How to Keep up with the Commonwealth How to Keep up with the Commonwealth The most useful tool is The Round Table: The Commonwealth Journal of International Affairs. Founded in 1910 by the ‘Round Table Moot’, this quarterly journal published anonymous reports until 1966. It ceased publication briefly between 1981 and 1983. Publishing five issues a year from 2000, its regular features include ‘Commonwealth Update’ by Derek Ingram and ‘Documentation’, which provides the full texts of such material as Chogm Communiqués and C-Mag reports. Leading Commonwealth figures, as well as commentators and academics, con- tribute signed articles. The Round Table is available on line at <www.carfax.co.uk >. The official reference book is The Commonwealth Yearbook (produced since 1996 by Hanson Cooke for the Commonwealth Secretariat). It is the successor to The Colonial Office List and The Commonwealth Relations Office List, which were followed by The Commonwealth Office Year Book in 1967 after the CO and CRO had merged. The Foreign & Commonwealth Office (created by a further merger in 1968) changed the title to The Commonwealth Yearbook in 1987, and in 1993 trans- ferred the title and responsibility to the Commonwealth Secretariat. The format was changed from 1996 in association with the new pub- lishing partner. The other important official reference book is Commonwealth at the Summit, vol. 1 Communiqués of Commonwealth Heads of Government Meetings 1944–1986 (1987) and vol. 2 Communiqués of Commonwealth Heads of Government Meetings 1987–1995 (1997). The texts from the 1997 and subsequent Chogms were published by the Secretariat in sep- arate pamphlets. Other useful reference works include: The 231 232 A Guide to the Contemporary Commonwealth Commonwealth Minister’s Reference Book (from 1989/90 by Kensington Publications); Alan Palmer, Dictionary of the British Empire and Commonwealth (1996), and House of Commons, Session 1995–6, Foreign Affairs Committee First Report The Future Role of the Commonwealth, vol. 1, Report, together with the Proceedings of the Committee, vol. 2, Minutes of Evidence and Appendices (1996), which includes numerous very informative submissions from NGOs. Academic study of the Commonwealth is catered for by The Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth History (thrice yearly since 1972) and The Journal of Commonwealth and Comparative Politics (thrice yearly since 1974 as the successor of The Journal of Commonwealth Political Studies, started in 1961). Content details of both journals are available at <www.frankcass.com/jnls>. For the literary approach, Commonwealth: Essays and Studies (twice-yearly critical studies of the New Literatures in English) is published by the Société d’Etude des Pays du Commonwealth at the Languages Faculty, Dijon. The main inter-governmental organisations each produce magazines and periodic reports. The Commonwealth Secretariat issues the bi- monthly illustrated magazine Commonwealth Currents and the biennial Report of the Secretary-General. The Secretariat maintains a website, which includes the texts of news releases and speeches as well as descriptive material on the structure and membership of the associa- tion: <www.thecommonwealth.org>. The CFTC produces biennial reports entitled Skills for Development. The Commonwealth Foundation has an illustrated news magazine Common Path; presents biennial reports for the Chogm; and maintains the website: <www.commonwealthfoundation.org>. The Commonwealth of Learning has two news publications, Connections and EdTech News. The COL reports biennially to the Chogm and has the websites <www.col.org> and <www.col.org/ colint>. CAB-International (the former Commonwealth Agricultural Bureaux until 1986) publishes each year a report, such as 99 In Review: Presenting CAB International and also Reports of Proceedings of its triennial Review Conferences. The component divisions maintain eight websites, which can all be accessed via the home site <www.cabi.org>.

Appendix Consultation Program Consultation Participants Foreword This report is a summary of the inaugural consultation of the International Negotiation Network (INN), held at The Carter Center of Emory University CCEU), in Atlanta, Georgia, January 14-17, 1992. The consultation brought together over 200 invited guests from 40 countries and more than 150 organizations or governments. It was made possible through the generous support of the Carnegie Corporation of New York, and shaped in part by that foundation's president, David Hamburg, who has served as one of the INN's advisors. The INN is first and perhaps foremost a network linking individuals, organizations, resources, and parties in conflict throughout the world. One of its most important functions is the ability to convene persons involved in common pursuits who seldom have the opportunity to meet one another. The participants in the consultation, whose names are listed in the appendix, represent a mix of parties engaged in conflicts, as well as a broad cross-section of diplomats, scholars, practitioners of "track-two" diplomacy and representatives of inter- governmental, regional and non-governmental organizations.

  • An Observance for Commonwealth Day 2015
    An Observance for Commonwealth Day 2015 In the presence of Her Majesty The Queen His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cornwall His Royal Highness The Duke of Cambridge Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge Monday 9th March 2015 at 3.15 pm A Young Commonwealth The Commonwealth theme for 2015 The Abbey is served by a hearing loop. Users should turn their hearing aids to the setting marked T. Members of the congregation are kindly requested to refrain from using private cameras, video, or sound-recording equipment. Please ensure that mobile phones, pagers, and other electronic devices are switched off. It is my great pleasure, as Chairman of the Council of Commonwealth Societies, to welcome you to this very special event. In a deeply disturbed and uneasy world, the Commonwealth family assembles once again at Westminster Abbey to celebrate and give thanks for our unity, friendship, shared purpose and values. With half of the Commonwealth’s peoples being under twenty-five, this is the family and the network in which tomorrow meets today, in which the aspiring young who are the future come together with those who have built the past and the present. Today there are forces and trends at work more powerful than any single government that are binding together the young people of all Commonwealth countries as never before—and in ways which would have astounded their forbears. A new kind of Commonwealth is emerging. Instantaneous contact, and constant and open communication unite schoolchildren and students, professional people of all kinds, sportsmen and women in every field, entrepreneurs, ideas and investors, artists and authors, faiths and friends in a daily conversation and worldwide association the like of which exists nowhere else.

  • “Naughty Willie” at Rhodes House
    Gowers of Uganda : Conduct and Misconduct Being an abridged version of an article forthcoming in ARAS : Gowers of Uganda: The Public and Private Life of a Forgotten Colonial Governor Roger Scott, University of Queensland I Apparently, not a lot has been written about the conduct of the private lives of colonial governors. This is in contrast to the information provided in histories and novels and films about white settler society in southern and eastern Africa. In my conference contribution, I want to add to this scarce literature. My forthcoming article in ARAS has a wider compass, including an appreciation of the intersection between the public and private life of a forgotten governor of Uganda, Sir William Gowers. Both pieces draw upon original archival and obscure secondary sources examined in the context of a wider project, a biography by my wife focussed on another member of the Gowers family, her paternal grand-father, Sir Ernest Gowers. These primary sources1 provide testimony from, among others, the Prince of Wales and his aide-de-campe, that Gowers was outgoing, entertaining, and full of bravado as well as personal bravery. The same files also reveal that his personal life became a source of widespread scandal among the East African Europeans, especially missionaries, and it required the intervention of his mentor Lord Lugard to fight off his dismissal by the Colonial Secretary. William was in other words a prototype of the cliché of the romantic literature of his era: the “Black Sheep” of the family. William and his younger brother Ernest were provided with an education at Rugby and Cambridge explicitly designed for entry to the public service.

Personalities and Perceptions: Churchill, De Gaulle, and British-Free French Relations 1940-1941 By: Samantha Sullivan Advised by: Drs. Steven Zdatny, Andrew Buchanan, and Meaghan Emery University of Vermont History Department Honors College Thesis April 17, 2019 Acknowledgements: Nearly half of my time at UVM was spent working on this project. Beginning as a seminar paper for Professor Zdatny’s class in Fall 2018, my research on Churchill and De Gaulle slowly grew into the thesis that follows. It was a collaborative effort that allowed me to combine all of my fields of study from my entire university experience. This project took me to London and Cambridge to conduct archival research and made for many late nights on the second floor of the Howe Library. I feel an overwhelming sense of pride and accomplishment for this thesis that is reflective of the work I have done at UVM.
