A comparative analysis of the nations, conducted by scholars on both sides of the Irish Sea.
Constitutional order across the islands of Britain and Ireland faces critical challenges with the rise of Scottish, Welsh and Irish nationalism, an emerging English consciousness, and Brexit. There is no resolution within the old assumptions about nations, states, sovereignty and borders. Nor can we rely on post-devolution practices in relations among the various governments based on bilateral relations between London and Dublin, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast. Instead, Political Change across Britain and Ireland examines the whole web of what has been called the totality of relationships among the peoples of these islands, asking difficult questions about identities, institutions and prospects for the future.

Paul Gillespie directs the Constitutional Futures after Brexit project in the School of Politics and International Relations in University College Dublin. Michael Keating is Emeritus Professor of Politics at the University of Aberdeen and was co-founder and Director of the Centre on Constitutional Change. Nicola McEwen is Professor and Director of the Centre for Public Policy at the University of Glasgow.
