Droughts and Agriculture in Lebanon
This volume examines the causes and consequences of drought on Lebanon’s agriculture. Lebanon is getting hotter and dryer. Projections show droughts will likely become more frequent and severe. Climate change, El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO), and the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) impact the occurrence of drought to varying degrees, with NAO being the biggest short-term driver and climate change being the biggest long-term driver. The drier…

Proportional Representation
There are two enduring characteristics of the British electoral system that are readily understood by the British electors. The first is the relationship between an individual Member of Parliament and his constituency. Everyone either knows or can find out easily who is his Member of Parliament and each Member of Parliament knows who are his constituents. The second is the fact that the person with the most votes in the election wins the seat. So…
Treaty of European Union
At Maastricht on 7 February 1992, the member states signed the Treaty of European Union. Europe had come a long way from the original Treaty of Rome, when the first six members began the whole process in the 1950s. Twelve states sat down at the table at Maastricht. Three new members joined shortly after. The Treaty of Rome set out mainly to create a common market. The Treaty of Maastricht set out a comprehensive plan for economic and monetary uni…
The Commons — Marginalised or Modernised?
Tony Blair’s Government has given the impression of being tired of the House of Commons. New Labour sees Parliament as a problem, not as part of the solution. They have gone out of their way to undermine the institution. They seek to avoid proper parliamentary debate, choosing other means to put across their messages and make announcements to the country. They are out to break many British traditions. These keywords were added by machine and not …
Can There Be a British Revolution?
The British people are not very keen on revolutions. Many agreed with Burke’s conservative criticisms of the French Revolution. Even those who flocked to buy Thomas Paine’s The Rights of Man, which was more sympathetic to the French cause, did not follow it up by seizing the Fleet prison or taking over the British government. It has made us as a people curiously unprepared for the European revolution now unfolding. Indeed it has made many relucta…
House of Lords Reform
’No bishop, No King’, thundered the defenders of the established order in the seventeenth-century constitutional struggle. Today some wonder if it’s now a case of ‘No peer, No Queen’. The peers of inheritance, the oldest powerful families of the land, are threatened with the loss of their parliamentary votes and rights. The Government is encouraging a feeling that the time has come for them to depart, to follow the path of their great homes and h…
The Monarchy
The monarch has embodied Britishness and our constitutional position for many centuries. The Queen is both above politics and central to the conduct of Parliament. A typically British compromise has been arrived at. When other states turned to revolution and to republics, the United Kingdom remained a monarchy. We caricatured, savaged and pilloried the monarch, took away some of the monarch’s wealth, limited the monarch’s powers but decided that …
British Business — Euro Champions or Global Players?
At the same time as Western European politicians and officials are pulling their countries ever closer together, creating a single government for the larger area, companies in Western Europe are caught up in the rapid progress of globalisation. Some argue that, because business is going to be conducted more and more by multinationals operating on a worldwide basis, there is a need for government at the European level. Such government, they argue,…
Conclusions
If you travel the 28 miles from Land’s End to the Isles of Scilly, you make a journey back in time to a world we are losing. The close, small island communities on each of the five inhabited islands of the group have many of the characteristics of communal life that English villages and small market towns enjoyed 30 or 40 years ago. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be u…
The Single Currency — Why Britain Must Stay Out
The European Union seriously thinks it can tame the global market by creating a single currency. It sees the important symbolism of having its ownnotes and coins with pictures of Europe on. It sees the economic power itwill bring over companies and national economies, once fixing the interest rates, currency rates and bank lending is in its own hands. It believes that then it can have a single voice on bodies like the old G7, the IMF and the Worl…
Devolution
It has always been Europe’s belief that it would be helpful if each member state had regional government along the lines of the German Lander . The absence of such regional government in Britain has been seen as a problem for the European Union. As part of the process of undermining the status and power of the nation state, the European Union has made a conscious effort to appeal over the heads of member states to the regions in each country. In …
The Federal Ideal — Experience from Abroad
The word ‘federal’ has caused many a problem in the British debate. To those wanting to keep an independent democracy in these islands it means the centralisation of power, followed by some devolution from the centre to the extent that the centre sees fit. It means the creation of a country called Europe. Enthusiasts for the idea say that the continental model is different, that the power remains in the individual states of the union and that we …

Reason, Ridicule and Religion
This study, with its examination of the lives and works of Isaac Newton, Robert Boyle, George Berkley, John Locke and other Enlightenment scholars, rejects the idea that the early modern period was marked by a triumph of reason or that it should be seen as a simple battle between science and religion. The more far-reaching debate is focused on one great theme: the questioning of God's place and significance in the cosmos - and the threats that th…
