  • The Appeal of Fascism to the British Aristocracy During the Inter-War Years, 1919-1939
    THE APPEAL OF FASCISM TO THE BRITISH ARISTOCRACY DURING THE INTER-WAR YEARS, 1919-1939 THESIS PRESENTED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OFARTS. By Kenna Toombs NORTHWEST MISSOURI STATE UNIVERSITY MARYVILLE, MISSOURI AUGUST 2013 The Appeal of Fascism 2 Running Head: THE APPEAL OF FASCISM TO THE BRITISH ARISTOCRACY DURING THE INTER-WAR YEARS, 1919-1939 The Appeal of Fascism to the British Aristocracy During the Inter-War Years, 1919-1939 Kenna Toombs Northwest Missouri State University THESIS APPROVED Date Dean of Graduate School Date The Appeal of Fascism 3 Abstract This thesis examines the reasons the British aristocracy became interested in fascism during the years between the First and Second World Wars. As a group the aristocracy faced a set of circumstances unique to their class. These circumstances created the fear of another devastating war, loss of Empire, and the spread of Bolshevism. The conclusion was determined by researching numerous books and articles. When events required sacrifice to save king and country, the aristocracy forfeited privilege and wealth to save England.

  • Are Government Spending Multipliers State Dependent? Evidence from U.K
    Are Government Spending Multipliers State Dependent? Evidence from U.K. Historical Data Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for distinction in the degree of Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in Economics Gabriel P. Fritsch Advisor: Aleh Tsyvinski Yale College New Haven, Connecticut April 3, 2017 Abstract A recurring question in macroeconomic policy debates is whether government multipliers are higher during periods of economic slack or when interest rates are at or near the zero lower bound. This paper aims to shed further light on this issue by expanding the recent literature pioneered by Ramey (2011), which uses the defense narrative approach to identify shocks in the expected present value of government spending. Using newly constructed quarterly historical data for the U.K. from 1910 to 2016, I estimate multipliers that are below unity irrespective of the amount of slack in the economy or the monetary policy regime. Overall, there is some evidence that multipliers are higher during periods of high unemployment in the U.K. but no evidence of larger multipliers at the zero lower bound. 1 Introduction With the onset of the Great Recession in 2009, questions regarding the effectiveness of spending stimuli and the merits of austerity returned to the forefront of the macroeconomic policy debate in developed economies faced with persistently high unemployment and the need for eventual fiscal consolidations. This discussion has most recently been revamped in the United Kingdom following its decision to leave the European Union and the subsequent deteriorating economic outlook due to the uncertainty surrounding the exit process, with the UK Treasury signaling a shift towards easier fiscal policy.1 Questions concerning the magnitude of the government spending multiplier and whether it changes according to different states of the economy are central to this debate.

Ogles Dean, College of Arts and Sciences iii Abstract DAVIS, ROBERT THOMAS II, Ph.D., August 2008, History The Dilemma of NATO Strategy, 1949-1968 (422 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Peter John Brobst This study is a reappraisal of the strategic dilemma of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in the Cold War. This dilemma revolves around the problem of articulating a strategic concept for a military alliance in the nuclear era. NATO was born of a perceived need to defend Western Europe from a Soviet onslaught. It was an imperative of the early alliance to develop a military strategy and force posture to defend Western Europe should such a war break out. It was not long after the first iteration of strategy took shape than the imperative for a military defense of Europe receded under the looming threat of thermonuclear war. The advent of thermonuclear arsenals in both the United States and Soviet Union brought with it the potential destruction of civilization should war break out. This realization made statesmen on both sides of the Iron Curtain undergo what has been referred to as an ongoing process of nuclear learning.
