Identifying understudied correlations between autism & phenotypic attributes in a large family dataset
A more expansive conceptualization of the autism phenotype is likely to be useful to both researchers and families for identifying a more targeted approach to intervention
British foreign policy and military strategy
The post-war contradiction between British foreign policy aiming to become a third world power through Europe and the ‘middle of the planet’, and military strategy focused exclusively on an imperial Middle East presence, began to change in 1949. With reduced military resources only the power of prestige (what the rest of the world thinks of Britain) remained. However, by now exacerbating the contradiction between different Middle Eastern foreign …

International Relations Since 1945
International Relations Since 1945 provides a comprehensive introduction to global political history since World War II. The text has been comprehensively updated to cover the period between 2001 and 2012. Discussing the World Trade Center bombing and concluding with the run-up to the 2012 US presidential elections, a new final section outlines broad developments including the changing world order and the global financial crisis. Three new chapte…
The Neo-colonialism of Decolonisation
The link between the Cold War and decolonisation is tackled by using the uniqueness of the complex Congo crisis and its neo-colonial elements, with a focus on agents and specific policies rather than theories and general themes. The ‘real’ Cold War is essentially defined as that followed by Kennedy, with its priority in the early 1960s, among the Cold War’s many different constituent elements, taken to be the winning of newly independent African …

The US and Decolonization in Central Africa, 1957â 64
The US and Decolonization in Central Africa, 1957–64
The interest of the United States in Central Africa in 1945 was minimal or non-existent, but by the time John F. Kennedy entered the White House in 1961 Central Africa, for a brief period, was arguably the most important region for US global Cold War strategy. For the Kennedy administration the African winds of change were not only approaching gale force (albeit temporarily), but were part of the tropical Cold War storms produced by Africa’s sign…
United States reactions to empire, colonialism, and cold war in Black Africa, 1949–57
United States interest in and involvement with Black Africa under colonial rule began in the immediate years following the Second World War when Africa was seen primarily as an adjunct to European recovery with economic requirements predominating. When the continent assumed political importance for American Cold War policy, Washington began to grapple with the dilemma of winning African support and preserving the alliance with European colonial p…
Nato, Cold War and the End of Empire
Some time ago one of the most important historical questions concerning the post-1945 world was raised out of the blue at a small seminar at the Institute of Commonwealth Studies in London. Was decolonization simply a footnote to the Cold War?1 The significance of that question has become clearer in the light of the continuing attempts to refine our understanding of Cold War and Empire. To what extent were the importance of NATO and the changes i…
The United States and the Decolonization of Black Africa, 1945–63
The Second World War produced an upsurge of anti-colonialism on a global scale. In the US, imperial trading blocs were seen as causes of conflict and war, while colonialism, with its denial of self-determination, was at odds with American values and the struggle for freedom in the face of Fascist tyranny. Sumner Welles, Secretary of State Cordell Hull’s rival and deputy, was particularly keen to end colonialism when in charge of postwar planning …

On the night of November 7–8, 1942, an Anglo-American force of 110,000 troops landed at various points along the coastline of North Africa. The operation encountered several difficulties, but its success was assured when the Commander-in-Chief of the French armed forces, Admiral Jean-Francois Darlan, ordered a ceasefire that was fully implemented by November 12. Amidst much controversy, a formal agreement was concluded by Darlan and General Dwigh…

Problems of a Protestant Spirituality
“Spiritual discipline degenerates into little more than ethics, which may mean private good behavior, such as not stealing, not lying overmuch, and so on. Or it may mean support for more communal, if rather more vaguely defined, good works, such as Christian stewardship—of which one might hazard the guess that Luther might have called it the Indulgence system of our century. In any event, the links between this activism and spiritual discipline a…

The Role of Religion in the Cultural Structure of the Later Victorian City
One obviously cannot make generalizations covering all the towns and cities of late nineteenth-century England. London was a case by itself; Liverpool a very different port from Bristol; an industrial town like Rochdale seems very remote from Dorchester. Nor is it possible to give a single brief definition of a city, though many have tried. ‘Just as there is no single form of the pre-industrial city,’ wrote R. E. Pahl, ‘urbanization as concentrat…

A late nineteenth century nonconformist renaissance
Let us start from the propositions that we need a new model of late nineteenth-century English nonconformist history, and that one might be found by making some use of the idea of ‘renaissance’, especially if one uses ‘renaissance’ to point to the emergence at a particular time of humanist attitudes. This new model needs to be both less anglican and less nonconformist than its predecessors. The anglican model of nineteenth-century nonconformity i…

Religion and Science
Introduction The relationship between religious thought and science changed steadily in the second half of the nineteenth century. By about i860 the accumulation of fresh information in such fields as archaeology, geology and biology was breaking down the widespread earlier nineteenth-century assumption that science and Christian orthodoxy confirmed one another on such matters as the age of the earth, the fixity of species and the special creatio…
