaun Bevan (2011) ‘Project Report on Prime Minister’s Parliamentary Questions‘: this report outlines how the dataset on PMQs helps our understanding of the agenda of the opposition in Parliament.
- Will Jennings (2011) ‘Project Report on Agendas and Representation in Britain‘: this report discusses the policy-opinion link, presenting findings on correspondence between the public agenda (measured with data on the ‘most important problem’) and the executive agenda (i.e. Speech from the Throne), the legislative agenda (i.e. Acts of UK parliament) and the media agenda (i.e. The Times).
- Will Jennings (2011) ‘Project Report on Punctuations in British Governing Agendas‘: this report summarises evidence concerning ‘punctuated equilibrium’ in the policy, public and media agendas in the UK, comparing the degree of ‘punctuatedness’ with input (i.e. real world) variables.
- Shaun Bevan (2011) ‘The UK Policy Agendas Project Media Dataset Research Note: The Times (London)‘: this report introduces the dataset on the media agenda in the UK, and discusses patterns of attention in The Times over the period from 1960 to 2008.
- Darren Halpin (2011) ‘Quantifying the Scottish Parliamentary and Legislative Agendas: Acts, Inquiries and Sewel Motions of the Scottish Parliament (1999-2007)‘: this reports on the coding and analysis of the Scottish legislative agenda since the devolution settlement of 1999. It quantifies the spread and diversity of the issue attention of Acts of Scottish Parliament.
