Mcb68@Cam.Ac.Uk Tapeley Park Library Catalogue the Following [email protected] Tapeley Park Library Catalogue The following Catalogue lists all books stored in the Tapeley Park Library. It has been a labour of love and is very much a work in progress; any corrections would be gratefully received. In the interest of speed I have not yet converted Roman Numeral dates, moved definite and indefinite articles to the end of short title references or added a ‘key words’/Category section to the table. For the time being the list is organised by shelf reference. I have designated the case immediately to one’s left upon entrance to the Library as Case 1 and the following case numbers run clockwise around the room, with the top shelf as Shelf 1. I have not yet included VHS tapes, audio cassettes, vinyls, paintings or ornaments in the catalogue, but I have included children’s books, pamphlets, brochures, account books and diaries amongst the book listings. The catalogue can be searched using the ‘Ctrl F’ function.

The familiar political equipoise was disturbed by the widening of the franchise and the emergence of radical new threats in the form of New Liberalism and Socialism. Some conservatives responded to these changes by emphasising the importance of individual liberty and the preservation of the existing social structure and institutions.

  • Mallock Social Philosophy Political Economy with a New Introduction by Modern History
    Mallock Social Philosophy Political Economy With a new introduction by Modern History THE LIMITS OF PURE DEMOCRACY H. Lee Cheek, Jr. W. H. Mallock With a new introduction by H.

Publicists and playwrights from Sidney Webb to George Bernard Shaw expressed not just belief in “utopianism” but a vigorous assault The Limits of on the existing political and economic order. Less well known is how a group of Tory thinkers laid the foundations of a conservative counter-attack expressed with equal literary and intellectual brilliance. Foremost among them was W. H. The Limits of Mallock. In The Limits of Pure Democracy he argued that the pseudo-populist leaders of the political party system promise everything but deliver only the end of parties as such. For Mallock, what starts with populism ends in dictatorship. The Russian Revolution was simply the historical outcome of utopian socialist visions that were more dedicated to destroying the present system of things than bringing about a revitalized future. Mallock’s book explains how the modern free market succeeds through competition in increasing output, broadening occupational opportunities, and multiplying the numbers of skilled professionals. In contrast, welfare schemes serve to deepen poverty by spreading wealth so evenly that incentives to work decline and personal savings are eliminated. These arguments have become commonplace today. But at the time they PURE DEMOCRACY served as an incendiary reminder that class warfare works in both directions. PURE Mallock was a remarkably talented writer who made the case against exaggerated expectations, a nascent welfare system, and mass political parties led by oligarchs.
