Clarke, H.D., Sanders, D., et al. (2009) Performance politics and the British voter. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.

Rawnsley, A. (2010) The end of the party: the rise and fall of New Labour. London: Viking.

Kelly, P., (ed.) (2010) British political theory in the twentieth century. Oxford: Wiley-Blackwell.

Hay, C. (ed.) (2010) New directions in political science: responding to the challenges of an interdependent world. London: Palgrave Macmillan.
