The Father of the House in the current (2019) Parliament is Sir Peter Bottomley, who was first elected to the House in a by-election in 1975. Under Standing Order No 1, as long as the Father of the House is not a Minister, he takes the Chair when the House elects a Speaker. He has no other formal duties. There is evidence of the title having been used in the 18th century. However, the origin of the term is not clear and it is likely that different qualifications were used in the past. The Father of the House is not necessarily the oldest Member.

(2014). Methodological Framework: Parlamentary Debates. INFOCORE Working Paper 2014/10. Online available at http://www.infocore.eu/wp- content/uploads/2015/11/Methodological-Framework-WP8_Final2.pdf INFOCORE Deliverable D8.1 1 www.infocore.eu/results/ Methodological Framework of WP8: Parliamentary Debates Berganza, Herrero & Carratalá METHODOLOGICAL FRAMEWORK OF WP8: PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES (EXECUTIVE SUMMARY) Work Package (WP) 8 studies parliamentary discourses concerning the following violent conflicts: Israel- Palestine, Syria, Macedonia, Kosovo, Burundi, and DR Congo. In this regard, WP8 analyzes debates, interpellations, speeches, resolutions, and declarations addressed by parliamentary members of conflict countries, but also of European Parliament (UE), Bundestag (Germany), National Assembly (France), and House of Commons (United Kingdom). Thus, our main research objective is to identify the conceptual categories and semantic structures used to construct the discourses of Members of Parliament (MPs) and which of them may influence the development of conflicts. In this respect, mainly relevant are the flows of contents generated by news media, social media, strategic communications, and those present in the political debates. They seem to be interconnected, so that parliamentary debates and resolutions could influence and also be influenced by the contents spread in the other forums/outlets. In the first case, MPs act as sources of discursive patterns; in the second case, they perform the role of receivers of these patterns which can also be transformed while addressing the Parliament.

  • Making Lifelines from Frontlines; 1
    The Rhine and European Security in the Long Nineteenth Century Throughout history rivers have always been a source of life and of conflict. This book investigates the Central Commission for the Navigation of the Rhine’s (CCNR) efforts to secure the principle of freedom of navigation on Europe’s prime river. The book explores how the most fundamental change in the history of international river governance arose from European security concerns. It examines how the CCNR functioned as an ongoing experiment in reconciling national and common interests that contributed to the emergence of Eur- opean prosperity in the course of the long nineteenth century. In so doing, it shows that modern conceptions and practices of security cannot be under- stood without accounting for prosperity considerations and prosperity poli- cies. Incorporating research from archives in Great Britain, Germany, and the Netherlands, as well as the recently opened CCNR archives in France, this study operationalises a truly transnational perspective that effectively opens the black box of the oldest and still existing international organisation in the world in its first centenary. In showing how security-prosperity considerations were a driving force in the unfolding of Europe’s prime river in the nineteenth century, it is of interest to scholars of politics and history, including the history of international rela- tions, European history, transnational history and the history of security, as well as those with an interest in current themes and debates about transboundary water governance. Joep Schenk is lecturer at the History of International Relations section at Utrecht University, Netherlands. He worked as a post-doctoral fellow within an ERC-funded project on the making of a security culture in Europe in the nineteenth century and is currently researching international environmental cooperation and competition in historical perspective.
