The authors examine the ways in which parliament accepted, invited, or modified channels of political pressure from those outside their ranks and outside the electoral process. As such, the essays consider a variety of interests, identities, or ideas whose pressure might be exerted upon legislators. In particular, these essays highlight the technologies of growth of private and public petitioning, the pressure to act on new national and international questions, and the ways in which parliamentarians themselves orchestrated pressure. The result is a range of insights into the collaborative porousness of political pressure on parliament, not simply as the force of 'pressure from without'" -- $c Details from publisher. 610 17 $a Gro©britannien $b Parliament $2 gnd 650 0 $a Pressure groups $z Great Britain $x History. 650 7 $a Politische DurchsetzungsfaÂhigkeit $2 gnd 650 7 $a Pressure groups. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01075954 651 7 $a Great Britain. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204623 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Huzzey, Richard, $e editor. 830 0 $a Parliamentary history. $p Texts & studies ; $v 13. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018013750.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A259A8B2462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
