This work examines that cultural transformation, paying particular attention to the processes of cultural assimilation and resistance to the introduction and imposition of American social values and its southern racial corollary: Jim Crow. As this work makes clear, the transition to American identity transmuted the cultural foundations of French- and Creole-speaking Creole communities. World War I signalled early transformative changes and over the next three decades, the region saw the introduction of English language, new industries, an increasing number of Protestant denominations, and the forceful imposition of racialized identities and racial segregation.

  • Tee 1919 Race Riots in Britain: Ti-Lir Background and Conseolences
    TEE 1919 RACE RIOTS IN BRITAIN: TI-LIR BACKGROUND AND CONSEOLENCES JACOLEUNE .ENKINSON FOR TI-E DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH 1987 ABSTRACT OF THESIS This thesis contains an empirically-based study of the race riots in Britain, which looks systematically at each of the nine major outbreaks around the country. It also looks at the background to the unrest in terms of the growing competition in the merchant shipping industry in the wake of the First World War, a trade in which most Black residents in this country were involved. One result of the social and economic dislocation following the Armistice was a general increase in the number of riots and disturbances in this country. This factor serves to put into perspective the anti-Black riots as an example of increased post-war tension, something which was occurring not only in this country, but worldwide, often involving recently demobilised men, both Black and white. In this context the links between the riots in Britain and racial unrest in the West Indies and the United States are discussed; as is the growth of 'popular racism' in this country and the position of the Black community in Britain pre- and post- riot. The methodological approach used is that of Marxist historians of the theory of riot, although this study in part, offers a revision of the established theory. ACKNOWLEDcEJvNTS I would like to thank Dr. Ian Duffield, my tutor and supervisor at Edinburgh University, whose guidance and enthusiasm helped me along the way to the completion of this thesis.

  • The Decline of Rioting and Its Strange Persistence: Crowd Life in Nineteenth Century Britain
    THE DECLINE OF RIOTING AND ITS STRANGE PERSISTENCE: CROWD LIFE IN NINETEENTH CENTURY BRITAIN MATTEO TIRATELLI (12/07/2019) ABSTRACT: During the nineteenth century, the level of rioting in Britain declined significantly, but this change was not consistent across the country. This presents us with a significant historical challenge: to explain the uneven and irregular decline in rioting. Most of the existing theories subsume riots within larger schemas, treating them as one interchangeable element in the wider ‘repertoire of contention’ or in the ‘politics of provisions’. They also fail to account for the particular timing and trajectory of the decline. My contribution is twofold. Empirically, I offer a new, systematic catalogue of 414 riots from Manchester, Liverpool and Glasgow between 1800 and 1939. Then I use that wealth of archival material to propose a new account of the uneven decline of rioting in Britain over the nineteenth century. I argue that the decline of rioting was due to the closing down of the social and cultural space that sustained it. More specifically, it was due to the decline in the acceptance of active and assertive crowds as part of urban life, and the public use of violence; the two dimensions of what I call crowd life. At a theoretical level, I also suggest a novel approach to the study of rioting, treating it as a practice with its own particular traditions and heritage. This allows us to better account for the decline of rioting and also to extend and refine Charles Tilly’s famous concept of the ‘repertoire of contention’.

  • Upper Legislative Houses in North Atlantic Small Powers 1800–Present Edited by Nikolaj Bijleveld, Colin Grittner, David E
    Reforming Senates This new study of senates in small powers across the North Atlantic shows that the establishment and the reform of these upper legislative houses have followed remarkably parallel trajectories. Senate reforms emerged in the wake of deep political crises within the North Atlantic world and were influenced by the comparatively weak positions of small powers. Reformers responded to crises and constantly looked beyond borders and oceans for inspiration to keep their senates relevant. Nikolaj Bijleveld, historian, is a staff member at the University of Groningen. Colin Grittner teaches Canadian history in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and has held postdoctoral fellowships at the University of British Columbia and the University of New Brunswick. David E. Smith is a former president of the Canadian Political Science Association and the author of a number of books on the Canadian Parliament and Canadian federalism.
