description: To what extent have different sectors of the political economy in Scotland and northern England responded to Thatcherism's determined attempt to replace the corporatism of the 1970s with the discipline of the market and a competitive environment? This book discusses the distinctive political, economic, and social arrangements within Scotland, and identifies failures by public and private sectors to adjust to the changes that have occurred since 1979 as well as successful attempts to create a more competitive and enterprising environment.
