It's Tory Principles that Win it: A Response to Ben Jackson (and Anthony Trollope)
Modeling the influence of snow cover on low Arctic net ecosystem exchange
The Arctic net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of CO2 between the land surface and the atmosphere is influenced by the timing of snow onset and melt. The objective of this study was to examine whether uncertainty in model estimates of NEE could be reduced by representing the influence of snow on NEE using remote sensing observations of snow cover area (SCA). Observations of NEE and time-lapse images of SCA were collected over four locations at a low Arc…
Nowhere to Run, Nowhere to Hide? The 2010 General Election and the Defence of First‐past‐the‐post
The 2010 general election threw traditional arguments about electoral reform into chaos: defenders of the status quo suddenly found themselves defending outcomes the existing system is supposed to prevent, while advocates of reform were obliged to praise outcomes arising from current arrangements. This article examines the strengths and weaknesses of first‐past‐the‐post in the light of the 2010 result and asserts that—contrary to many claims—FPTP…

The Worst of All Worlds? Electoral Reform and Britain's 2009 European Elections
At the 2009 European elections, Britain again elected its MEPs under the ‘closed list’ system of proportional representation (PR)—the third time it had done so since 1999. This article looks at claims that these elections vindicated PR by producing a ‘fairer’ relationship between the parties' share of votes and their share of seats, a truer reflection of diverse political allegiance in modern Britain, and (thanks to multi‐member constituencies) a…
It's Only Made Things Worse: A Critique of Electoral Reform in Britain
Since it came to power, New Labour has introduced a range of new electoral system into the British political system, implicitly accepting the argument that Britain's traditional electoral system ‐ first‐past‐the‐post (FPTP) ‐ has been a cause of voter disenchantment with Britain's representative democracy. In this article, it is asserted that Labour's reforms have merely compounded this problem, while demonstrating that all electoral systems have…
Developing incentive schemes for housing organisations: Considerations for effective solutions
The article discusses the key to ‘getting it right’ in incentive schemes. By noting key findings through case studies, it outlines the factors that contribute to a successful programme, and shows how these factors have an inevitable knock-on effect on other issues in many housing associations today
The Constitution: Into the Sidings
There continue to be fitful attempts by the government at further constitutional change, with mixed results. The Lord Chancellor set out the next steps in Labour’s reform programme, but failed to satisfy parliamentarians. Lords’ reform was postponed until after the next election, but the Law Lords will leave the Lords, if the Constitutional Reform Bill is enacted before the election. It provides for a new Supreme Court and modifies the office of …
The Extra‐Parliamentary Tory Party: McKenzie Revisited
This chapter almost coincides with the fiftieth anniversary of Robert McKenzie's British Political Parties , a study which contested that power in the Tory party was centralised in its Parliamentary leadership, with its constituency members having only a marginal influence. The chapter revisits McKenzie's analysis in the light of developments since 2001, particularly the victory of Iain Duncan Smith in that year's 'democratised' Conservative lead…

Seasonal snow extent and snow mass in South America using SSMI passive microwave data 1
Seasonal snow cover in primarily non‐mountainous areas of South America was examined in this study using passive microwave satellite data from the Special Sensor Microwave Imagers (SSM/I) on board Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) satellites. For the period 1992–1998, both snow‐cover extent and snow depth (snow mass) were investigated during the winter months (May‐August) in Argentina and Chile. Most of the seasonal snow in South Am…

Conservatism Under Hague: The Fatal Dilemma
Role Preferences of Faculty in Different Age Groups and Academic Disciplines
Faculty members in a state university were asked to rate the importance of three faculty roles: teaching, research, and contributing to the development of character in students. Faculty in all age groups and disciplines viewed the teaching role as most important. Younger faculty placed greater emphasis on research and less emphasis on character development than did older faculty members. The social scienle and natural science faculties viewed res…
