  • Plaid Cymru and the SNP in Government
    What does it mean to be ‘normal’? Plaid Cymru and the SNP in Government Craig McAngus School of Government and Public Policy University of Strathclyde McCance Building 16 Richmond Street Glasgow G1 1QX [email protected] Paper prepared for the Annual Conference of the Political Studies Association, Cardiff, 25 th -27 th March 2013 Abstract Autonomist parties have been described as having shifted from ‘niche to normal’. Governmental participation has further compounded this process and led to these parties facing the same ‘hard choices’ as other parties in government. However, the assumption that autonomist parties can now be described as ‘normal’ fails to address the residual ‘niche’ characteristics which will have an effect on the party’s governmental participation due to the existence of important ‘primary goals’. Taking a qualitative, comparative case study approach using semi-structured interview and documentary data, this paper will examine Plaid Cymru and the SNP in government. This paper argues that, although both parties can indeed be described as ‘normal’, the degree to which their ‘niche’ characteristics affect the interaction between policy, office and vote-seeking behaviour varies. Indeed, while the SNP were able to somewhat ‘detach’ their ‘primary goals’ from their government profile, Plaid Cymru’s ability to formulate an effective vote-seeking strategy was severely hampered by policy-seeking considerations. The paper concludes by suggesting that the ‘niche to normal’ framework requires two additional qualifications. Firstly, the idea that autonomist parties shift from ‘niche’ to ‘normal’ is too simplistic and that it is more helpful to examine how ‘niche’ characteristics interact with and affect ‘normal’ party status.

Regional Development, Distinctiveness, and the Growth of Nationalism in Cornish Politics. Abstract Stateless nations across the EU have become increasingly vocal and confident in asserting a desire for autonomy, devolved governance, and independence. Meanwhile, identity politics has become a key factor of contemporary European regional development, with utility as a social, economic and governance tool. Culture has become a resource for regional branding to attract inward investment and differentiate in terms of competitiveness. The paper considers whether the utility of identity to regional development might provide an explanation for the growing confidence of EU stateless nations. We use the case study of Cornwall to explore the correlation, arguing that economic regionalism has provided a space for the articulation of national identities.

  • Chapter 2 Policy-Making Capacity of Political Parties in Wales
    Chapter 2 Policy-making Capacity of Political Parties in Wales Anwen Elias 2 Policy-making Capacity of Political Parties in Wales Anwen Elias Introduction Political parties are central to any democratic political system. They are a key linkage between citizens and government. By contesting elections, political parties aim to mobilise popular support for a particular vision of how society should be organised. Translating this vision into concrete policies presents parties with major challenges. It tests their ability to respond to and reflect the needs and aspirations of their supporters, and to come up with appropriate solutions that can improve society. This paper considers the extent to which political parties in post-devolution Wales have been able to meet these challenges. The empirical evidence presented here draws on interviews undertaken during July and August 2012 with representatives of the main Welsh political parties - Welsh Labour, Welsh Conservatives, Welsh Liberal Democrats and Plaid Cymru. A full list of interviews is provided in Appendix 1. The paper is divided into two parts. The first outlines the current capacity and procedures for making policy within the Welsh parties. The aim is to identify changes in policy- making capacity in the run-up to, and since, the creation of the National Assembly. Drawing on this empirical evidence, the second section identifies areas of policy under-capacity and makes recommendations for addressing these weaknesses. Particular attention is paid to resources for policy development within government, and the public funding for policy development within political parties more generally. Dynamics of policy-making in Wales’ political parties This section outlines the process by which policy is generally made in each of Wales’s political parties, and the ways in which this has evolved in the post-devolution period.
