Railway Companies and Resort Hotels between the Wars
This article examines the development of railway resort hotels during the years 1918-39, a difficult period for the railway and hotel industries.

It is suggested that, while the impact on receipts from railway traffic could be impo…
A Consumer Service in Interwar Britain: The Hotel Trade, 1924–1938
An examination of the fortunes of three hotel groups in the 1920s and 1930s suggests that the collapse of international demand and the growth of a middle-class motorized trade were the major influences on differential performance. While trading difficulties led to an effort to exit from unprofitable outlets or to rationalize supplies and services, opportunities for economy were restricted by customers' rising expectations of facilities and the ne…
Unemployed women in inter-war Britain: The case of the Lancashire weaving district 1

Exceptionally high levels among married women led to suggestions that many such applicants for benefit were manipulating unemployment insurance regulations. H…

Zwingle, quoted in Bertelsmann-Scott (2000:14), views globalisation as a reality, not a choice. Such a description of globalisation as an irreversible fact of life is an attempt to show that any critical analysis of this process should be made with a view that no state can escape the process of globalisation and its manifestations and equally so, no region can afford to be left behind
