Hamilton, Catherine Jane [pseud. Retlaw Spring] (1841–1935), author and journalist
Get PDFHamilton, Catherine Jane [pseud. Retlaw Spring] (1841-1935), author and journalist, was born on 25 January 1841 at Kilmersdon, Somerset, where she was baptized on 12 April 1841, the younger of two daughters of Richard Hamilton (1805?-1859), vicar of Kilmersdon, and his wife Charlotte, née Cooper (1809-1882), the fifth daughter of William Cooper, of Queens County, Ireland. She was of Irish heritage on both sides. Her father belonged to a military family with roots in Strabane (county Tyrone) - his father, John Hamilton, and her father’s four older brothers were all officers in the Fifth Foot – and was a graduate of Trinity College Dublin. He had been a bright scholar with an aptitude for languages, and as a preacher was praised for his powerful sermons and his ability to bring the Bible to life for his parishioners
The reception of the economic policies of Sir Robert peel on Tyneside (north-east of England) c.1841-1845
Get PDFThe following thesis examines the reception of the economic policies of Sir Robert Peel in and around Tyneside between 1841 and 1846. The aim of the study is to assess local reaction in a major industrial area to the economic measures of a national government and to assess how this equates with received views and those of contemporary commentators. Selected aspects of the economy of the north-east are examined in order to establish the regional economic and political background to the study and the aims and methods of Peel's economic strategy are briefly outlined. The core of the thesis follows the reaction within the press on Tyneside to Peel's economic measures - the budgets of 1842 and 1845, the Bank Charter Act of 1844 and the repeal of the Corn Laws (1846). An attempt is also made to continue the study into 1847, a year when Peel's policies were again the subject of public debate during major financial crises and a general election. Supplementary sources – contemporary memoirs, the Times, the records of the meetings of various interest groups (coal, shipping, farmers and landowners), parliamentary and election statements – help to augment the public reaction as portrayed in the press. The basic conclusion reached is that press reaction on Tyneside was above all parochial for editors saw the measures in north-east terms and were less concerned about the national impact. This press reaction was also conditioned significantly by the political stance of the paper. North-eastern M.P's. reacted in a broadly similar fashion to the press representing the local concerns of their constituents although responding more to their political ties
Time-Varying Agglomeration Externalities in UK Counties between 1841 and 1971
Get PDFUsing dynamic panel data methods on UK counties (1841-1971), we investigate long-term employment dynamics in seven distinct local industries. We study how industries benefit from specialised environments (MAR), diverse local economies (Jacobs’) and large local markets (urbanization), and, in contrast to most other authors, test if the strength of MAR, Jacobs’ and urbanization externalities changes over time. We find declining MAR and rising Jacobs’ externalities since the mid-nineteenth century, questioning the adequacy of a static framework when studying agglomeration externalitiesagglomeration, dynamic externalities, Jacobs’ externalities, MAR externalities, urbanization externalities

Protección arancelaria, distorsiones de mercado y beneficios extraordinarios: la producción de harinas Castilla la Vieja, 1820-1841
Get PDFEditada en la Fundación Empresa PúblicaEl propósito de este trabajo es tratar de explicar el incretnento de la oferta castellana
de harinas entre 1820 y 1841 como resultado de los cambios en la política comercial.
Desde 1820, los gobiernos de Femando VII aprobaron nuevas tarifas protectoras
en la pretensión de excluir el consumo de harinas extranjeras en el mercado nacional y
cubano. Como consecuencia de la aplicación de estos derechos arancelarios, el número
de fábricas en activo en Castilla se vio incrementado. Hemos de distinguir dos tipos de
molinos establecidos en el Canal de Castilla y sus alrededores: los que pueden ser considerados
como fábricas en cuanto tal y aquellos cuyo trabajo era próximo al propio
del putting-out-system conocido para otras dedicaciones industriales. Ambos establecimientos
eran propiedad de un cártel formado por mayoristas de harinas santanderinos
que obtuvieron un considerabe volumen de beneficios gracias a su privilegiada posición
en el mercado.The aim of this work is to explain the increase of the Castillian supply of flour as a
result of the changes in the commercial policy between 1820-1841. Since 1820 the gouvemments
of Femando VII approved new protective tarifiis with the purpose of exduding
the consumption of foreing flour in the domestic and the Cuban markets. As a
consequence, the number of flour milling factories working in Castille grew up. We have to distinguish between two kinds of milis set up cióse dio the Canal de Castilla: those
with can be consdidered «factories» and those other whose work is near to the puttíngout-
systetn. Both plants were owned by a cartel formed by flour dealers from Santander
who obtained considerable profíts thanks to their privileged positíon in the marketPublicad
