Kennedy Much attention is given to the anti-Catholicism of the Know- Nothing era of the 1850’s but little is paid to the equally virulent anti- Catholicism of the 1880’s and 1890’s when the fear of Catholics and the hostility displayed toward them was much greater than is generally believed. The relationship between Yankees and Irish in Boston in the last couple of decades of the nineteenth-century was marked by religious conflict, which explains much about both the defensive nature of Catholicism in Boston and the offensive nature of Irish-American -

Bank and History Historical Review No. 38 February 2018 La bella banca 100 years ago Banca d’America e d’Italia was founded. Deutsche Bank acquired it in 1986, and since 1994 it has been called “Deutsche Bank SpA”. Origins and founder The first four years of BAI‘s existence, following its foundation in Naples on 14 November 1917, already gives a clue as to the strongly international char- acter that the bank was to develop during the coming years. It was founded by a group of Italian businessmen under the name ‘Banca dell‘Italia Meridionale’, and already in August of its second year of operations the bank was appoint- ed as representative in Italy for two US banks: Bank of Italy and East River National Bank. The first chairman, Giuseppe Caravita, Prince of Sirignano (died in 1920), was one of the prime movers behind the initiative. The deputy chairman was Giuseppe Di Luggo, the managing director was Carlo Caprioli. The bank opened for business on 15 June 1918 in what would prove to be a difficult period immediately after the end of the Great War. Its capital was immediately increased from 3 million lire to 15 million lire and premises were rented in Naples at 11 Via Santa Brigida, in the same street where Deutsche Bank still has its main Naples office. The bank opened to the public even though building work on the premises was not finished until early 1920. In its 1919 annual report the bank writes, with charming sincerity, that „all shareholders, who know in what conditions our beloved officers and staff have to work, will want to thank them warmly, and will also want to extend their thanks to the customers, who have, perforce, to be received in cramped and unsuitable premises but who have never complained and have always praised the speed Banca dell‘Italia Meridionale in Naples with which the bank works and the politeness and competence of our staff“. -

Plea Bargaining, Discretionary Leniency and the Making of Political Authority
A r t i Plea bargaining, discretionary c l e leniency and the making of political authority by Mary E Vogel My purpose here is to explain why plea bargaining arose by taking a historical and macrosocial approach to the issues involved. hough highly controversial, the origins of plea This “formative era” of American law was one of bargaining are surprisingly obscure. While often perceived crisis of unrest and political instability in the Tthought to be either an innovation or a corruption republic. Its timing was crucial because it occurred just as of the American courts after World War II, it has much suffrage was “universally” extended. Together these events deeper historical roots. Plea bargaining is defined here as a evoked new state responses to social conflict (on the defendant’s entry of a guilty plea in anticipation of importance of timing in the convergence of social and concessions from the prosecutor or judge.

As the voting public grew, uncertainty ran high as to To explore the rise of plea bargaining, I examine its whether self-governance would prove viable and what path beginnings in antebellum Boston, Massachusetts – the first politics might take. This public concern also spawned the sustained instance of the practice known to exist.

AN ABSTRACT of the THESIS of Deirdre Anne Leahy for the Master of Arts (Name of Student) (Degree)
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Deirdre Anne Leahy for the Master of Arts (name of student) (degree) In History presented on April 4, 2005 Title: "The Irish and Insanity: Nativist Prejudice and the Institutionalization of Immigrants, 1845-186~ ~ Abstract Approved: ~,A The Irish in the 19th century were persecuted not only by their British colonial rulers in Ireland but also by their fellow Americans in the New World. One form of persecution, until now not fully recognized, was the institutionalization of the Irish into insane asylums. In the United States, many of the institutionalized Irish were not actually insane, but instead were being persecuted for their culture and for actions that differed from those of the middle-class Protestant majority of the United States. Social, political, religious, and economic persecution by native-born Americans had a dire effect on the lives of the Irish immigrants, and this persecution often took the form of false accusations of Irish insanity. With no one to protect or help them in America, and already suffering from the effects of the Famine, Irish immigrants became targets for the Nativists and other groups who feared the impact of the Irish on their society. In mid-nineteenth-century Massachusetts, the case study for this thesis, the people controlled the immigrants by placing them into institutions. Such institutionalizations differed greatly from those of today and were not always medically or psychologically justified. Rather, they were based on the belief (in the eyes of "native" Americans) that desperate poverty, strange cultural beliefs, and Catholicism caused Irish insanity. The Irish immigrants were condemned and treated as "insane" by those who were economically and politically stronger than they.
