The Foreign Affairs Select Committee and UK Foreign Policy https://www.e-ir.info/2012/03/11/the-foreign-affairs-select-committee-and-uk-foreign-policy/ TOM PETTINGER, MAR 11 2012 Has the Foreign Affairs Select Committee made a difference to UK Foreign Policy? Because the executive has held, and still holds, royal prerogative for foreign affairs matters, Parliament has been “unusually limited”[1] in its influence over the area.[2] Scrutiny of foreign policy is unique because unlike in other areas of governance “Parliament is in no sense a regular participant in the process, either by right or custom,”[3] and because there is so little legislation in comparison with other policy areas.[4] Before 1979, an amalgamation of committees existed under different departments, examining specific foreign affairs issues with no oversight of the whole of foreign policy. The establishment of the Foreign Affairs Select Committee (FAC) in 1979 brought an increase in Parliamentary influence in the area, by “[creating] a committee devoted primarily, indeed exclusively, to foreign affairs,”[5] and the Committee was given the role of scrutinising “administration and policy of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO).”[6] An in-depth study by The Constitution Unit, however, found that the FAC provided the least substantive recommendations compared with other committees,[7] implying the Committee’s scrutiny role is somewhat hindered – possibly because the main parties’ front benches, to maintain one national voice on international affairs, withhold usual party politicking.

  • Although Many European Radical Left Parties
    Peace, T. (2013) All I'm asking, is for a little respect: assessing the performance of Britain's most successful radical left party. Parliamentary Affairs, 66(2), pp. 405-424. There may be differences between this version and the published version. You are advised to consult the publisher’s version if you wish to cite from it. http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/144518/ Deposited on: 21 July 2017 Enlighten – Research publications by members of the University of Glasgow http://eprints.gla.ac.uk 2 All I’m asking, is for a little Respect: assessing the performance of Britain’s most successful radical left party BY TIMOTHY PEACE1 ABSTRACT This article offers an overview of the genesis, development and decline of the Respect Party, a rare example of a radical left party which has achieved some degree of success in the UK. It analyses the party’s electoral fortunes and the reasons for its inability to expand on its early breakthroughs in East London and Birmingham. Respect received much of its support from Muslim voters, although the mere presence of Muslims in a given area was not enough for Respect candidates to get elected. Indeed, despite criticism of the party for courting only Muslims, it did not aim to draw its support from these voters alone. Moreover, its reliance on young people and investment in local campaigning on specific political issues was often in opposition to the traditional ethnic politics which have characterised the electoral process in some areas. When the British public awoke on the morning of Friday 6th May 2005 most would have been unsurprised to discover that the Labour Party had clung on to power but with a reduced majority, as had been widely predicted.

  • Virginia Woolf's Three Guineas
    FACULDADE DE LETRAS UNIVERSIDADE DO PORTO Marta Pereira Ferreira Correia 2º Ciclo de Estudos em Estudos Anglo-Americanos Variante de Estudos sobre Mulheres Virginia Woolf’s Three Guineas: The Past, The Present and Into The Future 2013 Orientadora: Professora Doutora Ana Luísa Amaral Classificação: Ciclo de estudos: Dissertação: Versão definitiva 1 Acknowledgements (not necessarily in this order) To the women of my life who share their guineas and believe in education. To my partner and glamorous assistant for his patience and queer insights. To Rita, Guilherme and their parents for making life fun. To Orquídea and Manuela for helping me with my own personal struggle with the “Angel in the House.” To the Spanish lot who have no fairies. To my tutors and colleagues at FLUP for the “moments of being.” To Women in Black Belgrade for their availability and work. To Professor Ana Luísa Amaral for her guidance, her words and inspiration. 2 Abstract Three Guineas (1938) is Virginia Woolf’s most controversial work due to the themes it addresses and the angry tone in which it was written. Negative and positive reactions to this essay are amply documented and reflect the intended polemical nature of the text. The past of the essay, the background from where it arose, involves looking at history through Woolf’s eyes, the effects World War I had in her life and later the violent 1930’s in Europe which would lead to World War II, the rise of Fascism and the Spanish Civil War. The present of the text is twofold: it is the text itself, but also ideas discussed by contemporary scholars, which bring Three Guineas into our time.
