Course Overview



We often consider the right to vote to be one of our most sacred and fundamental rights. However, we have not all always had the right to vote throughout history. This course charts the changing nature of democracy throughout British history and examines the rise in power of the main political parties in Britain, as well as examining the structure of the government.
