What is London?

London functions as a subject of study across a wide range of disciplines, including literature, history, urban studies, business, and the social sciences. Its long history as a global capital makes it a productive lens for examining how cities develop culturally, politically, and economically over time. Students in world studies courses are drawn to London because it sits at the intersection of so many academic conversations — empire, modernization, social inequality, artistic production, and governance — making it possible to approach the city from almost any analytical direction.

The papers gathered here reflect that diversity. Some take a literary approach, examining how writers such as Charles Dickens, John Milton, and Andrea Levy represent London and its society in their work, while others use the city as a backdrop for historical analysis, including the impact of World War One. Additional essays focus on business figures like David Ogilvy and architects like Robert Adam, treating London as a professional and creative environment. Still others engage policy and public health questions, analyzing issues such as flood defense planning and health care, which grounds the city in contemporary civic challenges.

A strong essay on London benefits from a clearly scoped thesis that commits to one dimension of the city — literary, historical, architectural, or policy-driven — rather than attempting a broad survey. Evidence drawn from primary sources, whether a novel, a historical event, or a case study of a company or institution, carries the most analytical weight. The most common pitfall is treating London as mere setting rather than as an active force that shapes the people, texts, and systems being examined.

On Liberty and the US Constitution

None of the issues being raised today by the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement are new, but rather they date back to the very beginning of the United States. At the time the Constitution was written in 1787, human rights and civil liberties were far more constrained than they are in the 21st Century. Only white men with property had voting rights for example, while most states still had slavery and women and children were still the property of fathers and husbands. Only very gradually was the Constitution amended to grant equal citizenship and voting rights to all, and even the original Bill of Rights was added only because the Antifederalists threatened to block ratification. In comparison, the libertarianism of John Stuart Mill in his famous book On Liberty was very radical indeed, even in 1859 much less 1789. He insisted that individuals should be left totally free to do as they pleased so long as they did no harm to others. To that extent, he would have supported the rights of OWS to protest and dissent, and been highly critical of how the authorities were suppressing the movement on the flimsiest of pretexts. As a supporter of free markets, he would also have opposed the trillions in dollars in bailout money that large banks and corporations have received from governments. On the other hand, he probably would have found the ideas of many OWS supporters too radical or socialistic, but at the same time have defended their right to assemble and demonstrate
