(Jyväskylä Studies in Humanities ISSN 1459-4323; 268 (nid.) ISSN 1459-4331; 268 (PDF)) ISBN 978-951-39-6383-5 (nid.) ISBN 978-951-39-6384-2 (PDF) The atomic bomb shaped the post-war world and the relations between Britain and the United States. Previous research has presented limited views on British early atomic proliferation in the contexts of domestic policy and Anglo-American relations. The problems of Anglo-American relationship have often been downplayed. Margaret Gowing has claimed that Parliament did not have a say or interest in atomic matters and that everything was ran by the government or the Cabinet or the inner circle of the Cabinet. This view has been repeated without any critical evaluation by other historians ever since. The notion of Parliament’s narrow role in foreign and defence policy has also been suggested in most research relating to parliamentary history. The goal of this study is to illustrate the factors which, within one year, led to a change from public, proactive and internationalist policy to a secret, reactive and realist approach. Moreover, these changes and their causes contributed to the partial failure of the Anglo-American atomic collaboration in 1946. This empirical study uses formerly secret archival sources of the government, diplomatic correspondence, and Hansard Parliamentary debates, supplemented with press material. During 1945-46 Parliament referred to atomic energy in 150 instances, in contrast to claims of mute and uninterested Parliament. These findings show the interdependence of the government, Parliament and officials in the atomic matters. Both the Anglo-American “special relationship” and atomic collaboration were more complex issues than has been presented in previous research. I claim that 1) in 1945-1946 there were five turning points when the British policy changed quite drastically back and forth. This was because 2) the role of British officials and, thus, path dependency on previous decisions was greater than has been considered. They informed Clement Attlee’s government so that the regime changed its views and pursued secret atomic co-operation for gaining the atomic bomb. 3) This did not entirely succeed due to the British parliament’s supervision. Due to the urgent and important nature of atomic matters, Parliament managed to gain access to them. Procedures like parliamentary questions and adjournment debates enhanced Parliament’s capability to supervise the government, which limited government’s options. 4) This led to problems in implementing policy 5) The Americans were reluctant to continue the atomic co-operation and seem to have applied “atomic diplomacy” against the British in order to enhance their own position in the post-war world. All of these contradicting paradigms affected the British government’s possibilities of conducting atomic foreign policy. The “atomic question” also contributed to a gradual change in the British political culture, affecting in part to parliamentarisation of atomic and foreign affairs.

It has been, as most of the dissertations tend to be, a learning experience, but it has also been more than challenging to complete. Therefore all the help and support at work and outside the office has been more than welcome and a number of persons de- serve the highest of thanks. I would like to warmly thank professor Jussi Hanhimäki for his insightful comments and dedicated work, both as my oppo- nent and as one of the two reviewers of this dissertation; while Dr. Rhiannon Vickers’ meticulous and expert work on reviewing my manuscript was both heartening and encouraging. When I started this process years ago, it looked very daunting and it was hard to imagine ever getting to the end, let alone that my research would be reviewed by such specialists. During these years at the Department of History and Ethnology I have had the privilege of working with the best possible colleagues, who have spared no effort to lend me their knowledge and expertise. There is not enough of space in here to thank each and every one of you individually, and therefore I would like to express my gratitude to the whole department, and to Professor Jari Ojala, the head of our department. Thank you for giving me the privilege of learning more each and every day from each and every one of you. I would also like the thank the Chair of General History, Professor Pasi Ihalainen, and the discipline of General History for their support. Pasi’s high standards have not always been easy to meet, but the effort has been more than worthwhile, ever since the first course I took at the University of Jyväskylä. Work associated with Pasi’s various research projects, such as the “Parliamen- tary Means of Conflict Resolution”, and his extended networks have taken me to conferences around Europe to discuss and present my research with some very prominent scholars. I am also thankful to the Faculty of Humanities, and the University of Jyväskylä, for the chance to research, learn, and also teach in the best possible surroundings. The Faculty of Social Sciences, and Political Sci- ence in particular, have also been very accommodating with my various inter- disciplinary research interests ever since I started my bachelor’s and master’s studies (thanks especially Pekka Korhonen and Kari Palonen). And the third element that has helped me grasp my topic within a wider framework, has been to study International Relations at the University of Tampere. I am also grateful to the research project, “Driving Forces of Democracy”, which I am currently involved in, and the head of its Jyväskylä branch, profes- sor Petri Karonen, for giving me the chance to embark on a new course of re- search while still finishing this dissertation, and for his patience and support during this time. My supervisor has also been my greatest mentor. Dr. Satu Matikainen had already supervised my bachelor’s & master’s theses, and has basically been the best possible supervisor ever. Satu has the rare skill of being able to balance su- pervision and support with very stern demands, and she has taught me more than anyone else about becoming an independent researcher, and about finding out how to constantly improve my work. It has been a pleasure working under her supervision and then alongside her. The guidance provided by PhD Antero Holmila, my second supervisor, has also been helpful. Above all, Antero’s knowledge about using press material as a source, and the research related with this, helped me greatly in that context. Besides all these thanks there are some other colleagues whose support has been beyond all expectations. The four of us, who started our doctoral dis- sertations at the same time, have enjoyed mutual support within and outside the office, and it has been good to know that I was not alone in trying to navi- gate the occasionally rough waters of academia. Thank you for all your help, and especially for all the bad jokes Tiina Hemminki, Laura-Mari Manninen, and Henna-Riikka Pennanen. With regard to other colleagues: Dr. Pasi Saarimäki’s great efforts and noble achievement of finally finishing his dissertation taught me a lot at the point I was starting my own.

  • The Price of Alliance: American Bases in Britain
    / THE PRICE OF ALLIANCE: AMERICAN BASES IN BRITAIN John Saville In 1984 there were 135 American military bases in Britain, most of them operational, some still being planned or built. This total was made up of 25 major operational bases or military headquarters, 35 minor or reserve bases, and 75 facilities used by the US Armed Forces. There were also about 30 housing sites for American personnel and their families. The term 'facility' covers a variety of different functions, and includes intelligence centres, stores, fuel supply points, aircraft weapon ranges and at least fourteen contingency military hospitals. Within this military complex there are five confirmed US nuclear weapon stores in the United Kingdom: at Lakenheath in East Anglia; Upper Heyford in Northampton- shire; Holy Loch and Machrihanish in south-west Scotland; and St. Mawgan in Cornwall. Other bases, notably Woodbridge and Alconbury, are thought to have storage facilities for peacetime nuclear weapons. All this information and much more, is provided in the only compre- hensive published survey of American military power in Britain. This is the volume by Duncan Campbell, The Unsinkable Aircraft Carrier. American Military Power in Britain, published by Michael Joseph in 1984. It is an astonishing story that Campbell unfolds, and the greater part of it-and certainly its significance for the future of the British people- has remained largely unknown or ignored by both politicians and public. The use of British bases by American planes in April 1986 provided the beginnings of a wider awareness of the extent to which the United Kingdom has become a forward operational base for the American Armed Forces within the global strategy laid down by the Joint Chiefs of Staff in Washington; but it would be an exaggeration to believe that there is a general awareness, or unease of living in an arsenal of weapons controlled by an outside power.

(Signature) ……………………………………………………………………………… 1 Abstract There was no special governmental partnership between Britain and America during the Second World War in atomic affairs. A recalibration is required that updates and amends the existing historiography in this respect. The wartime atomic relations of those countries were cooperative at the level of science and resources, but rarely that of the state. As soon as it became apparent that fission weaponry would be the main basis of future military power, America decided to gain exclusive control over the weapon. Britain could not replicate American resources and no assistance was offered to it by its conventional ally. America then created its own, closed, nuclear system and well before the 1946 Atomic Energy Act, the event which is typically seen by historians as the explanation of the fracturing of wartime atomic relations. Immediately after 1945 there was insufficient systemic force to create change in the consistent American policy of atomic monopoly. As fusion bombs introduced a new magnitude of risk, and as the nuclear world expanded and deepened, the systemic pressures grew.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 F 7377 POLITI 58^S8i ABSTRACT The British left has confronted a dilemma in forming its attitude towards Israel in the postwar period. The establishment of the Jewish state seemed to force people on the left to choose between competing nationalisms - Israeli, Arab and later, Palestinian. Over time, a number of key developments sharpened the dilemma. My central focus is the evolution of thinking about Israel and the Middle East in the British Labour Party. I examine four critical periods: the creation of Israel in 1948; the Suez war in 1956; the Arab-Israeli war of 1967 and the 1980s, covering mainly the Israeli invasion of Lebanon but also the intifada. In each case, entrenched attitudes were called into question and longer-term shifts were triggered in the aftermath.

  • U DDC Records of the Union 1910-1974 of Democratic Control
    Hull History Centre: Records of the Union of Democratic Control U DDC Records of the Union 1910-1974 of Democratic Control Historical background: The UDC was established in the first days of the First World War to work for parliamentary control of foreign policy and a moderate peace settlement. There was a belief in some quarters that Britain had been dragged into the war because of secret military agreements with France and Russia. The early leaders of the group initially called the Committee of Democratic Control, were Charles Trevelyan (the only member of the Liberal government to resign over the declaration of war), James Ramsay Macdonald, Arthur Ponsonby, Norman Angell and ED Morel. Morel became the secretary and initial driving force behind what was soon re-named the Union of Democratic Control. The group was formally launched with an open letter to the press in early September 1914. The UDC's stated objectives were: parliamentary control over foreign policy and the prevention of secret diplomacy, a movement for international understanding after the war, and a just peace. A Committee of 18 members was established, including Arthur Henderson, JA Hobson and Bertrand Russell. Operations were initially based at Charles Trevelyan's London home, but offices were quickly acquired off the Strand, and later, on Fleet Street. Running costs were met from subscriptions, plus large donations received from several major Quaker business concerns. In late 1917 the UDC reached its maximum membership of some 10,000 individuals in over 100 branches. By 1918, 300 other groups (mainly co-operatives, trade unions and women's organisations) with 650,000 members were also affiliated to the UDC.

  • CHANGING JOURNALISM for the LIKELY PRESENT Abstract
    CHANGING JOURNALISM FOR THE LIKELY PRESENT S T E P H E N Q U I N N , P H D (Refereed) Associate Professor of Journalism Deakin University Victoria Abstract Media convergence and newsroom integration have become industry buzzwords as the ideas spread through newsrooms around the world. In November 2007 Fairfax Media in Australia introduced the newsroom of the future model, as its flagship newspapers moved into a purpose-built newsroom in Sydney. News Ltd, the country’s next biggest media group, is also embracing multi-media forms of reporting. What are the implications of this development for journalism? This paper examines changes in the practice of journalism in Australia and around the world. It attempts to answer the question: How does the practice of journalism need to change to prepare not for the future, but for the likely present. early in November 2007 The Sydney Morning Herald, the Australian Financial Review and the Sun-Herald moved into a new building dubbed the ‘newsroom of the future’ at One Darling Island Road in Sydney’s Darling Harbour precinct. Phil McLean, at the time Fairfax Media’s group executive editor and the man in charge of the move, said three quarters of the entire process involved getting people to ‘think differently’ – that is, to modify their mindset so they could work with multi-media. The new newsroom symbolised the culmination of a series of major changes at Fairfax. In August 2006 the traditional newspaper company, John Fairfax Ltd, changed its name to Fairfax Media to reflect its multi-platform future.
