Policy Exchange

In the first publication of its kind, Policy Exchange examines the strength of left-wing and right-wing ideas in the world’s industrialised countries. The Global Political Monitor 2007 concludes that we are living in an age dominated by centre-right governments but detects some interesting straws in the wind which might suggest a centre-left resurgence.

The publication looks at the electoral situation in the 30 OECD countries, 10 of which conducted parliamentary elections in 2007.
