Download or read book Imperial Britain written by Andrew S. Thompson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-30 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new study considers the impact of the empire upon modern British political culture. The economic and cultural legacy of empire have received a great deal of attention, but historians have neglected the effects of empire upon the domestic British political scene. Dr Thompson explores economic, demographic, intellectual and military influences and he shows how parliamentary and party opinion interacted with imperial ideas and interests in the country at large. This is a major new book which explores the ideology of key imperial campaigns, and their popular support. It makes a critical contribution to recent debates -- about the importance of empire to the nature and development of British national identities before and after the First World War.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Papers and Addresses: Imperial Federation and Colonisation, From 1880 to 1894 The present volume contains a selection of Lord Brassey's Speeches, Lectures, and Articles on Imperial Federation and Colonisation between the years 1880 and 1894. Of Lord Brassey's intimate acquaintance with all that relates to the Colonial Empire of Great Britain, or of the authority of his utterances on the subjects here dealt with, there is no need to speak. But as this volume contains, besides the text of Lord Brassey's own productions, a considerable amount of matter written by the Editors, it is due to the reader to say that their qualification for the work they have undertaken rests upon knowledge of the subject matter gained during several years of official connection with the Imperial Federation League, as Secretary, and as Editor of the Journal, respectively.

Download or read book The Round Table Movement and the Fall of the Second British Empire 1909 1919 written by Andrea Bosco and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-01-06 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of the general phobia of federalism, there is a strong federalist trend within British political culture. In three very different historical contexts, federalism inspired the action of political movements such as the Imperial Federation League, the Round Table and the Federal Union. Indeed, it was regarded as the solution to problems arising from the first signs of the possible collapse of Great Britain and its Empire. The Round Table Movement played a particularly interesting role in this regard, attempting to reverse the rapid and inexorable decline of the British Empire. It was a political organisation with roots in all the major peripheries of the Empire and almost unlimited financial resources. This volume discusses the strategies and means employed by the group in order to maintain the British Empire’s global prominence. The book’s main argument is that we did not have a “British century” – the nineteenth – and an “American century” – the twentieth – but, rather, four centuries of Anglo–Saxon supremacy, which witnessed the affirmation of the national principle – expression of the Continental political tradition – and its overcoming through its opposite, the federal principle, the expression of the insular political tradition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenging orthodox assumptions concerning British federalism, The British Tradition of Federalism offers a unique revisionist critique of Britain's recent constitutional past. The central themes of Empire, Ireland and Europe provide the empirical focus of this volume. Together, they reveal a fundamental continuity of British federal ideas: a single intellectual tradition which spans the last century. By reinstating a neglected dimension of the larger British political tradition, Burgess shows how the continuing relevance of this federal tradition serves as both the source of and inspiration for a wide range of constitutional reform proposals in the 1990s.

Download or read book Some Phases of Preference in Imperial Policy written by E Morris Miller and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-25 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Phases of Preference in Imperial Policy: Imperial Federation League of Australia Frequently in discussions on imperial preference trade relations are separated from every other national con sideration, and disparagingly referred to as sordid bonds, and the beneficial effects of the interdependence of the multifarious services of the Empire are couse quently unheeded. The mundane affairs of commerce and industry, with the necessity of maintaining them in per feet security, are essential factors of our national exist ence and welfare, and are closely linked with the people's Spiritual interests. Our final record in history may 1n deed be the great ideals of nationhood we stood for, as expressed in our literature, art, and laws, but the strength to do these things, and the power to give them enduring worth, require a Spirit of expansiveness, and a breadth of imagination 35! Well as an ability for skilful manipulation of material resources, combined with a ready capacity to turn them to the utmost profitable ad vantage. These energies, deeply absorbed as they were in promoting the material well-being of the people, consti tute an important source for the maintenance of those higher duties which vitally affect their future standing and influence. Indifference to these physical necessities on the part of leaders must inevitably bring about na tional decay, whereas a lively concern in all that per tains to commercial activity and industrial advancement will tend to produce a strong sense of unity and conserve national self-dependence. The recognition of all inte rests, with a due regard to the mutual obligations in volv, ed is essential for the compact development of the Empire. These common purposes necessitate readiness to resist external pressure likely to militate against their successful fulfilment. We cannot set ourselves to realise a solid and enduring union exercising a preponderant influence in the world, without rousing the jealousy of others aiming at a similar position; and it is a matter of supreme moment to provide against the incidences of in ternational prejudices. Their strength and capacity mustbe under constant discussion, and unwearying vigilance must also be exercised to prevent any liability of inviting untimely attacks. Complete preparedness against all likeiy dangers, and unflinching resolution to maintain in dependence at all costs, and to secure the full and un impeded enjoyment of constitutional liberties and free dom, are the objectives of a healthy and buoyant nation alism. But these things must be paid for, and that, too, by the expenditure of nerve and sinew in unremitting devotion to the exacting duties of an imperial citizen ship. The appeal of public duties is inseparable from a people's mission, and without their whole-hearted re cognition of the work to be done, and the ends to be accomplished, it must prove unavailing. Concentration of effort upon Imperial purposes is the desideratum of the Empire's future progress, and all factors must be care fully weighed, lest by the undue emphasis of one parti cular need, we may lose corresponding advantages from other related sources. It is folly to allow ourselves to become clogged for the sake of preserving mere phrases and shibboleths. If we are utterly determined on the end we shall unreservedly own mistakes, consider facts afresh, and mould present instruments to accomplish the desired changes.

Download or read book The Marcus Garvey and Universal Negro Improvement Association Papers Vol I written by Robert A. Hill and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1983-11-04 with total page 718 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Africa for the Africans" was the name given in Africa to the extraordinary black social protest movement led by Jamaican Marcus Mosiah Garvey (1887-1940). Volumes I-VII of the Marcus Garvey and Universal Negro Improvement Association Papers chronicled the Garvey movement that flourished in the United States during the 1920s. Now, the long-awaited African volumes of this edition (Volumes VIII and IX and a forthcoming Volume X) demonstrate clearly the central role Africans played in the development of the Garvey phenomenon. The African volumes provide the first authoritative account of how Africans transformed Garveyism from an external stimulus into an African social movement. They also represent the most extensive collection of documents ever gathered on the early African nationalism of the inter-war period. Here is a detailed chronicle of the spread of Garvey's call for African redemption throughout Africa and the repressive colonial responses it engendered. Volume VIII begins in 1917 with the little-known story of the Pan-African commercial schemes that preceded Garveyism and charts the early African reactions to the UNIA. Volume IX continues the story, documenting the establishment of UNIA chapters throughout Africa and presenting new evidence linking Garveyism and nascent Namibian nationalism.

(6) Columns for Discount on Purchases and Discount on Notes on the same side of the Cash Book; (c) Columns for Discount on Sales and Cash Sales on the debit side of the Cash Book; (d) Departmental columns in the Sales Book and in the Purchase Book. Controlling Accounts.--The addition of special columns in books of original entry makes possible the keeping of Controlling Accounts. The most common examples of such accounts are Accounts Receivable account and Accounts Payable account. These summary accounts, respectively, displace individual customers' and creditors' accounts in the Ledger. The customers' accounts are then segregated in another book called the Sales Ledger or Customers' Ledger, while the creditors' accounts are kept in the Purchase or Creditors' Ledger. The original Ledger, now much reduced in size, is called the General Ledger. The Trial Balance now refers to the accounts in the General Ledger. It is evident that the task of taking a Trial Balance is greatly simplified because so many fewer accounts are involved. A Schedule of Accounts Receivable is then prepared, consisting of the balances found in the Sales Ledger, and its total must agree with the balance of the Accounts Receivable account shown in the Trial Balance. A similar Schedule of Accounts Payable, made up of all the balances in the Purchase Ledger, is prepared, and it must agree with the balance of the Accounts Payable account of the General Ledger." The Balance Sheet.--In the more elementary part of the text, the student learned how to prepare a Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the purpose of disclosing the net capital of an enterprise. In the present chapter he was shown how to prepare a similar statement, the Balance Sheet. For all practical...
