The evolution and development of the Canadian government's policy will be examined in the context of increasing Canadian autonomy within the British Empire/Commonwealth- The incidents that prompted the development of a Canadian made formal policy will also be discussed.

    Dames in New Zealand: Gender, Representation and the Royal Honours System, 1917-2000 A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History in the University of Canterbury by Karen Fox University of Canterbury 2005 Contents Abstract List of Figures ii Abbreviations iii Acknowledgements v Introduction 1 Chapter One: 28 An elite male institution: reproducing British honours in New Zealand Chapter Two: 58 In her own right: feminism, ideas of femininity and titles for women Chapter Three: 89 The work of dames and knights: exceptional women and traditional images of the feminine Chapter Four: 119 The work of dames and knights: traditional patterns in honours and non­ traditional work for women Conclusion 148 Appendix One: 166 Honours awarded in New Zealand, 1917-2000 Appendix Two: 174 Database of titular honours, 1917-2000 Bibliography 210 19 MAY Z005 Abstract The New Zealand royal honours system, as a colonial reproduction of an elite British system with a white male norm, has been largely overlooked in all fields of scholarship. Yet, as a state expression of what is valued in society, honours provide a window into shifts in society. This study of dames and knights is undertaken in the context of the changes in the lives of New Zealand women in the twentieth century. Situated in a changing and shifting environment, the honours system has itself changed, influenced by the ebb and flow of the feminist movement, the decline of imperial and aristocratic forces, and New Zealand's evolving independence and identity. At the same time, the system has been in some respects static, slow to respond to charges of being an imperial anachronism, and, despite some change in what areas of service titles were granted for, remaining a gendered space focused on the traditionally male-dominated fields of politics, law and commerce.

  • Orders of Merit? Hierarchy, Distinction and the British Honours System, 1917-2004
    Orders of Merit? Hierarchy, Distinction and the British Honours System, 1917-2004 Tobias Harper Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Tobias Harper All rights reserved ABSTRACT Orders of Merit? Hierarchy, Distinction and the British Honours System, 1917-2004 Tobias Harper One of the central challenges in modern British historiography is the reconciliation of narratives about the nature and meaning of the British Empire with older themes of class and hierarchy. The historiographical shift to empire and away from class since the 1980s and 1990s coincided with a fundamental shift in Britain’s social structure and composition, which itself demands historical explanation. The history of the British honours system – an institution that has blended ideas of class hierarchy with meritocracy and service – can reveal much about social change in twentieth century Britain and its empire. Using a mixture of official and unofficial sources and organized chronologically, my dissertation charts the history of the honours system from the creation of the Order of the British Empire in 1917 to a major set of reforms at the end of the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first. Honours were an active tool of policy and social distinction. Government decisions about who should receive honours and what honours they should receive reveal the importance of different kinds of service and the social class of the individual to be honored. Applied across the whole empire, the system had a double edge: it produced loyalty and kept different social groups in their place.

  • ASH 3.D.I-Boulton-Cdnrra II
    Towards a More Canadian Regal-Regnal Achievement Part II. The Insignial Elements D’ARCY JONATHAN DACRE BOULTON Ph.D. (Penn.), D. Phil. (Oxon.), F.R.H.S.C., F.S.A., A.I.H. University of Notre Dame 3. Modifications to the Insignial Elements of the Achievement, and Suggestions for Additional Elements 3.1. The Current and Potential Species of Regal Insignia In the first part of this article I concerned myself with the modification of the primarily emblematic elements of the Canadian Regal- Regnal Achievement — those representing particular identity — in order to make them more effectively representative of the reality of the modern Canadian monarchy and its formal independence from that of the United Kingdom.87 The goal of representing armorially both the fact of national independence and that of the sovereignty of the Queen in right of Canada can also be achieved through the adoption of the full set of insignia traditionally used to mark monarchical sovereignty in the British tradition, modified to incorporate elements of the French tradition, and to create forms peculiar to Canada itself. Though primarily signs of status rather than identity, the insignia of kingship, or regalia, can and often do serve a secondary emblematic function. This is true because, unlike most insignia, they are restricted to a single dignity or pair of dignities (those of king and queen) in any particular kingdom, and are often given a form which — while conforming in a general way to that used by other monarchs of the same rank — have a number of characteristics peculiar to the kingdom in question.
