This is a compilation of the historical research completed by many history students attending colleges and universities in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. I know from personal experience the effort that the authors have put into their pieces is exceptional. We are pushed to strive for excellence by our professors and that is most certainly what you will find in this journal. It is not just the authors of these historical pieces that need to be thanked and recognized. The difficult job of Journal Editor was given to Kevin Leibach, who is responsible for the outstanding journal you are now holding. Without his involvement ,the journal would have not been possible this year. However, he did not work alone; Kevin had the help of our wonderful faculty advisers, Dr. William Landon and Dr. Jonathon Reynolds, who were always more than ready to lend a helping hand or piece of advice. A very special thank you needs to be given to Miss Bonnie May. Without her our organization would not be able to function; she is our strong backbone and is a constant inspiration. Jan Rachford and Lou Stuntz should also be acknowledged with gratitude for the large amount of help that they have given us over the year. Dr. Tenkotte also deserves a special mention, for as head of the History Department his help was instrumental and invaluable. I would also like to thank those who gave their time to help with the editing process, like Aaron Sprinkles and Sharon Labate. This has been an incredibly busy year for Alpha Beta Phi. We have been involved with numerous charity events such as the Relay for Life where we raised $700.00 to support cancer research, and the Polar Bear Plunge where our team braved the jump into freezing cold water for the Special Olympics. We also walked in the Run like Hell marathon to raise money for Cystic Fibrosis. This year we have also taken part in assisting with the Six@Six Lecture Series, and presenting papers at both regional and national Conferences. As always our group assisted the NKU Vets on Veterans Day and Dr. Andrea Watkins on History Day. Additionally, we held a movie night, a caption contest, two field trips, one to theR enaissance fair and one to the Pompeii exhibit at the Cincinnati Children’s Museum. We also had an untold number of bake sales and book sales, which along with generous donations from the faculty, funded our many events. Alpha Beta Phi was also awarded the honor of achieving the Merit Award for the second year in a row; a testament to all the hard work our officers and members put in this year. I would like to give a special thanks to all our officers this year: James Lupo for his fine leadership during the first semester; CaitlinS tylinski Hazelip for stepping up and accepting the position of Vice President during our time of need; Matthew Chalfant, our excellent treasurer and green thumb; Vincent Fraley our historian who documented all of our events over the course of the year; Shane Winslow, our secretary; Kari Becker our wellness officer who went out of her way to help me and guide me; and again our hard working journal editor Kevin Leibach. I would also like to recognize Laura Fitzer and Aarron Sprinkles for all the help given this past year and I wish them well next year in their officer positions. This journal is a representation of the students of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and of Alpha Beta Phi. It represents hard work, our ongoing endeavor to strive for excellence, and our spirit of community. I hope that you enjoy reading the many pieces of research provided in this year’s journal. Alexandra Barrett President of Alpha Beta Phi, chapter of Phi Alpha Theta year 2011-2012 2 Foreword After a short hiatus, I would like to welcome you to the return of the Perspectives in History Journal. The work you are about to read is a collective effort of many talented individuals from across the Commonwealth of Kentucky. I have been humbled by the willingness of these individuals to put together a journal that you are sure to enjoy. This year seven talented writers have presented original works that should both entertain your intellectual curiosity and increase your awareness of the subject matter within. Kyla Fitz-Gerald informs us on what impacted the author Mungo Park to turn out the various works that he did, Abby Quiroa delves into the struggle for women in the Bluegrass State to attain the right to vote, Jamie Booth looks at the changing public opinion on prostitution in the late 18th century in England, Michael Johnson examines the downfall of Margaret Thatcher, Chastity Thomas enlightens us on the true machinations behind Henry VIII’s reforms, Arin Arnold researches Early American History to discover who exactly was the “common man”, and finally Shane West analyzes the confrontation between the Aztec leaders and Hernando Cortes that resulted in that civilization’s downfall. Moreover, this edition contains seven student book reviews. There are many individuals who deserve more than a measure of thanks for their assorted contributions on this edition of the journal. I would first like to thank Assistant Editor Aaron Sprinkles for all his efforts on the cover for this year’s journal. Concurrently, I would thank Assistant Editor Sheryn Labate for her continued efforts in reading and editing this volume. Perspectives in History could not exist without the encouragement and support of the faculty at Northern Kentucky University and I would like to acknowledge the oversight and assistance of Dr. Jonathon Reynolds, the faculty advisor for this year’s Perspective in History journal submission. A great deal of thanks is also given to the Alpha Beta Phi Chapter of Phi Alpha Theta faculty advisor Dr. William Landon at Northern Kentucky University as well as to Assistant Faculty Advisor, Bonnie May whose yearly encouragement and assistance is without equal. A word of thanks is also given to Dr. Paul Tenkotte, Chairperson of the History Department at Northern Kentucky University in 2011-2012 as well as to the entire History Department of Northern Kentucky University for creating an environment where historical research is fostered and encouraged.

    Haessly, Katie (2010) British Conservative Women Mps

    British Conservative Women MPs and ‘Women’s Issues’ 1950-1979 Katie Haessly, BA MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2010 1 Abstract In the period 1950-1979, there were significant changes in legislation relating to women’s issues, specifically employment, marital and guardianship and abortion rights. This thesis explores the impact of Conservative female MPs on these changes as well as the changing roles of women within the party. In addition there is a discussion of the relationships between Conservative women and their colleagues which provides insights into the changes in gender roles which were occurring at this time. Following the introduction the next four chapters focus on the women themselves and the changes in the above mentioned women’s issues during the mid-twentieth century and the impact Conservative women MPs had on them. The changing Conservative attitudes are considered in the context of the wider changes in women’s roles in society in the period. Chapter six explores the relationship between women and men of the Conservative Parliamentary Party, as well as men’s impact on the selected women’s issues. These relationships were crucial to enhancing women’s roles within the party, as it is widely recognised that women would not have been able to attain high positions or affect the issues as they did without help from male colleagues. Finally, the female Labour MPs in the alteration of women’s issues is discussed in Chapter seven. Labour women’s relationships both with their party and with Conservative women are also examined.

    Going, Going, Gone: How Safe Is David Cameron?

    Going, Going, Gone: How Safe is David Cameron? democraticaudit.com /2016/06/03/going-going-gone-how-safe-is-david-cameron/ By Democratic Audit UK 2016-6-3 Last weekend, rumors were once again abound of plots to remove David Cameron as leader. Ben Worthy assesses the Prime Minister’s position in light of the latest threat, and writes that although it appears probable he will survive attempts to topple him in the short-term, the plots, rumours and rebellion will continue. David Cameron at first Cabinet meeting in 2010. Credit: Crown Copyright The UK’s EU referendum has turned into a series of threats against Cameron himself. The weekend was dominated by swirling rumours about Conservative MPs plotting to remove their leader with talk of plots of 50 MPs, (metaphorical) ‘stabbing in the front’ and letters to the 1922 committee. This isn’t the first time Cameron has faced challenges to his position. So how safe is he now? The rules for triggering an election for a Conservative party leader are clear. To ‘secure a confidence vote, 15% of Conservative Members of Parliament (“in receipt of the Conservative Whip”) must submit a request for such a vote, in writing, to the Chairman of the 1922 Committee’. This means 50 MPs need to sign a letter. There are 330 Conservative whipped MPs in the House of Commons. It is estimated that around 110 are definitely Brexit versus 128 MPs for Remain with the rest unknown. There are likely enough unhappy MPs to get 50 signatures on a letter. How these numbers may translate into a leadership election is less clear.

AREA COUNCILS MET FROM TWO TO FOUR TIMES YEARLY, WHILE AREA EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES FUNCTIONED IN THE INTERIM. AN AGENT OF THE CENTRAL OFFICE REPRESENTED THE INTERESTS OF THE NATIONAL PARTY, ACTING AS HONORARY SECRETARY FOR THE AREA COUNCIL. THESE REGIONAL ORGANIZATIONS IN THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY, WHICH HAD NO RESTRICTIONS ON THE TOPICS THEY COULD DISCUSS, EXERCISED SOMEWHAT MORE INDEPENDENCE OF ACTION THAN THEIR COUNTERPARTS IN THE LABOUR PARTY. (JANDA, 1980: 209) Norton notes that, "In terms of its internal organization, the party is hierarchical." (Norton, 1991:136) The hierarchy runs from the national organs through eleven regional offices in England, one in Wales and two in Scotland. Concerning the hierarchy and flow of authority, Kelly notes that even at the Conservative Local Government Conference and Exhibition, matters were arranged and managed at the national level. (Kelly,1989:58-9) [By Paul Sum] The Conservative Party in its 1974 Manifesto (Craig, 1975: 446), agreed the following: "In Scotland, we will: set up a Scottish Assembly; give the Secretary of State for Scotland, acting with the Scottish assembly, the power to decide how to spend Scotland's share of the U.K. budget; establish a Scottish development fund to provide substantial help with both the new problems created by oil, and with Scotland's old deprived areas; transfer the Oil Division of the Department of Energy to Scotland." [By Renata Chopra] As described in the Conservative Party publication The Right Approach (1976), Scotland feels that the Parliament and the government are out of touch with its needs.
