After World War 1, the British government sought to improve public health and social welfare. A Ministry of Health was established in 1919 to better coordinate these efforts across departments. New laws like the 1919 Housing and Town Planning Act and 1920 Unemployment Insurance Act aimed to provide housing and insurance for workers. However, problems emerged from having both public and private organizations involved without coordination, leading to uneven treatment of the poor and rich across Britain.

Britain 1918-51 Essay Plans
Essay plans mainly using a book by Derrick Murphy called Exam Notes: 19th/20th Century British History
Britain between the wars
Politics in Britain between the wars saw a succession of Conservative and Labour governments, as well as the formation of a National Government in 1931 led by MacDonald in response to the Great Depression. The economy experienced a post-war boom followed by recession in the early 1920s, and a slow recovery in the later 1920s, before being severely impacted by the Great Depression with high unemployment. There was also a major General Strike in 1926 called by the TUC in support of coal miners, but it was called off after 8 days. Housing and education reforms were introduced but many were scaled back due to budget cuts.
Making of Modern Britain 1880-1951 - labour reforms (background)
The Labour Party unexpectedly won the 1945 UK general election led by Clement Attlee, taking control of the government from Winston Churchill. Labour introduced major social reforms between 1945-1951 aimed at reducing poverty and hardship, including establishing the National Health Service and creating new towns. This established the "welfare state" where the government took an active role in supporting citizens through services and money. However, Labour's reforms faced some opposition and economic challenges due to the costs as Britain recovered from World War 2.

Labour Reforms - Employment
The document discusses Labour reforms in Britain after World War 2 to tackle unemployment. Key reforms included nationalizing key industries like electricity, coal, railways to use tax money to keep unprofitable businesses open and reduce unemployment. However, nationalization was very expensive and did not necessarily create new jobs. Labour also created jobs through school, hospital and housing construction projects and the Dock Labour Scheme. While unemployment stayed low under Labour at 3%, some argue private companies created more jobs than Labour reforms.
Making of Modern Britain 1880-1951 - labour reforms (housing)
The Labour government took several steps after World War 2 to address poor housing conditions in Britain and reform housing, which was identified as one of the country's major issues. The New Towns Act of 1946 aimed to build new towns with homes and amenities to move people out of overcrowded cities and into better quality housing. While new towns provided improved living conditions, some criticized the lack of local jobs. The government also announced plans to build 200,000 new houses annually with modern facilities, though they fell short of this target, and prefabricated houses were used longer than intended. Overall, the reforms helped but did not fully solve overcrowding issues.
Ireland and Society, Lecture One: Religion
The document discusses the history and emergence of unionism in Ireland. It began as a reaction to Irish nationalism during the home rule crisis of 1885-1886. Formal Irish unionist organizations emerged at this time representing Protestant and conservative interests. The 1920 Government of Ireland Act created separate parliaments for Northern Ireland and the rest of Ireland but ultimate power remained in London. Several acts were later passed in Northern Ireland in the 1920s that consolidated unionist control over local councils and granted special emergency powers to authorities.
Introduction to Irish Politics: Lecture Two - The Constitution of Ireland
This document discusses the history and development of unionism in Ireland. It begins by defining unionism as a belief in the constitutional connection between Britain and Ireland. It then outlines the origins of organized unionism in Ireland in 1885-1886 in response to home rule proposals and the land war. The document goes on to discuss key events that mobilized unionists against home rule, including the third home rule bill and the Ulster covenant of 1912. It also summarizes key post-1920 legislation around local government and emergency powers that consolidated unionist control in Northern Ireland.

102120 sbc housing report
The US government currently spends over $50 billion per year through 160 housing programs administered by 20 agencies, resulting in duplication and overlap. This complex system evolved over 80+ years through changing goals and priorities. For example, HUD and USDA rental assistance and loan programs overlap in services provided. HUD's Public Housing, Housing Choice Vouchers, and Section 8 programs serve similar populations with similar eligibility rules. The HOME and Housing Trust Fund block grant programs are nearly identical in many ways and should be consolidated. The government also supports housing through billions in tax expenditures that overlap with other programs. This byzantine system fails to efficiently and effectively serve those in need, and Congress should undertake reforms to streamline and consolidate programs.
New dealorgsnew
The document provides information on several New Deal programs and agencies established during the Great Depression in the 1930s. It summarizes the goals and accomplishments of programs like the CCC, FERA, PWA, WPA, SEC, AAA, TVA, REA, FSA, and HOLC which aimed to provide relief, create jobs, and stimulate the economy through public works projects and reform of banking, agriculture, and other industries.
New Deal Legislation
The document summarizes several major pieces of New Deal legislation enacted by FDR during the 1930s to provide relief, reform, and recovery from the Great Depression. It overviews farm bills to stabilize prices and support farmers, the Civilian Conservation Corps to employ young men on conservation projects, federal relief programs to aid the unemployed, banking reforms to stabilize the financial system, and acts to support labor rights, public works projects, rural electrification, social security, and housing. The New Deal represented an unprecedented expansion of the federal government's role in addressing the economic crisis.
The Foundation of the Welfare State
The document discusses the origins of the welfare state in Britain. In the early 20th century, there was no welfare state and the government did not provide social services or benefits. The Liberal government began introducing social reforms between 1905-1914 that laid the foundations of the welfare state by establishing programs for children, old age pensions, and national insurance for workers. However, these initial reforms did not go far enough and the means tests limited who could receive benefits. The economic crises between the wars exacerbated health problems but the governments responses to social issues were limited and uneven.
irish_economy_1922-39.ppt powerpoint irl
This document summarizes the economic and social policies of Ireland under the Cumann na nGaedheal and Fianna Fail governments from 1922-1939. Under Cumann na nGaedheal, they pursued free trade and cautious spending while focusing on agriculture. However, Ireland faced many challenges like loss of industry and large numbers of dependents due to emigration and unemployment. Fianna Fail pursued protectionism and national self-sufficiency. This led to an "economic war" with Britain but also the growth of new industries behind trade barriers. They also greatly expanded social welfare programs and public housing.
LP
The Labour reforms of 1945-1951 aimed to tackle the "five giants" of want, disease, ignorance, squalor and idleness as outlined in the Beveridge Report. The summary introduces key reforms such as the National Health Service, national insurance, public housing construction and keeping unemployment low.

3) The 1921 Wheatley Act aimed to build homes with modern amenities like indoor plumbing and electricity, showing the continuation of government efforts to improve housing after the war.
Nicva economic levers presentation september 2011
This document summarizes a presentation on changes and continuities in economic levers in Northern Ireland. It discusses how Northern Ireland has historically been the poorest UK region and relied heavily on the public sector. While more fiscal levers were introduced after 1945, their results were mixed in promoting economic progress. The 1920 Government of Ireland Act created powers for Northern Ireland's government, but in practice revenues often fell short of expenditures, limiting what could be done to stimulate the economy. Politics often took priority over efficiency concerns in areas like public spending. Continuing issues around low policy capacity and a reliance on public sector spending are also noted.

The document outlines these periods and issues in Ireland to provide context for questions about the successes and failures of the different governments and policies.

The welfare state
The document discusses how William Beveridge identified five "giants" - poverty, disease, ignorance, squalor, and idleness - that needed to be tackled to improve life in Britain after World War 2. He proposed establishing a welfare state to provide social security, healthcare, education, housing, and full employment. The Labour government attempted to address these issues through acts establishing national insurance, the NHS, expanding education, building council housing, and nationalizing industries. However, these reforms still faced limitations, as demand for services outstripped provision, and many social issues remained.

The People's Budget of 1909 proposed several new taxes on the wealthy to fund social welfare programs. This upset the Conservative peers in the House of Lords, who rejected the budget, causing a constitutional crisis. As a result, the Parliament Act of 1911 curtailed the powers of the Lords and allowed the budget to pass, weakening the power of hereditary peers in Britain's system of government going forward.

It established numerous programs and agencies to provide relief, reform the financial system, and stimulate economic recovery. Some of the major programs included the FDIC to protect bank deposits, the SEC to regulate Wall Street, and the WPA and CCC to provide jobs for unemployed Americans through public works projects and conservation efforts. While not all of its policies ended the Depression, the New Deal restored hope by taking bold action and establishing the foundation of the modern American welfare state.

This document provides an overview of England before 1066 for a history class. It discusses how England was descended from Anglo-Saxons, Vikings, and Danes after the Romans left. Life was difficult, as many could not read/write, people followed religion strongly, and diseases were common. The country was divided into earldoms ruled by powerful earls, and the population was around 1.5 million, mostly living rurally. England was a Christian country within the Roman Catholic Church.
King John Weakest Link
1. The document discusses King John of England who ruled from 1199-1216 and debates whether he was a good, bad, or unlucky king. It presents a role-playing activity where students make decisions as King John and evaluate the consequences.
2. Students are asked to consider evidence that shows whether King John was good, bad, and/or unlucky based on his decisions as king. They then have to place him on the "Wheel of Fortune" and assess if he was the "weakest link".
3. King John faced many problems with rebellious barons and losing land in France. His decisions were often foolish and made his problems and unpopularity worse.
How Did William Control England
William faced several challenges in controlling England after the Battle of Hastings. He dealt with rebellions in different parts of the country and established castles like motte and bailey fortresses for defense. He also implemented the feudal system where the king was at the top and granted land to barons and knights who then provided military service. William further solidified his control through the Domesday Book, a record of land ownership across England.
1066 3 Men
The document discusses the succession crisis in England following the death of King Edward the Confessor in 1066, when there was no clear heir to the throne. There were three main contenders: Harold Godwinson, Earl of Wessex; William, Duke of Normandy; and Harald Hardraada, King of Norway. It provides arguments from each of the three men about why they should be king, including family ties, promises made, and military strength. Students are tasked with analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of each contender's claim, and deciding which one they think had the best claim to the English throne.
Feudalsystem]
The document discusses the Feudal System in medieval England and the Battle of Hastings in 1066.

Battlehastings[1]
The document summarizes the key events of the Battle of Hastings in 1066, where William the Conqueror defeated King Harold II of England. It describes the armies of William and Harold and the early stages of battle, including Harold's formation of a Saxon shield wall. It then explains William's cunning plan to feign retreat and surround Harold's men. After weakening the shield wall with archers, William launched another charge and Harold's brothers were killed. Harold was then fatally wounded by an arrow, and with his death the remaining Saxons fled, leading to William's victory.
Medieval Village
The document discusses an archaeological site at Wharram Percy in Yorkshire, England that provided insights into medieval English villages. In the 1940s, an aircraft taking aerial photographs of the area spotted outlines of the long-lost village of Wharram Percy that were invisible from the ground. Archaeological excavations since then have uncovered the remains of the manor house, streets, houses, church, mill and mill pond through identifying building foundations and other structural remnants visible below the ground. The discovery demonstrated how aerial photography could reveal historical features obscured by vegetation and time.

After winning the Battle of Hastings, William still faced problems securing control over England. He faced rebellions in several northern areas that supported Harold. He established a system of castles and used feudalism to run the country. William conducted the Domesday Book to tax the land and assert his control. Overall, William's most effective tactic was establishing a network of castles across England to assert military dominance over the territory.

Becketbookletcover
Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury, was murdered in Canterbury Cathedral on December 29, 1170. Four knights loyal to King Henry II entered the cathedral and killed Becket with swords after hearing the King say that he wanted rid of his troublesome Archbishop. The murder shocked Europe and led to Becket's canonization as a saint in 1173, making Canterbury Cathedral an important site of pilgrimage in the late medieval period.
Peasants Revolt Causes & Events
The document discusses reasons for the Peasants' Revolt in 1381 in England. Long-term causes included peasants being bound as villeins and having to work for free on church land. Short-term triggers included the poll tax of 1381, which angered peasants as it taxed them the same as the rich. The final straw was tax collectors mistreating villagers who refused to pay. The document tasks the student with writing a report to King Richard II explaining why the peasants revolted, citing both long-term and short-term reasons in order of importance.
The Power Of The Christian Church
The document discusses the power and importance of the Christian church during the Middle Ages. It aims to identify reasons for the church's importance, explain why the church played a major role in people's lives, and assess the significance of religion in medieval society. Students are tasked with mapping ways the church was powerful, selecting the top three reasons, and explaining their choices. They are prompted to consider how powerful the church was and the extent of its influence, and to analyze a doom painting depicting the afterlife.
Becket
Thomas Becket, who was once friends with King Henry II, became Archbishop of Canterbury in 1161. Tensions grew between them as Becket took his religious duties seriously while Henry wanted to assert more control over the church. This culminated in Becket fleeing England after disagreeing with Henry's Constitutions of Clarendon. Though they reconciled briefly, Becket excommunicated bishops allied with Henry upon his return, angering the king. Four knights heard Henry say he wished to be "rid of this troublesome priest" and murdered Becket in Canterbury Cathedral on December 29, 1164. Historians have debated whether Becket or Henry was ultimately responsible.
Lesplanblackdeath
This lesson plan aims to teach students about the Black Death pandemic in medieval Europe through various interactive activities. Students will first contextualize peasants' lives in the summer of 1348 when the plague arrived in England. They will then watch a video on the Black Death and identify key facts. Working in pairs or groups, students will map the spread of the plague and label symptoms. They will create a play or newspaper reporting on medieval beliefs, cures, and the devastation of the Black Death. To conclude, students will peer assess each other's work and prioritize why the plague was so devastating through group discussion. The next lesson will cover the Peasants' Revolt.
Englandscotwalesire
English attempts to take over the British Isles met with mixed success between the 11th and 15th centuries. Key dates where England was either successful or unsuccessful in asserting control over Wales, Scotland, and Ireland included 1072, 1100, 1282, 1314, and 1500. Students are tasked with labeling a map to indicate areas of English success and lack of success during this period, creating newsflash summaries of important battles and their outcomes, and scoring England's success against each country out of 10 while justifying their ratings.
What Were The Middle Ages Like
The document provides guidance for students on analyzing primary and secondary sources to understand life in the Middle Ages. It introduces the concept of primary and secondary sources and examples of each.

Higher level evaluations require explaining viewpoints and supporting conclusions with evidence from the sources.
Does Haig Deserve The Title ‘Butcher Of
This document discusses whether Field Marshal Douglas Haig deserves the title "Butcher of the Somme" for his leadership during the Battle of the Somme in 1916. There are two interpretations presented - one that criticizes Haig for heavy British casualties during large-scale infantry attacks with little success, and an alternative view that Haig developed effective new battlefield tactics that reduced casualties over time. Students are tasked with reviewing sources about Haig's expectations and plans for the first day of the battle against what actually occurred, and coming to a conclusion about whether Haig deserves criticism for his generalship during the Somme offensive.
