It has been observed that the local state in the United Kingdom and the United States has undergone fundamental restructuring since the 1970s. This transformation has been see by some as a product of the ideological shift in national governing regimes, and by others of the reordering in the national and global political economy. Moreover, it has been contended that as a result of these changes, some convergence in patterns of local state development between the UK and the US has occurred. This article assesses the validity of these claims by tracing the changes in the size and functions of the local state by comparing local government expenditures in Britain and the US since the early 1970s
