  • Baldwin and a United Nation

    Open AccessPaul Williamson, Philip WilliamsonARTICLERevue française de civilisation…2023

    Stanley Baldwin, the Conservative Party leader from 1923 to 1937, has been credited with the first use of the term “one nation” as a tenet of Conservative politics. But it is unlikely that he intended to invent a new phrase, and he was not a source for the modern conception of “One Nation Conservatism”. Nevertheless, during the severe difficulties of inter-war Britain and fears for the Conservative Party’s future, Baldwin did create a distinctive…

  • The Family Firm: Monarchy, Mass Media and the British Public, 1932–53, by Edward Owens

    Open AccessPaul Williamson, Philip WilliamsonARTICLEThe English Historical Review2021

    The continued popularity of the monarchy in twentieth-century Britain is commonly attributed to the character and prominence of its presentation in the mass media. Numerous studies have commented on aspects of the extensive and intensive coverage of royal events and the royal family by the popular and illustrated press, in newsreels and in documentary and feature films, and on radio and television. Edward Owens has now undertaken the first system…

    Philip A Williamson, Tom Rodger et al.BOOKChurch of England and British…2020

    Bringing together researchers in modern British religious, political, intellectual and social history, this volume considers the persistence of the Church's public significance, despite its falling membership. During the twentieth century, the relationship between the Church of England and the British state was transformed. The character and dynamics of the connections shifted as politics became more democratic and society more secular,as the rol…

  • The ‘Holy Days’ of Queen Elizabeth I

    Open AccessNatalie Mears, Paul Williamson et al.ARTICLEHistory2020Cited by: 3

    The annual celebrations of the accession day and birthday of Queen Elizabeth I are a familiar subject in studies of her reign, yet their beginnings, status and purpose have remained uncertain. By examining revisions of the calendar of the Church of England published in the Book of Common Prayer from early in the reign, this article establishes the dates of the first recognition of these public anniversaries. It questions the weight that has been …

  • Baldwin's Reputation: Politics and History, 1937–1967

    Open AccessPaul Williamson, Philip WilliamsonARTICLEThe Historical Journal2004Cited by: 3References: 2

    In one fundamental sense, a British post-war consensus certainly existed: repudiation and denigration of interwar governments and their leaders. Stanley Baldwin was the chief victim, as it became widely believed during the 1940s that he had ‘failed to rearm’ the nation in the 1930s. Examination of the history of Baldwin's reputation after his retirement – precisely why and how it collapsed – reveals a striking case of the contingent construction …

  • Safety First’: Baldwin, the Conservative Party, and the 1929 General Election

    Open AccessPaul Williamson, Philip WilliamsonARTICLEThe Historical Journal1982Cited by: 6References: 6

    The Conservative party's preparations for the 1929 general election have been harshly treated by historians. Because the election was lost, they have understandably concentrated on explaining the defeat and so looked for weaknesses in Conservative leadership, policies and organization. It is also understandable that in the light of subsequent economic analysis, the Conservative election platform of ‘Safety First’ has suffered badly from compariso…
