Jones, The Revival of Evangelicalism
Corruption, Empire and Colonialism in the Modern Era
The study of corruption in modern societies in European historiography has only recently managed to escape from the confines of national frameworks. This welcome new direction was led by a special edition of the Journal of Modern European History in 2013 which successfully identified that the central hypothesis under debate should be whether there was ‘a shift in debates on and perceptions of corruption ... somewhere during the “long nineteenth c…
Peterloo
The violent suppression of a mass public demonstration in Manchester on 16 August 1819, first satirised as ‘Peter-loo’ by the radical Manchester Observer, holds a very ambiguous place in the historiography of Britain in the early nineteenth century. Although it has remained a staple item in the teaching of modern British politics on A-level syllabuses and undergraduate history courses since the 1960s, largely owing to the influence of E.P. Thomps…
Corruption and the Public Service Ethos in Mid-Victorian Administration
While the problem of political corruption in mid-nineteenth century Britain has been much studied, the experience of corrupt behaviour in public bodies, both new and long established, is comparatively neglected. This article takes the example of one of the first inspectorates set up after the Great Reform Act, the Factory Office, to examine the extent of corrupt practices in the British civic state and the means whereby it was addressed. It exami…

Jim Hacker: Nobody in their right mind can want honours. They encourage sycophancy, snobbery, jealousy—and civil servants shouldn’t get them all! (J. Lynn and A. Jay, ‘Doing the Honours’, Yes Minister (first broadcast BBC2, 2 March 1981). The provision of state honours to members of the establishment has been a feature of public life since the seventeenth century in Western Europe, and a source of popular discontent since David Lloyd George’s mis…
Anti-Corruption in History
It is highly refreshing and indicative of the present robust intellectual health of political history that this collection largely avoids many of the habitual pitfalls of conference proceedings edited by multiple scholars. It is a cohesive and stimulating investigation of the shifting perceptions of corruption in moral, civic and political terms and the strategies and alternative modes of public behaviour that have been attempted to deal with thi…
The Impact of the 1918 Reform Act on the Politics of the West Midlands
Despite the impact of the Representation of the People Act of 1918 on the political culture of the west midland region in the interwar years, the elements of continuity in the politics of the region are striking. The Labour Party failed to dislodge the Unionists’ political control in the region (with the exception of the Black Country) for most of the 1920s and 1930s, notwithstanding the presence of a significant industrial working‐class populati…

I Hope I Don’t Intrude
The earliest and simplest legal definition of privacy came from the nineteenth-century American jurists Samuel Warren and Louis Brandeis, who stated in 1890 that it was ‘the right to be let alone’. The need for such legal protection was pressing in the increasingly densely populated urban spaces of Victorian Britain, as was demonstrated by the enormous success of the farce, Paul Pry, by the veteran comic playwright, John Poole, first staged in 18…

Don't let me go! Hold me down
Although Kate Bush's reputation as a significant musical pioneer has been accepted by most critics and academic commentators since her return to music in 2005, most readings of her work have been highly ahistoric. This paper explores how, with the release of her fifth album, Hounds of Love, in 1985, her popular appeal was widened into a genuine acceptance of her idiom by contemporary cultural commentators. In particular, the paper focuses on the …

Divine Providence”
As Erin O’Connor recently noted, “Asiatic cholera exposed the frailties of England’s urban industrial structure,” and it provided the most serious test of the old Poor Law system in Birmingham. This paper intends to explore the response of the medical, political, and religious authorities of Birmingham to the outbreak of cholera in 1832 as well as the popular reaction to this response. It also seeks to explain why, in Asa Briggs’ words, “Birmingh…
Gladstone
St Deniol’s Library—the unique residential study facility at Hawarden, established and maintained by the Gladstone Memorial Fund—is a vibrant academic hub. It is located as much on the intellectual border between academic and popular discussion of Gladstone and his legacy as it is on the geographical frontier between Flintshire and Cheshire. The library hosts an annual Gladstone conference, which is certainly the most hospitable in my academic ye…
The Liberal Unionist Party
The Liberal Unionist party was one of the shortest-lived political parties in British history. It was formed in 1886 by a faction of the Liberal party, led by Lord Hartington, which opposed Irish home rule. In 1895, it entered into a coalition government with the Conservative party and in 1912, now under the leadership of Joseph Chamberlain, it amalgamated with the Conservatives. Ian Cawood here uses previously unpublished archival material to pr…
Liberalism and the ‘New’ Politics
The 1892 General Election and the Eclipse of the Liberal Unionists
This article seeks to establish that the 1892 general election marked a major change in the relative positions of the parties in the Unionist alliance. Not only did it reveal the limitations of the Liberal Unionist Party's strategy and appeal in an age of increasingly organised, mass politics, but it also acted as a brake on the ambitions of the new leader of the Liberal Unionists in the house of commons, Joseph Chamberlain. It argues that the Li…
