  • Leadership and Change: Prime Ministers in the Post-War World - Alec Douglas-Home Transcript
    Leadership and Change: Prime Ministers in the Post-War World - Alec Douglas-Home Transcript Date: Thursday, 24 May 2007 - 12:00AM PRIME MINISTERS IN THE POST-WAR WORLD: ALEC DOUGLAS-HOME D.R. Thorpe After Andrew Bonar Law's funeral in Westminster Abbey in November 1923, Herbert Asquith observed, 'It is fitting that we should have buried the Unknown Prime Minister by the side of the Unknown Soldier'. Asquith owed Bonar Law no posthumous favours, and intended no ironic compliment, but the remark was a serious under-estimate. In post-war politics Alec Douglas-Home is often seen as the Bonar Law of his times, bracketed with his fellow Scot as an interim figure in the history of Downing Street between longer serving Premiers; in Bonar Law's case, Lloyd George and Stanley Baldwin, in Home's, Harold Macmillan and Harold Wilson. Both Law and Home were certainly 'unexpected' Prime Ministers, but both were also 'under-estimated' and they made lasting beneficial changes to the political system, both on a national and a party level. The unexpectedness of their accessions to the top of the greasy pole, and the brevity of their Premierships (they were the two shortest of the 20th century, Bonar Law's one day short of seven months, Alec Douglas-Home's two days short of a year), are not an accurate indication of their respective significance, even if the precise details of their careers were not always accurately recalled, even by their admirers. The Westminster village is often another world to the general public. Stanley Baldwin was once accosted on a train from Chequers to London, at the height of his fame, by a former school friend.

  • Thatcherism and Women: After Seven Years
    THATCHERISM AND WOMEN: AFTER SEVEN YEARS Elizabeth Wilson In 1979 the Conservative Party won the British general election led by a woman-paradoxically, after ten years of leftwing feminist activism, it was the Tories that gave the British their first woman Prime Minister. And the most paradoxical aspect of all has been that Margaret Thatcher, the 'exceptional woman' par excellence, has done nothing to advance the cause of women, indeed during her period of office the quality of life for the majority of women in this country has deteriorated. This has been as a direct result of the tremendous class attack launched by the Conservative government against working people, both women and men. The initial reaction of the British left, and this included many feminists, was on the one hand disbelief that the British people could have voted such a reactionary government into power, and on the other the rapid construction of an explanation for this event in terms of an ideology of t hatcher ism'.' The development of this concept rested on a conviction that disillusionment with socialism and progress had willed the whole populace to the Right. Bob ~esso~~and others have recently mounted an extensive and measured critique of the 'Thatcherism' thesis, particularly as it has been developed in the work of Stuart Hall and in a series of articles published in Marxism Today. Jessop and his co-authors argue, for example, that Stuart Hall's notion of 'authoritarian populism', upon which 'Thatcherism' is based, is ambiguous and incoherent. They suggest that the Left has too readily accepted the Right's own assessment of itself and its decisive ideological break with the past.

  • 'Why Tories Won: Accounting for Conservative Party Electoral
    'Why Tories Won: Accounting for Conservative Party Electoral Success from Baldwin to Cameron' Dr Richard Carr, Churchill College, Cambridge - 15 November 2012 [email protected] Thank you Allen for that kind introduction. Thank you too, of course, to Jamie Balfour and the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust for the support that enabled the research that I will lay out in part today. The research grant was extremely valuable for an early career academic – providing the means to support archival research that still informs my work some two years later, which has borne fruit in three of the articles that will be referred to at the bottom of the slides behind me, and in three monographs on twentieth century British politics I am due to publish in 2013. 6 publications and counting therefore owe part of their genesis to this grant, not withstanding the good work of my two sometime co-authors throughout this period, Dr Bradley Hart (a former PhD student here at Churchill College and current lecturer at California State University Fresno), and Rachel Reeves MP.1 By final way of preamble I must also thank the staff here at the Churchill Archives Centre, and indeed the Master, for various kindnesses over the years – not least in relation to a conference Bradley and I played a small role in coordinating in November 2010, during my By-Fellowship.2 So, today’s lecture is entitled ‘Why Tories Won: Accounting for Conservative Party Electoral Success from Baldwin to Cameron.’ Now, given Stanley Baldwin became Conservative Party leader in 1923, and David Cameron – Boris and the electorate permitting – seems likely to serve until at least 2015, that is quite an expanse of time to cover in 40 minutes, and broad brush strokes – not to say, missed policy areas - are inevitable.

  • Acculturation and Intergroup Dynamics 1 RUNNING HEAD
    Acculturation and Intergroup Dynamics 1 RUNNING HEAD: ACCULTURATION AND INTERGROUP DYNAMICS The Identity Dynamics of Acculturation and Multiculturalism: Situating Acculturation in Context1 Seth J. Schwartz University of Miami, USA Vivian L. Vignoles and Rupert Brown University of Sussex, UK Hanna Zagefka Royal Holloway University of London, UK TO APPEAR IN: Handbook of Multicultural Identity (Verónica Benet-Martínez and Ying-Yi Hong, Editors). Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press. 1 We are extremely grateful to David Sam, Ron Fischer, and an anonymous reviewer for their valuable comments on a previous version of this chapter. Acculturation and Intergroup Dynamics 2 Abstract We discuss the identity processes involved in acculturation and multiculturalism, drawing on insights from various social psychological theories of identity. According to self-categorization theory, people are especially likely to view their cultural values and practices as self-defining in situations of intercultural contact. Social identity theory suggests that members of cultural majorities and minorities will find various ways of maintaining the positive distinctiveness of their cultural identities: for example, migrants may compete directly with receiving-society individuals (e.g., Asian Americans in science and mathematics), or they may find creative ways of affirming cultural differences (e.g., opening restaurants specializing in heritage-culture cuisine). However, multicultural national contexts can be understood not only in terms of intergroup relations, but also in terms of intragroup dynamics by which members of different cultural groups negotiate and defend competing definitions of a superordinate national identity. Drawing on integrated threat theory and on motivated identity construction theory, we suggest that these intergroup and intragroup dynamics will bring a wider range of identity motives and processes into play.

  • Norman Gash 1912–2009
    NORMAN GASH Norman Gash 1912–2009 BORN ON 16 JANUARY 1912 at Meerut, in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, Norman Gash was one of seven children, two of whom died in infancy; his mother Kate Hunt, a bootmaker’s daughter, had married his father Frederick Gash in 1902. From a family long established as agricultural labourers in Berkshire and Oxfordshire, Frederick was stationed in Meerut. Rising from private to regimental sergeant major in the Royal Berkshire Regiment, he retired from the army in 1921, and then worked for the Inland Revenue. So authoritarian was he that his son, even when a professor in his forties, would be summoned when needed with the cry ‘Boy! Boy!’ Yet Norman was deeply upset when his father died, and in 1982 asked a colleague, then about to visit India, to find the elderly Sikh ex-soldier who maintained the baptismal font in Meerut’s old Garrison Church, and ‘give him some annas from me’. The favourite children were (for Frederick) the eldest, Billy; and (for Kate) the youngest, Tim. So Norman’s childhood saw relative emotional deprivation. All the Gash children received a good education, however, and Norman attended two elementary schools in Reading, Wilson Road School and Palmer School, before winning a scholarship to Reading School, an ancient grammar school. There he excelled at Latin, French and English, canvassed for the Liberal Party, and published at seventeen in the school magazine a rather mannered but eloquent and learned essay on ‘Meredith’s and Hardy’s conception of Napoleon’. Yet in this somewhat cold, unpolished, and unintellectual family, scholarly achievement did not improve relations with his brothers; their uncomprehending reaction was more to jeer than tease.

Chapter 8 45 MINUTES FROM DOOM! TONY BLAIR AND THE RADICAL BIBLE REBRANDED 1. Spiritual and Religious: The Political Theology of Tony Blair By the turn of the millennium, the Thatcher revolution in political think- ing was over, both in the sense that she was now a ¿gure often deemed ‘toxic’ and that the general tenets of Thatcherism had simultaneously been accepted by the main political parties and culturally normalised. Indeed, Thatcher famously claimed that her greatest legacy was New Labour. By the time Tony Blair (b. 1953) came to power in 1997, issues surrounding Christianity and the Bible had changed.1 Thatcher faced a Church of England prepared to confront her on issues of social justice, inner-city tensions, and welfare. After her third election victory in 1987, and the ¿nal stage of her embedding of Thatcherism, the Church shifted its attention more abstractly towards the worries about the perils of materialism. In the longer term, high-pro¿le concerns with poverty would become more internationally focused (e.g.

  • Class, Culture and Morality: a Sociological Analysis of Neo-Conservatism
    Class, culture and morality: a sociological analysis of neo-conservatism Brian Elliott and David McCrone Abstract In Britain, as in many other westem countries, there emerged in the micl-1970s a variety of business associations, policy and research institutes and political leagues, committed not only to the restoration of a Conservative government, but also to a much broader refurbishing of conservatism. A network of organizations, individuals and ideas grew up that became identified as the New Right. The New Right, which clearly has an international character, was generated by economic and political crises, but it was nurtured by a variety of resentments and discontents whose roots lay in structural and cultural changes that had developed over the whole post-war period. Drawing, in part, upon interviews with leaders of the organisations that did most to mobilize opinion behind the New Right in Britain, the article examines the major changes - particularly those in class structure and in culture - to which the new conservatives were reacting. It explores the major ideological strands - libertarian, neo-liberal and conservative - and looks at the attempts by the New Right to use these to produce changes not only in economic policy but in the cultural and moral fabric of society. The 1970s was a decade of social movements. In Britaiti, as in most western countries, there was evident dissatisfaction with the working of liberal democratic institutions. Parliament was claimed to have lost power to the executive; the mass parties, it was said, fudged and compromised and were no longer respmnsive to their rank and file supporters; important issues were inadequately represented in political debate.
