There is still a long way to go, but this is a start and to get this far is a truly amazing achievement. Several of our families have taken part in research already.

  • Monetary Policy Oversight in Comparative Perspective: Britain and America During the Financial Crisis
    Political Science and Political Economy Working Paper Department of Government London School of Economics No. 3/2014 Monetary Policy Oversight in Comparative Perspective: Britain and America during the Financial Crisis Cheryl Schonhardt-Bailey (LSE) Monetary Policy Oversight in Comparative Perspective: Britain and America During the Financial Crisis Cheryl Schonhardt-Bailey Government Department London School of Economics and Political Science Houghton Street London WC2A 2AE [email protected] http://personal.lse.ac.uk/schonhar/ This study examines deliberation on monetary policy oversight in the US and UK between 2006 and 2009. It employs reciprocity as the key criterion for judging the quality of monetary policy oversight deliberation (i.e., committee participants are expected to engage with one another, taking up and responding to the reasons offered by other participants). Using automated content analysis, the empirical finding is that reciprocity is clearly evident in the parliamentary oversight committee, but much less so in the two congressional committees. The two country cases represent very different approaches to legislative oversight, with the UK demonstrating a committee approach both in terms of the testimony of the monetary policy body and of the behaviour of the legislative committee, while the US demonstrates a focus on a series of individual contributions both from the Fed chairman and Members of Congress. In the US, this appears to allow greater scope to divert discussion away from the primary focus of hearings (i.e., monetary policy). 1 I. Introduction In normal economic times, clashes between politicians and central bankers in legislative oversight hearings on monetary policy are not typically considered worthy of headline news coverage.

  • Jewel Theatre Audience Guide Addendum: London Gentlemen’S Clubs and the Explorers Club in New York City
    Jewel Theatre Audience Guide Addendum: London Gentlemen’s Clubs and the Explorers Club in New York City directed by Art Manke by Susan Myer Silton, Dramaturg © 2019 GENTLEMEN’S CLUBS IN LONDON Nell Benjamin describes her fictional Explorers Club in the opening stage directions of the play: We are in the bar of the Explorers club. It is decorated in high Victorian style, with dark woods, leather chairs, and weird souvenirs from various expeditions like snowshoes, African masks, and hideous bits of taxidermy. There is a sofa, a bar, and several cushy club chairs. A stair leads up to club bedrooms. Pictured above is the bar at the Savile Club in London, which is a traditional gentlemen’s club founded in 1868 and located at 69 Brook Street in Mayfair. Most of the gentlemen’s clubs in existence in London in 1879, the time of the play, had been established earlier, and were clustered together closer to the heart of the city. Clubs in the Pall Mall area were: The Athenaeum, est. 1824; The Travellers Club, est. 1819; The (original) Reform Club, 1832; The Army and Navy Club, 1837; Guard’s Club, 1810; United University Club, est. 1821, which became the Oxford and Cambridge Club in 1830; and the Reform Club (second location), est. 1836. Clubs on St. James Street were: Whites, est. 1693; Brooks, est. 1762; Boodles, est. 1762; The Carlton Club, 1832; Pratt’s, est. 1857; and Arthur’s, est. 1827. Clubs in St. James Square were: The East India Club, est. 1849 and Pratt’s, est. 1857.

  • Who Founded the East India Club?
    Who founded the East India Club? There has long been an assumption that the East India Company founded the club. This is probably not correct. The exact origins of the East India Club are indistinct. Several versions of our founding exist. A report in The Times of 6 July 1841 refers to the East India Club Rooms at 26 Suffolk Street, off Pall Mall East. It says that the rooms are open for the accommodation of the civil and military officers, of Her Majesty’s and the Hon. East India Company’s service, members of Parliament, and private and professional gentlemen. The clubrooms seem to have been in use for some time because the report also exhorts Major D D Anderson, Madam Fitzgerald, Captain Alfred Lewis, Mr M Farquhar from Canada, Lieutenant Edward Stewart, and another Stewart Esquire to come and pick up their unclaimed letters. This is supported by Sir Arthur Happel, Indian Civil Service (1891 to 1975) who says that the club grew out of a hostel for East India Company servants maintained in London to help them with leave problems. The records of the East India United Services Club date from 1851. An article of July 1853 cited in Foursome in St James’s states that the club as we know it was born at a meeting held at the British Hotel in Cockspur Street in February 1849. The consequence was the acquisition of No 16 St James’s Square as the clubhouse, and the holding of an inaugural dinner there on 1 January 1850. Edward Boehm – who owned the house in 1815 when Major Percy presented the French Eagles to the Prince Regent after the Battle of Waterloo on 21 June – went bankrupt, and a Robert Vyner bought it from him.

  • 'Marsh Exposes the Basic Problem of the Euro: No One's in Charge
    ‘Marsh exposes the basic problem of the euro: no one’s in charge. Monetary union was a colossally risky experiment launched without adequate crisis management precautions and without centralised political oversight. Unlike the other countries, Britain properly analysed the risks and decided, rightly, to stay out. It’s a pity that other Europeans didn’t show similar caution.’ —Lord (John) McFall, member of the House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee, former chair, House of Commons Treasury Committee ‘David Marsh has once again placed his finger on the gaping wounds that continue to afflict the European Monetary Union. While not everyone will agree with his conclusions – and a great many more will hope that he is wrong – he has built a cogent case for being very worried about the future of the single currency.’ —Prof. Michael Burda, School of Business and Economics, Humboldt University of Berlin ‘Europe is brilliantly right because it has achieved zero prospect of war, an achievement no other region can match. Yet it’s also brilliantly wrong because it has tried to achieve an impossible dream: monetary union without fiscal union. Marsh explains well the European mess and even suggests a solution. His book is a must-read for European policy-makers. Even Asians may learn a lesson or two.’ —Prof. Kishore Mahbubani, dean, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore ‘A brilliant and incisive analysis of the intractable practical and political problems facing the euro and why the hopes of its founders have been disappointed.’ —Lord (Christopher) Tugendhat, chair, House of Lords EU External Affairs Committee, former European commissioner ‘The fate of the euro area is the most momentous public issue of our times and there is no better guide than this gripping, well-informed study by the leading expert on its genesis and development.’ —Prof.
