Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Rule I do not desire the complete separation of Ireland from England, but I do not fear it. The two countries have many interests in common, both public and private; and if they can arrange some terms of union which shall be acceptable to each, and shall give to each the inestimable advantage of Home Rule, it will be a happy consummation. But sooner than go on as we have been doing for the last hundred years, and especially for the last ten years, I should welcome complete separation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Price of Home Rule Mr. Asquith's declaration with regard to Home Rule, made on December loth, 1909, revived an issue which, so far as England is concerned, had lain almost dormant since 1893, although the question never slept in Ireland. The immediate effects of that declaration were two. One was to engage the Irish Roman Catholic vote in this island to the Liberal cause; the other, to rouse Ulster, which is Loyal Ireland, to a sense of her danger. As regards English people, the moral of the situation was, and is, the fact that the Prime Minister deliberately proposed to concede the demands of the Nationalist party in Ireland, in return for their help in abolishing the veto (as it is called) of the House of Lords.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland and the Home Rule Movement The great tendency which has been so marked a feature of Irish life in the course of the last decade to turn the attention of the people towards efforts at self improvement and the development of self-reliance without regard to English aid, English neglect, or English Opinion, excellent though it has been in every other respect, has had this one drawback - that there has grown up a generation of Englishmen, well intentioned towards our country, to whom the problems of Irish Government are an unknown quantity. The ignorance of Irish affairs in England is due partly to ourselves, but also to a natural heed lessness arising from distance and preoccupation with problems with which Englishmen are more intimately concerned.

Download or read book The Oxford History of the British Empire Volume V Historiography written by Robin Winks and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2001-07-26 with total page 756 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford History of the British Empire is a major new assessment of the Empire in the light of recent scholarship and the progressive opening of historical records. From the founding of colonies in North America and the West Indies in the seventeenth century to the reversion of Hong Kong to China at the end of the twentieth, British imperialism was a catalyst for far-reaching change. The Oxford History of the British Empire as a comprehensive study helps us to understand the end of Empire in relation to its beginning, the meaning of British imperialism for the ruled as well as for the rulers, and the significance of the British Empire as a theme in world history. This fifth and final volume shows how opinions have changed dramatically over the generations about the nature, role, and value of imperialism generally, and the British Empire more specifically. The distinguished team of contributors discuss the many and diverse elements which have influenced writings on the Empire: the pressure of current events, access to primary sources, the creation of relevant university chairs, the rise of nationalism in former colonies, decolonization, and the Cold War. They demonstrate how the study of empire has evolved from a narrow focus on constitutional issues to a wide-ranging enquiry about international relations, the uses of power, and impacts and counterimpacts between settler groups and native peoples. The result is a thought-provoking cultural and intellectual inquiry into how we understand the past, and whether this understanding might affect the way we behave in the future.

Download or read book Home Rule written by John Joseph Horgan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Rule: A Critical Consideration I AM indebted to the Editor of the leader for permis sion to republish in book form the following articles, which first appeared in his paper and were written at his request. They are an attempt to explain in a clear and businesslike way what Nationalist Ireland means by Home Rule. My object in writing them was two fold., First to awaken intelligent discussion in Ireland concerning the details of Home Rule, and secondly to place a clear statement of Ireland's demand before fair minded Englishmen. It was indeed 'to compass the second of these objects that this book has been pub lished. I have taken as the standard for discussion the Home Rule Bill of 1893, because I do not believe, that Irish public opinion will be satisfied with anything less, and because I hope that English statesmen will have the courage and foresight to give us something more. One specious argument is frequently used against a generous Home Rule Bill by politicians of the Devolu tion school. Stated shortly it amounts to this, that Home Rule should be granted by instalments because Ireland is not prepared for a measure of full self-govern ment. Nothing could be more absurd. The adminis tretiye government of every country is really carried on by the permanent officials. The representatives of the people who form the party government of the day simply direct and influence the permanent officials. Nowhere is this more apparent than in England, where the government of the day always acts on consultation.

Download or read book The Present Status of the Home Rule Question Classic Reprint written by William Thomas Laprade and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Present Status of the Home Rule Question But, after all, the most interesting question at present con cerning the Government of Ireland Bill is whether it has any chance of becoming a law in the near future. As regards this question, any prophecy at the present juncture would be rash. Nevertheless, there are some facts which can be stated with reasonable certainty and which are worthy of the attention of students of current politics. One of the most evident of these facts is that the majority of Englishmen no longer get excited about the question. True enough a certain class of Unionist leaders are using strong, not to say violent and dis courteous, language in the newspapers, on the platform, and even on the floor of the House of Commons. But as far as the results have been expressed in votes they cannot be said to tell very strongly against Home Rule. The administration has lost several seats at recent by-elections and has held others by decreased majorities, as the administration of the day usually does. But in none of these contests have the Unionists shown a disposition to feature Home Rule as an issue, except perhaps in Manchester. But since 1903 the voters of that city have developed the habit of returning Liberal members in general elections, when there is a possibility that the election Of a Union ist member might mean the success of the policy of protective tariffs, and Unionists in by - elections, when free trade is not in danger. Much water has passed under the bridges since 1886, even since 1893, and there is every indication that in the meantime the view that some measure of Home Rule is the only possible solution of the Irish question has gained ground in Great Britain until it now commands the approval of a majority of the voters. The most rabid Unionist leaders them selves complain of the apathy of their followers. An exami nation Of the arguments used by the leaders of the parties thatfore, say, and apparently believe, that the prime minister and his colleagues have sold themselves for place, and that they do not really believe in the measures they are supporting. It would be a mistake, however, to take this view too seriously. Even though we could believe the ministers, who are admitted by many Unionists to be a more able group of men than those who occupy the front Opposition bench, to be so entirely devoid of political scruples, it is impossible to conclude that all their eminent supporters out of office, publicists, journalists, and the like, are also of that character. We are obliged to believe, therefore, that the arguments used by the advocates of Home Rule represent the actual Opinions of a considerable number of English people.
