Ted Svensson and Agnes Cornell on the introduction of merit reforms in nineteenth-century Britain

Publicerad 21 mars 2022

New article by Ted Svensson and Agnes Cornell on the introduction of merit reforms in nineteenth-century Britain and its possible colonial origins.

In a newly published article in Governance, Ted Svensson (together with Agnes Cornell) explores whether the inspiration to reform the British Civil Service, along the lines suggested in the 1854 Northcote-Trevelyan Report, was drawn from the introduction of meritocratic practices in British-ruled India. Contrary to standard depictions, the article rejects the portrayal of British merit reforms as caused by a policy transfer or diffusion from the Indian Civil Service to the Home Civil Service.
