  • The Involvement of the Women of the South Wales Coalfield In

    The Involvement of the Women of the South Wales Coalfield In

    “Not Just Supporting But Leading”: The Involvement of the Women of the South Wales Coalfield in the 1984-85 Miners’ Strike By Rebecca Davies Enrolment: 00068411 Thesis submitted for Doctor of Philosophy degree at the University of Glamorgan February 2010. ABSTRACT The 1984-85 miners’ strike dramatically changed the face of the South Wales Valleys. This dissertation will show that the women’s groups that played such a crucial supportive role in it were not the homogenous entity that has often been portrayed. They shared some comparable features with similar groups in English pit villages but there were also qualitative differences between the South Wales groups and their English counterparts and between the different Welsh groups themselves. There is evidence of tensions between the Welsh groups and disputes with the communities they were trying to assist, as well as clashes with local miners’ lodges and the South Wales NUM. At the same time women’s support groups, various in structure and purpose but united in the aim of supporting the miners, challenged and shifted the balance of established gender roles The miners’ strike evokes warm memories of communities bonding together to fight for their survival. This thesis investigates in detail the women involved in support groups to discover what impact their involvement made on their lives afterwards. Their role is contextualised by the long-standing tradition of Welsh women’s involvement in popular politics and industrial disputes; however, not all women discovered a new confidence arising from their involvement. But others did and for them this self-belief survived the strike and, in some cases, permanently altered their own lives.

Furthermore, cultural activities or experiences rarely fail to touch or enhance every visitor’s experience. This document sets out a strategic framework for action by both the Board and our partners to develop Wales’ potential as a cultural tourism destination. Our vision is for Wales to be recognised internationally as a destination offering a quality cultural tourism experience based on our unique culture which forms an essential part of the overall visitor experience.
  • Oral History and Mining Heritage in Wales and Cornwall

    Oral History and Mining Heritage in Wales and Cornwall

    Heritage and Memory: Oral History and Mining Heritage in Wales and Cornwall Submitted by Bethan Elinor Coupland, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History, December, 2012. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (Signature) ..................................................................................... 1 Abstract Scholarly work on the relationship between heritage and memory has largely neglected living memory (that is ‘everyday’ memories of lived experience). There is a common assumption that heritage fosters or maintains broader ‘collective’ memories (often referred to as social, public or cultural memories) in a linear sense, after living memory has lapsed. However, given the range of complex conceptualisations of ‘memory’ itself, there are inevitably multiple ways in which memory and heritage interact. This thesis argues that where heritage displays represent the recent past, the picture is more complex; that heritage narratives play a prominent role in the tussle between different layers of memory. Empirically, the research focuses on two prominent mining heritage sites; Big Pit coal mine in south Wales and Geevor tin mine in Cornwall. Industrial heritage sites are one of the few sorts of public historical representation where heritage narratives exist so closely alongside living memories of the social experiences they represent.

  • Government Intervention in the Welsh Economy: 1974 to 1997. by Leon

    Government Intervention in the Welsh Economy: 1974 to 1997. by Leon

    Government Intervention in the Welsh Economy: 1974 to 1997. By Leon Gooberman Submitted in accordance with the requirements for a PhD. Cardiff University i Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisors, Professor Scott Newton of the School of History, Archaeology and Religion, and Professor Derek Matthews of Cardiff Business School for their advice and support. Also, thanks are due to my interviewees, who generously gave of their time, knowledge and experience. Most importantly, thanks to Mari. This thesis would never have been completed without her constant support and encouragement. ii Summary This thesis provides a description and analysis of government intervention in the Welsh economy between 1974 and 1997. During this period, Wales underwent rapid and far-reaching economic upheaval on such a massive scale that few avoided its impact. The scale of these changes was dramatic, as was the intensity of attempts to deal with their consequences. Wales acted as a laboratory for the development of approaches to government intervention in the economy. This thesis defines government intervention in the Welsh economy, before identifying activity, expenditure and (where possible) outputs across categories including land reclamation, factory construction, attraction of foreign direct investment, urban renewal, business support and the provision of grants and subsidies. It also places such interventions in their political and economic contexts, highlighting the dynamics that evolved between policies developed in Cardiff and London. By doing this, it asks and answers three questions relating to the changing dynamics of government intervention; namely, what was done, why was it done and was it effective? The thesis draws on primary sources including interviews with politicians and those formerly holding senior positions within governmental organisations, records held by the National Archives, personal and organisational archives held by the National Library of Wales, records held by other archives, newspapers and government publications.

  • A Critical Discourse Analysis of Developing the Curriculum Cymreig: the Language of Learning Welshness

    A Critical Discourse Analysis of Developing the Curriculum Cymreig: the Language of Learning Welshness

    MIAMI UNIVERSITY The Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation We hereby approve the Dissertation of Kevin J Smith Candidate for the Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Dr. Denise Taliaferro­Baszile, Director Dr. Richard Quantz, Reader Dr. Kathleen Knight­Abowitz, Reader Dr. Sherrill Sellers, Graduate School Representative ABSTRACT A CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS OF DEVELOPING THE CURRICULUM CYMREIG: THE LANGUAGE OF LEARNING WELSHNESS By Kevin J Smith In this study, I conduct a critical discourse analysis of Developing the Curriculum Cymreig, a document published by the Welsh Assembly Government in 2003 that provides guidance to schools for the implementation of a distinctively Welsh curriculum. In this study, I ask the following questions: In what ways does the text establish its authority position in regard to its representations of Welshness? and In what ways does the text represent Welshness? The purpose of this analysis is to investigate how ideology is used in manufacturing consent regarding the representation of Welshness, and to “denaturalize” commonsensical assumptions embedded within these representations.
