	Bibliography International Review of Social History vol. 40 part 2 (1995) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		This study of labour politics in the Argentine industrial city of Córdoba between 1955 and 1976 analyzes the dominant role of the automobile industry in the local economy and the prominence of the automobile workers' unions in local labour movements.
		Professor Brennan aims to demonstrate that the pronounced militancy and political radicalism of the Cordoban working class may be attributed in part to the dynamic relationship between the factory and society during this period and to the specific shop floor conditions and workplace culture created by automotive production in a semi-industrialized country such as Argentina.
		In this polemic political analysis of the Labour Party's history and recent political course, the author denies that the presence or absence of traditional socialism underlies the present problems of Labour in Britain.

	The Politics of Trade: The Overseas Merchant in State and Society, 1660-1720
		The Politics of Trade: The Overseas Merchant in State and Society, 1660-1720, is a study of the lives, business, and politics of 850 overseas merchants operating from London between the Restoration and the end of the War of Spanish Succession.
		Aiming to close the gap between studies of the mercantile influence on politics, which look at specific traders and companies, and those that focus on how commercial exigencies affected political ideology, the author divides his work into two sections.
		Much of The Politics of Trade deals specifically with important issues for English historians of the period, such as the debate about whether the landed and the mercantile were socially and politically compatible in the seventeenth century -- Gauci finds that they were.

		And we should be inclined to dismiss them as curious eccentricities were it not for the amazing fact that those old preachers were not mere accidents or by-products, but the very heart and passion of the times.
		For the moment religion and statecraft were merged in the thought of Englishmen; and it was because the Puritan ministers were statesmen as well as theologians—the political quite as much as the religious leaders—that the difficult task of social guidance rested for those generations with the divines.
		How they conducted themselves in that serious business, what account they rendered of their stewardship, becomes therefore a question which the historian may not neglect.

	Liberty Fund, Inc. - Check-In
		What we observe is ‘politics by interest,’ whether in the form of explicitly discriminatory treatment (rewarding or punishing) of particular groupings of citizens or of some elitist-dirigiste classification of citizens into the deserving or non-deserving on the basis of a presumed superior wisdom about what is really ‘good’ for us all.
		As James Buchanan notes in introducing his co-author Roger Congleton, Politics by Principle, Not Interest “embodies the working out and presentation of a single ideathe extension and application of the generality principle to majoritarian politics.” After laying out the theory, Buchanan and Congleton attempt to work it out in practical political reality.
		They are interested not in laying down precise do’s and don’ts for politics, but in pointing out the ideal of nondiscriminatory governance and calling for constitutional constraints on political action so it conforms more closely to the generality norm.

	1720-29 Swift's Motives (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		It describes how Swift participated in the politics of the time by reacting to events and conditions surrounding him, through the means of words written, which he often publicized in pamphlets.
		Moreover, Lock's Swift's Tory Politics also discusses the elemental role that Swift's writing played in forcing the English government to withdraw the patent it had given William Wood in 1722 for coining copper farthings and halfpence, which were intended for use in Ireland.
		A reader who is not aware of this might be confused why it is that he attacks the very country he seems to be devoted to defending.

		For instance, Ruth Bloch has provided evidence for this change in her essay on the privatization and feminization of ideas about virtue, which documents how these notions shifted from an emphasis on military courage and civic glory to a meaning that located virtue in churches, schools, and families[2].
		The view that women as wives and mothers were to be guardians of this virtue in the new republican state has been discussed by a number of scholars[3].
		It is my contention, however, that at the same time that political theorists were locating community in the home, masters and mistresses were denying their servants and non-nuclear kin membership in their families.

		That is evident by the muli-millions that are spent on the Presidential and most other political campaigns.

		Increasingly, urban political historians not only reject the "machine" paradigm for its biographical, episodic, and manichean treatments of urban politics, but remain critical of reducing politics to issues of symbolism and culture.
		Such examinations of urban political institutions conclude that the "local state" was relatively autonomous from social and cultural patterns.
		Only later did that public degenerate into a "politics of needs, interest groups, and government by administration." One is left wondering when the "decline" of public life began.

		We often think that the term “politics” refers mostly to the processes by which collective decisions are made – in particular, by governments.
		On the other hand this word (politics) can be used more generally to refer to the processes by which we all try to influence each other’s behavior in the normal course of everyday life.
		Some of the materials are analytic – that is, they provide “tools” by which one can address a wide range of specific instances.

		An innovative funding option in SB 861 saves general fund dollars while providng adequate support for the GSPC.Political jurisdictions would pay a small annual fee based on the number of employees and public officials about whom ethics concerns are directed to the GSPC.
		Spreading the support across a large number of political entities served by the GSPC ensures independence because no one jurisdiction controls the Commission's "purse strings."
		An open and democratic Oregon needs a Government Standards and Practices Commission, and the funding mechanism in SB 861 must move forward to protect that.

		Single honours History Students can move to joint honours, can take up to two modules outside the discipline of History, and can tailor their modules to their own requirements: thus, if a student wants to specialise in early modern History, for example, or modern political or social History, it is quite possible to do so.
		The Century of the Superpowers: the USA, Russia and Europe, 1860-1990; Britain and the World in the Twentieth Century; Britain in the Long Eighteenth Century, 1688-1832; Themes in early Modern History: From the Renaissance to the Enlightenment, 1480-1780; Politics beyond the Nation State.
		There are three compulsory modules: Theory and Practice of History which is taken in year two by all History students, a special subject selected from a range of modules in International History (see below) and the dissertation both taken in your third year.
