  • 'Europe First' Strategy, 1940-1941
    Why ‘Europe First’? The Cultural, Economic and Ideological Underpinnings of America’s ‘Europe First’ Strategy, 1940-1941 “That those threats to the American way of life and to the interests of the United States in Europe, Latin America and the Far East – against which threats the huge new defence program of this country is directed – all stem, in the last analysis from the power of Nazi Germany.”1 “The Atlantic world, unless it destroys itself, will remain infinitely superior in vigor and inventive power to the too prolific and not too well-nourished Orientals.”2 “Since Germany is the predominant member of the Axis Powers, the Atlantic and European area is considered to be the decisive theatre. The principal United States Military effort will be exerted in that theatre.”3 Nearly seventy years have passed since the Roosevelt administration tacitly accepted the 'Europe First' policy as the controlling element of American grand strategy in the Second World War. Three generations of historians have traced the genesis and evolution of “the most important strategic concept of the war”.4 Most of the scholarship centres on how the official documents and reports shaped American strategic policy. We know that American war planning began before the US was actively engaged in battle and that the Navy had a prominent voice in matters of strategy. We know that President Franklin D. Roosevelt stayed aloof from the hypothetical discussions of his military 1 Resolution of the Miller Group at the Century Club in New York City on 11 July 1940.

  • Scms 2017 Conference Program
    SCMS 2017 CONFERENCE PROGRAM FAIRMONT CHICAGO MILLENNIUM PARK March 22–26, 2017 Letter from the President Dear Friends and Colleagues, On behalf of the Board of Directors, the Host and Program Committees, and the Home Office staff, let me welcome everyone to SCMS 2017 in Chicago! Because of its Midwestern location and huge hub airport, not to say its wealth of great restaurants, nightlife, museums, shopping, and architecture, Chicago is always an exciting setting for an SCMS conference. This year at the Fairmont Chicago hotel we are in the heart of the city, close to the Loop, the river, and the Magnificent Mile. You can see the nearby Millennium Park from our hotel and the Art Institute on Michigan Avenue is but a short walk away. Included with the inexpensive hotel rate, moreover, are several amenities that I hope you will enjoy. I know from previewing the program that, as always, it boasts an impressive display of the best, most stimulating work presently being done in our field, which is at once singular in its focus on visual and digital media and yet quite diverse in its scope, intellectual interests and goals, and methodologies. This year we introduced our new policy limiting members to a single role, and I am happy to say that we achieved our goal of having fewer panels overall with no apparent loss of quality in the program or member participation. With this conference we have made presentation abstracts available online on a voluntary basis, and I urge you to let them help you navigate your way through the program.

    The International Newsletter of Communist Studies Online XV (2009), no 22 23 Kostis Karpozilos, University of Crete, Rethymno (Greece): Labor Unions, Radicalism and the Communist Left in the Greek-American Communities (1920-1950). PhD Project.1 The aim of my dissertation is the presentation of the activities of the Greek-American left focusing mainly on the 1930s, when they reached their peak due to a series of factors such as the new line of the Communist International, the New Deal, the Spanish Civil War and the emergence of the dictatorship of Metaxas in Greece. More particularly, I intend to demonstrate that the communist left arose as a considerable force within the Greek- American communities proposing a distinct cultural and political program that combined class-consciousness with the process of Americanization. This research sheds light onto a neglected aspect of the history of the Greek presence in the United States since it reveals considerable transformations and changes of allegiances within the communities. Even though the communist left was in no way the hegemonic force among Greek-Americans, a series of sources indicate that it enjoyed considerable support. My research is based mainly on primary sources of the Greek-American left, the newspapers Organosis (Organization), Fone tou Ergatou (Voice of the Worker), Empros (Forward) and Ellinoamerikaniko Vema (Greek-American Tribune), the journal Protoporos (Pioneer), the publications (books and pamphlets) of various parties and organizations in Greece and the archival collection of the Communist Party of the United States. Moreover, I have worked on files of the Greek embassy and consulates in the United States, which are now held in the archives of the Greek Foreign Ministry, while scattered documents of interest have been located in various other institutions in Greece.
