E-BooksThe British Conservative Party and One Nation Politics



The British Conservative Party and One Nation Politics
David Seawright, "The British Conservative Party and One Nation Politics"
English | 2011 | ISBN: 1441123695, 0826489745 | EPUB | pages: 208 | 2.9 mb
Normal false false false E.N.-U.S. X-None X-None MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 This book reveals the true nature of Conservative Party politics by examining the centrality of the myth of One Nation. The use of the term One Nation clearly matters for Conservative Party politicsGÇönot just in its 'ancestral' use emanating from Disraeli's 1840s novels and his late nineteenth century rhetoricGÇöbut also through Baldwin's speeches and to the failure of John Major to replicate such a serene and contented image of the Nation in the 1990s. But, as a concept for the Conservatives, it means so much more than mere imagery. It has been successfully utilized in their 'palaeontological' approach to their history in order to give the impression that only the Party puts 'Nation' before any sectional interest, that only the Conservative Party, as the national Party, has the ability to assuage and balance the plurality of competing interests on behalf of the Nation. It is because of this long and successful utilization of the term 'One Nation' that so many within the Party are so keen to lay claim to it.

E-BooksChoosing the Tory Leader Conservative Party Leadership Elections from Heath to Cameron



Choosing the Tory Leader Conservative Party Leadership Elections from Heath to Cameron
Timothy Heppell, "Choosing the Tory Leader: Conservative Party Leadership Elections from Heath to Cameron"
English | 2008 | ISBN: 1845114868 | PDF | pages: 269 | 2.3 mb
The means by which the Conservative Party have determined their party leadership have produced some of the most dramatic political theatre of the last four decades. We have seen the Conservative Party's increasing inability, especially in the post-Thatcher era, to agree on how to select a leader and, once selected, whether that person should remain as leader. Here Timothy Heppell observes how the dominance of ideology has been immensely disadvantageous to post-Thatcherite Conservatism. Rather than empowering incumbents to project their leadership credentials outwards to the electorate and against their Labour counterpart, successive Conservative party leaders have been increasingly forced to look inwards, devoting crucial time to the complexities of intra-party management and the threats against them from rivals from within the parliamentary party.

The Conservative Challenge to Globalization Anglo-American Perspectives
Ray Kiely, "The Conservative Challenge to Globalization: Anglo-American Perspectives"
English | ISBN: 1788210964 | 2020 | 224 pages | EPUB | 406 KB
Ray Kiely examines the conservative discourse of "winners" and "losers" of globalization that has emerged since the financial crisis and which has been used to reflect real and imagined threats to domestic economies and national identity. Both the election of Donald Trump and the UK's Brexit vote are potent examples of the success of this conservative (anti-)globalization rhetoric, which has informed popular mantras of deregulation and economic nationalism.

Hannah Arendt Radical Conservative
Irving Louis Horowitz, "Hannah Arendt: Radical Conservative"
English | ISBN: 1412846021 | 2012 | 112 pages | EPUB | 254 KB
Hannah Arendt: Radical Conservative paints a broad picture of the personal traits and professional achievements in the work of an extremely complex iconographic figure in twentieth-century intellectual life. Writing about Hannah Arendt is an exercise in the biographic intersecting with the academic. It is an effort to bring together contexts of work with contents of thought. This volume was written in response to continuing interest in her work and also to the bitter and sometimes emotional attacks of her toughest critics. Horowitz emphasizes her unique contributions to political philosophy.

This book interrogates Conservative government penal policy for adult and young adult offenders in England and Wales between 2015 and 2021. Government penal policy is shown to have been often ineffective and costly, and to have revived efforts to push the system towards a disastrous combination of austerity, outsourcing and punishment that has exacerbated the penal crisis.

E-BooksConservative Counterrevolution Challenging Liberalism in 1950s Milwaukee



Conservative Counterrevolution Challenging Liberalism in 1950s Milwaukee
Tula A Connell, "Conservative Counterrevolution: Challenging Liberalism in 1950s Milwaukee "
English | ISBN: 0252081420 | 2016 | 272 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
In the 1950s, Milwaukee's strong union movement and socialist mayor seemed to embody a dominant liberal consensus that sought to continue and expand the New Deal. Tula Connell explores how business interests and political conservatives arose to undo that consensus, and how the resulting clash both shaped a city and helped redefine postwar American politics. Connell focuses on Frank Zeidler, the city's socialist mayor. Zeidler's broad concept of the public interest at times defied even liberal expectations. At the same time, a resurgence of conservatism with roots presaging twentieth-century politics challenged his initiatives in public housing, integration, and other areas. As Connell shows, conservatives created an anti-progressive game plan that included a well-funded media and PR push; an anti-union assault essential to the larger project of delegitimizing any government action; opposition to civil rights; and support from a suburban silent majority. In the end, the campaign undermined notions of the common good essential to the New Deal order. It also sowed the seeds for grassroots conservatism's more extreme and far-reaching future success.

William J. Bennett, John T. E. Cribb / Narrated by John McLain
What is FLINT? It's what makes America strong. We live in a culture that often dismisses and ridicules conservative values. By the time liberal professors, the news media, and Hollywood get through with them, many young Americans are convinced "conservative" means extremist and intolerant. It's a distortion that endangers America's future.

America the Strong Conservative Ideas to Spark the Next Generation
William J. Bennett, John T. E. Cribb, "America the Strong: Conservative Ideas to Spark the Next Generation"
English | 2015 | ISBN: 1496405935 | EPUB | pages: 288 | 3.8 mb
We live in a culture that often dismisses and ridicules conservative values. By the time liberal professors, the news media, and Hollywood get through with them, many young Americans are convinced "conservative" means extremist and intolerant. It's a distortion that endangers America's future. Bill Bennett and coauthor John Cribb explain what conservatism really means, using five fundamental principles summarized by the word FLINT: Free enterprise, Limited government, Individual liberty, National defense, and Traditional values. America the Strong shows the next generation how these principles have made the United States a great nation and why they are worth preserving. It answers more than one hundred questions, from "Do conservatives hate the government?" to "What's wrong with having an open border?" to "Why can't rich people pay all the taxes?"
