This volume contains contributions on every aspect of Chamberlain‘s career, including international and cultural perspectives hitherto ignored by his many biographers. It breaks his career into three aspects: his career as an international statesman, defender of British interests and champion of imperial federation; his role as a national leader, opposing Gladstone‘s crusade for Irish home rule by forming an alliance with the Conservatives, campaigning for social reform and finally advocating a protectionist economic policy to promote British business; and the aspect for which he is still celebrated in his adopted city, as the provider of sanitation, gas lighting, clean water and cultural achievement for Birmingham – a model of civic regeneration that still inspires modern politicians such as Michael Heseltine, Tristram Hunt and DavidWilletts.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | | 关键词 | Joseph Chamberlain; Imperialism; Nineteenth-Century history; Liberalism; Unionism; foreign policy; Policy; | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/9781137528858 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-52885-8 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
