The special issue ‘Democratic Revolution: Evaluating the political and administrative reform landscape after the economic crisis’ was co-edited by Dr Theresa Reidy and Dr Fiona Buckley from the Department of Government at UCC and was focused on the political reform programme of the 2011-2016 coalition government of Fine Gael and Labour.

The special issue included articles from colleagues in the Department of Government and politics departments across Ireland.

All articles in the issue are available online at https://www.degruyter.com/view/j/admin.2017.65.issue-2/issue-files/admin.2017.65.issue-2.xml The special issue arose from a conference hosted in UCC in April 2014. The conference was designed to be a mid-term evaluation of the political reform programme of the Fine Gael-Labour coalition government and it evolved into the Administration special issue. The initial project was funded by a grant from Ionad Bairre in UCC.
