Introduction to the British Constitution
This is a really important area to have some good background in before starting a PPE course in particular. So many students don't really understand where the party system comes from, what ideological waves have hit domestic politics at different times and, crucially, how they relate to current affairs issues. Having a handle on how hot topics now relate to past debates and their effects on the UK is crucial, especially at Oxbridge interview where political current affairs topics are inevitably discussed.
Host: Emma (PPE Oxford, 1st), who will be holding the masterclass, specialised in 20th century British Politics.
Duration: Suggested 1-2 hours, dependent on the level of detail desired.
