Book excerpt: Originally published in 1981, Control and Power in Central-Local Government Relationships rapidly established itself as a classic in the study of local government. Its 'power-dependence' model of central-local government relations underpinned the vast growth in the study of policy networks in British government. This reprint adds four chapters to the original book including two specially written; a preface commenting on each chapter and an essay on where we are now in the study of networks.
