Parnell & O'Shea & Irish Politics
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page research paper that discusses the decade-long affair between Charles Stewart Parnell and Kitty O'Shea, which brought about the demise of Parnell's political career. In 1890, Great Britain was rocked by a scandal of monumental proportions. Charles Stewart Parnell, a member of Parliament and volatile spokesman in favor of Irish Home Rule, was named as the cause of a divorce by a fellow MP, Captain William O'Shea. The proceedings brought to light the fact that Parnell has been carrying on an affair with Mrs. O'Shea for the last decade. The Victorian world was shocked. Parnell's career went into decline and Ireland lost the perspective for Home Rule that had recently seemed so close. However, examination of their affair and its political ramifications shows that the shocking quality of scandal was not due to what would be judged a immoral conduct today, but rather was a result of the Victorian attitudes towards divorce. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Partisan Relations in Congress
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages. The majorities in Congress are tenuous. Some political observers believe this environment of relative equality creates a unique opportunity for bipartisanship, while others feel that Congress remains gridlocked because of partisan fighting and incentives meant to posture rather than cooperate. An example of this is how the Democrats may not lose seats in non-presidential election years - the only times this did not happen in the 20th century were in 1934 and 1998 - yet they will gain enough seats in both houses in 2002 to be the majority party in Congress. This paper deals with the effects of partisan relations and politics in the 107th Congress. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
