Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2014The politics of constitutional nationalism in Northern Ireland, 1932–70
Between grievance and reconciliation
by Christopher Norton
In the changed political landscape of Northern Ireland, where all major political parties with a nationalist agenda are now reconciled to the use of peaceful and constitutional means to achieve their objectives, this book presents a timely analysis of the constitutional nationalist tradition in Northern Ireland in the period leading up to the outbreak of the Troubles. The first book on constitutional nationalism to appear in over a decade, this new and incisive work based on extensive primary sources and existing secondary literature, maps the history of the campaigns of nationalist parties and organisations to redress the grievances of Northern Ireland's Catholics and bring partition to an end. It offers a critical reappraisal of these campaigns and it assesses the outcomes and consequences of the political strategies pursued by an array of nationalist parties and groups. ;

Humanities & Social SciencesJune 2020Reform of the House of Lords
by Philip Norton
This book is the only one of its kind, providing a clear and exhaustive analysis of the different approaches to the future of Britain's second chamber. The House of Lords has long been the subject of proposals for reform - some successful, others not - and calls for the existing membership to be replaced by elected members have been a staple of political debate. The debate has been characterised by heat rather than light, proponents and opponents of change often talking past one another. This work gives shape to the debate, drawing out the role of the House of Lords, previous attempts at reform, and the different approaches to the future of the House. It develops the argument for each and analyses the current state of the debate about the future of the upper house in Britain's political system.

by Nadine Mannchen
JEDER TRAUM HAT EIN ENDE Effy hat es geschafft: Endlich darf sie als erste Frau in Llyr Literatur studieren! Doch die Ereignisse der letzten Zeit lasten schwer auf ihr. Zumal ihre männlichen Kommilitonen sie alles andere als herzlich willkommen heißen. Einzig Preston gibt ihr Halt – der jedoch selbst zu kämpfen hat. Vor allem, als seine Träume ihn plötzlich in eine versunkene Stadt entführen. Was hat das zu bedeuten? Und wieso verfolgen ihn die Visionen sogar in der Realität? In der Fortsetzung des SPIEGEL-Bestsellers A Study in Drowning zeigt Ava Reid, welche Macht Mythen, Träume und Literatur besitzen. Dabei behandelt sie wichtige Themen wie Mental Health, Feminismus, Nationalismus und Propaganda und verwebt sie gekonnt mit einer berührenden Romantasygeschichte.
