ARTICLES RELATED TO Neville Chamberlain - European policy | | | |  Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - European policyNeville Chamberlain, as with many in Europe who had witnessed the horrors of the First World War and its aftermath, was committed to peace at almost any price. Across the political spectrum in the major Western Democracies, there was a sense that war could, and should, be avoided by concession, negotiation and compromise. The theory was that dictatorships arose where peoples had grievances, and that by removing the source of these grievances, the dictatorship would become less aggressive. Chamberlain, as even his political detractors admitte ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Overview Chamberlain is perhaps the most ill-regarded British Prime Minister of the 20th century, largely because of his policy of appeasement towards Nazi Germany regarding the abandonment of Czechoslovakia to Hitler at Munich in 1938.
After working in business and local government, and a short spell as Director of National Service in 1916 and 1917, Chamberlain followed his father, Joseph Chamberlain, and older half-brother, Austen Chamberlain, becoming a Member of Parliament in the 1918 general election aged 49. He declined a junior minister ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Outbreak of war On September 1, 1939, the armies of Germany invaded Poland. Many in the United Kingdom expected war, but the government did not wish to make a formal declaration unless it had the support of France. France's intentions were unclear at that point, and the government could only give Germany an ultimatum: if Hitler withdrew his troops within two days, Britain would help to open talks between Germany and Poland. When Chamberlain announced this in the House on September 2, there was a massive outcry. The prominent Conservative former minister Leo ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Palestine White Paper One of the greatest controversies of Chamberlain's premiership concerned the government's policy on the future of the British Mandate of Palestine. After successive commissions and talks had failed to achieve a consensus, the government argued that the statements in the Balfour Declaration (1917) (that it "view[ed] with favour" a "national home" for Jews in Palestine) now had been achieved since over 450,000 Jews had settled there. A new MacDonald White Paper of 1939, so named after the Secretary of State for the Colonies, Malcolm MacDonald, was then introduced. It proposed a quota of 75,000 further immigrants for the ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - War premiership The first eight months of the war are often described as the "Phoney War", for the relative lack of action. Throughout this period, the main conflict took place at sea, raising Churchill's stature; however, many conflicts arose behind the scenes.
The Soviet invasion of Poland and the subsequent Russo-Finnish War led a call for military action against the Soviets, but Chamberlain believed that such action would only be possible if the war with Germany were concluded peacefully, a course of action he refused to countenance. Finland's de ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Legacy Neville Chamberlain remains one of the most controversial politicians in the history of Britain. His policy on Europe has dominated most writings to such an extent that many histories and biographies devote almost all coverage of his premiership to this single area of policy.
Written criticism of Chamberlain was given its first early boost in the 1940 instant polemic Guilty Men, which offered a deeply critical view of the politics of the 1930s, most notably the Munich Agreement and steps taken towards rearmament. Together with ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Lord President of the Council and death Despite his resignation as Prime Minister, Chamberlain remained leader of the Conservative Party and retained a great deal of support. Some, such as Rab Butler, would at times toast him as "the King over the water". Although Churchill was pressured by some of his own supporters and some Labour MPs to exclude Chamberlain from the government, he remembered the mistake that Lloyd George made in marginalising Asquith during the First World War and realised the importance of retaining the support of all parties in the Commons. Churchill had first ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Fall and resignation Following the debacle of the British expedition to Norway, Chamberlain found himself under siege in the House of Commons. During the Norway Debate of May 7, Leo Amery – who had been one of Chamberlain's personal friends – delivered a devastating indictment of Chamberlain's conduct of the war. In concluding his speech, he quoted the words of Oliver Cromwell to the Long Parliament:
You have sat too long here for any good you have been doing. Depart, I ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Relations with Ireland When Chamberlain became Prime Minister, relations between the United Kingdom and the Irish Free State had been heavily strained for some years. The government of Eamon de Valera, seeking to transform the country into an independent republic, had proposed a new constitution, Bunreacht na hÉireann. The constitution was adopted at the end of 1937, turning the Free State into Éire, an internally republican state which only retained the monarchy as an organ for external relations. The British government accepted the changes, formally stating that it did not regard them as fundamentally alt ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Domestic policy Chamberlain's domestic policy, which receives little attention from historians today, was considered highly significant and radical at the time. Achievements included the Factory Act 1937, which consolidated and tightened many existing measures and sought to improve working conditions by limiting the number of hours that minors and women could work and setting workplace regulation standards. The Housing Act 1938 provided subsidies that encouraged slum clearance and the relief of overcrowding, as well as maintaining rent controls for cheap ho ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Lord Mayor of Birmingham Although he would campaign for his father and brother during elections, Chamberlain first entered politics for himself in 1911 when he was elected as a councillor to Birmingham City Council and immediately became Chair of the Town Planning Committee. The same year he married Anne Vere. Under Chamberlain's direction, Birmingham soon adopted and brought into law one of the first town planning schemes in Britain. In 1913, Chamberlain took charge of a committee looking at housing conditions. The interim report of the committee could not be implemented immediately because of the war, but it did much to ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Early life Chamberlain was the eldest son of the second marriage of Joseph Chamberlain, Lord Mayor of Birmingham, and a half-brother to Austen, later Sir Austen Chamberlain. Joseph's first wife had died shortly after giving birth to Austen; Neville's mother also died in childbirth in 1875 when Neville was six years old. The Chamberlain children found their relations with their father strained, and Neville grew up developing strong bonds with those siblings who were closest to him in age, most notably his sisters Ida and Hilda, to who ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Early ministerial career In December 1916, Chamberlain was in London when he received a message asking him to meet the new Prime Minister, David Lloyd George. In a brief meeting, Lloyd George offered Chamberlain the new position of Director of National Service, with responsibility for co-ordinating conscription and ensuring that essential war industries were able to function with sufficient workforces. Chamberlain had been recommended for the position by, among others, his brother Austen, and he agreed to accept the post; despite several interviews, however, he was ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Becoming the heir apparent In the 1929 general election, Chamberlain changed his constituency from Ladywood to Edgbaston and held it easily, but the Conservative Party lost the election and entered a period of internal conflict. In 1930, Chamberlain became Chairman of the Conservative Party for a year and was widely seen as the next leader. However, Stanley Baldwin survived the conflict over his leadership and retained it for another seven years. During this period, Chamberlain became the founder and first head of the ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Return to the Exchequer After the 1931 general election, Chamberlain became Chancellor of the Exchequer a second time. As Chancellor, Chamberlain hoped to introduce protective tariffs, but the economic situation threatened government unity; at the general election, the parties supporting the government had agreed to ask for a "Doctor's mandate" to enact any legislation necessary to resolve the economic situation. Now the government, made up of Conservatives, Liberals, National Labour, and Liberal Nationals, faced a major crisis. The government agreed that no immedi ...

While the Conservative Party settled internal matters, the Labour Government faced a massive economic crisis as currencies collapsed and speculators turned towards the United Kingdom. Matters were not helped by the publication of the May Report, which revealed that the budget was unbalanced. The revelation triggered a crisis of confidence in the pound, and Labour ministers grappled with the proposed budget cuts. Given the possibility that the Government could fall, Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald met regularly with ...

| | | | Neville Chamberlain - European policy: Encyclopedia II - Neville Chamberlain - Appointment as Prime Minister Despite financial controversies, when Baldwin retired after the abdication of Edward VIII and the Coronation of George VI, it was Chamberlain who was invited to "kiss hands"1 and succeed him. He became Prime Minister of the United Kingdom on May 28, 1937, and leader of the Conservative Party a few days later.
Some historians have claimed that Chamberlain was not even a Conservative at all, arguing that his technocratic approach to government, commitment to social reform through state interventionism, and disdain for benign ...
