NEUTRALISM: Its Meaning and Significance in Contemporary International Politics NEUTRALISM: its meaning and significance in contemporary international politics. by Abstract Neutralism - dissociation from the Cold ',Var - can take many forms. Ac a doctrine it is to be found in its most comprehensive forms in Asia and Africa; and because its chief proponents are leaders of their countries, it is a profoundly pragmatic and eclectic doctrine. Yet it is deeply grounded in certain widespread hopes and fears, and is usually nourished by nationalism. Neutralist foreign policies are shaped by, and yet have come to shape, the style and scope of Cold War rivalries. Six forms of policy neutralism may be distinguished. These are: new state neutralism; pioneer neutralism; neutral- ization; buffer status; traditional neutrality; and erstwhile isolationism. Each of these types of policy represents different ways in which a state can become neutralist, and it is suggested how many- etates fall into each of these classes. Nearly three quarters of the neutralist states in early 1961 are new states which have become independent since 1945* Many of them practise policies which are in some respects like those of three pioneer neutralists - India, Yugoslavia and Egypt. Since 1945 neutralism has been of growing significance internationally. The study of general contacts and relations and of general resemblances and differences is the only avenue to a general perspective without which neither profit nor pleasure can be extracted from historical research."

INTRODUCTION "Те must therefore use ordinary words. They separate us least from the past, which we are trying to understand, and from the present, with its Babel of tongues, in which and to which we must tell what we have understood. But let us not imagine that ordinary words are easy to use. To split the ism demands clarity of thought and constant watchfulness." Sir Keith Hancock - Country and Calling. "Neutralism is, of course, one of those rather rotund words which does not readily admit of definition." Mr. Menzies to the U.N. General Assembly, 5th October, i960. Since the end of the Second /orld Vfar the political neologism''" 'neutralism* has been used so often by so many people, in such different circumstances and with such different intentions, that its meaning seems to change, chameleon like, depending on the context in which it appears. Contemporary usage has not produced any real consistency in definition, though it iE clear that the word invariably has reference to the Cold War struggle between the United States and its allies on the one hand, and the Soviet Union and its satellites on the other. It'is the aim of this study to try to distinguish what are the main kinde of neutralism, by reference to what states do, and what statesmen say, to draw attention to their distinguishing features, and to assess their importance in contemporary international politics. As neutralism is по» such a protean term, it is necessary at the outset to clarify its intended use here. Neutralism is taken to mean dissociation from the Cold Уаг. This working definition is sufficiently broad in reference to cover such popular phrases as "non-alignment", "active and peaceful co-existence", "active policy for peace", "independent policy", "positive neutrality", "positive neutralism". During the course of the thesis some of the 1. I have briefly traced the emergence of this neologism in "Neutrality and the Emergence of the Concept of Neutralism", Review of Politics. April i960, pp. 255-268. JO favourite euphemisms, circumlocutions and synonyms for neutralism are indicated where appropriate. Indeed, the very looseness v.'ith »vhieh the term neutralism is used today has endowed it with an element of metaphor. But it is important to bear in mind all the time the difference between the central concern here - which is to try to describe the. main way с in 'hich since 1945 there has been dissociation from the Cold -7ar --arm the fact that the label neutralist is used tenderitiously and varyingly, both by Cola War protagonists and by self-avowed neutralists. Inevitably, the method adopted here necessarily involves controversial attribution of the label neutralist to states or persons A-here others might deny that this ic a permissible usage. It is hoped that the reasons for such attributions will be clear in their context. Obviously, there are many forms of dissociation from the Cold ?ar. It ia the task of this thesis to try to indicate which have to date been the major one8, and why. Ihoufh there is much popular confusion between the terms 'neutrality' and 'neutralism1, in this study they are regarded as quite distinct. By neutrality is meant non- involvement in war, while by neutralism is meant non-involve- ment in the Cold <7ar. Though the metaphor of 'Cold' far describes the slurring over of the differences between war and peace, it is important to remember that it is quite 10 Q possible for a state to be neutralist in its policy in the Cold War while at the same time being neutral with regard to a given local hot war. Also, a state can be involved in a local hot war while remaining neutralist in the Cold War. • And the fact that a state is neutralist in the Cold ffar is, of course, no guarantee that it would be able to be neutral in a global hot war. Although as terjis neutralism and nationalism are seldom confueed, their important interaction as political forces is one of the main themes of this study. over The main concerns and aims of this thesis can best be indicated byxreference to the contents of the four main chapters. The period under consideration is 1945 to early 1961, inclusive, and„referencesto events outside these limits are mostly incidental. , Chapter I outlines the main features and phases of the Cold War and thus describes the setting in'which neutralism occurs and is shaped.

  • JABOTINSKY on CANADA and the Unlted STATES*
    A CASE OFLIMITED VISION: JABOTINSKY ON CANADA AND THE UNlTED STATES* From its inception in 1897, and even earlier in its period of gestation, Zionism has been extremely popular in Canada. Adherence to the movement seemed all but universal among Canada's Jews by the World War I era. Even in the interwar period, as the flush of first achievement wore off and as the Canadian Jewish community became more acclimated, the movement in Canada functioned at a near-fever pitch. During the twenties and thirties funds were raised, acculturatedJews adhered toZionism with some settling in Palestine, and prominent gentile politicians publicly supported the movement. The contrast with the United States was striking. There, Zionism got a very slow start. At the outbreak of World War I only one American Jew in three hundred belonged to the Zionist movement; and, unlike Canada, a very strong undercurrent of anti-Zionism emerged in the Jewish community and among gentiles. The conversion to Zionism of Louis D. Brandeis-prominent lawyer and the first Jew to sit on the United States Supreme Court-the proclamation of the Balfour Declaration, and the conquest of Palestine by the British gave Zionism in the United States a significant boost during the war. Afterwards, however, American Zionism, like the country itself, returned to "normalcy." Membership in the movement plummeted; fundraising languished; potential settlers for Palestine were not to be found. One of the chief impediments to Zionism in America had to do with the nature of the relationship of American Jews to their country. Zionism was predicated on the proposition that Jews were doomed to .( 2 Michuel Brown be aliens in every country but their own.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis argues that Hobson’s approach to international relations coheres around his use of the biological analogy of society to an organism. An aspect of this ‘organic analogy’ - the theory of surplus value - is central to Hobson’s modification of liberal thinking on international relations and his reformulated ‘new liberal internationalism’. The first part outlines a theoretical framework for Hobson’s discussion of international relations. His theory of surplus value posits cooperation as a factor in the production of value understood as human welfare. The organic analogy links this theory of surplus value to Hobson’s holistic ‘sociology’. Hobson’s new liberal internationalism is an extension of his organic theory of surplus value.

  • Israeli Housing and Education Policies for Ethiopian Jewish Immigrants, 1984-1992
    The Center for Comparative Immigration Studies CCIS University of California, San Diego Politics, Race and Absorption: Israeli Housing and Education Policies for Ethiopian Jewish Immigrants, 1984-1992 By Fred A. Lazin Ben Gurion University of the Negev Working Paper 28 November 2000 Lazin / 2 Politics, Race and Absorption: Israeli Housing and Education Policies for Ethiopian Jewish Immigrants, 1984-1992 Fred A. Lazin Ben Gurion University of the Negev In response to a question about policies to absorb the recent influx of Soviet and Ethiopian immigrants (1989-1992) a former Israeli Prime Minister responded: “There was no policy... immigration itself creates solutions... and solves problems.” To the same question, a senior Jewish Agency absorption official commented: “... at the university you have ideas of vast plans... in life we do not have the time needed to make one... there is a need for quick and immediate decisions.” If education is the key to success for any group, it is doubly so for the Ethiopians. For them, it not only affects their chances for upward mobility, it plays a critical role in their integration into Israel's mainstream-modern, technological and mostly urban society (JDC, 1997). Introduction Since the early 1980s and until 1993 over 50,000 Black African Ethiopian Jews immigrated to Israel. Most "came from one of the most conservative, rural regions of Ethiopia, where modern means of communication and transportation were undeveloped, illiteracy among the adult population was more than 90 percent…" (Wagaw, 1993:26-28). As with previous Jewish immigrants, the Israeli government and Jewish Agency assumed responsibility to absorb them into Israeli society.1 Since independence in 1948 Israeli governments have pursued the goal of providing every Jewish immigrant a “decent home in a suitable living 1 Established in 1929 the Jewish Agency represented world Jewry and the World Zionist Organization in efforts to establish a Jewish State in Mandatory Palestine.

  • This Essay Explains Benjamin Disraeli Parliamentary Response to The
    Conservatism and British imperialism in India: finding the local roots of empire in Britain and India by Matthew Stubbings A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2015 © Matthew Stubbings 2015 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public ii Abstract This thesis explores the importance of political conservatism in shaping the ideological and political foundations of British imperialism in India between 1857 and 1914. From the Indian Revolt to the rise of Indian nationalism, it examines how British and Indian conservatives attempted to define a conceptual and institutional framework of empire which politically opposed liberal imperialism to the First World War. It relies upon a biographical analysis to examine how intellectual configurations defined distinct political positions on Indian empire. This study reveals the extent that local conservative inclination and action, through political actors such as Lord Ellenborough, Benjamin Disraeli, Lord Mayo, Lord Lytton, the Kathiawar States, Roper Lethbridge, and M.M. Bhownaggree, shaped public and partisan discourse on empire. It argues that British and Indian conservatives evoked shared principles centered in locality, prescription, and imagination to challenge, mollify, and supplant the universal and centralizing ambitions of liberal imperialists and nationalists with the employment of pre-modern ideas and institutions. It is argued that this response to liberalism conditioned their shared contribution and collaboration towards an imperial framework predicated principally upon respecting and supporting local autonomy and traditional authority in a hierarchical and divided India.

  • How to Be a Brit
    PENGUIN BOOKS HOW TO BE A BRIT George Mikes was born in 1912 in Siklos, Hungary. He studied law and received his doctorate in Budapest University. He became a journalist and was sent to London as a correspondent to cover the Munich crisis. He came for a fortnight but stayed on and made England his home. During the Second World War he broadcast for the BBC Hungarian Service where he remained until 1951. He continued working as a freelance critic, broadcaster and writer until his death in 1987. In 1946 he published How to be an Alien which went into thirty editions and identified the author as a humorist writer, although he had not intended the book to be funny. His other books include Über Alles, Little Cabbages, Shakespeare and Myself, Italy for Beginners, How to Unite Nations, How to be Inimitable, How to Scrape Skies, How to Tango, The Land of the Rising Ten, How to Run a Stately Home (with the Duke of Bedford), Switzerland for Beginners, How to be Decadent, Tsi-Tsa, English Humour for Beginners, How to be Poor, How to be a Guru and How to be God. He wrote a study of the Hungarian Revolution and is also the author of A Study of Infamy, an analysis of the Hungarian secret political police system, Arthur Koestler: The Story of a Friendship and The Riches of the Poor: A Journey round the World Health Organization. On his seventieth birthday, in 1982, he published his autobiography, How to be Seventy. Nicolas Bentley was born in Highgate in 1907 and educated at University College School, London, and Heatherley School of Art.

  • How to Be an Alien: George Mikes's Anthropology of Emigration
    How to Be an Alien: George Mikes’s Anthropology of Emigration Sándor Hites Research Center for the Humanities, Institute for Literary Studies (Hungarian Academy of Sciences), 11–13 Ménesi út, 1118 Budapest, Hungary [email protected] The paper examines the best-selling satirical book How to Be an Alien (1946) by the Hungarian émigré journalist and prominent British humorist George Mikes (1912–1987). I argue that tackling the issues of emigration, integration and belonging, Mikes employs a mock-anthropological approach: ironically reworking the notions of observation and imitation as survival strategies, HTBA grasps the absurdities underlying both British life and the newcomer’s struggle to blend in. The two sequels Mikes wrote to HTBA decades later demonstrate that once the “alien” has been successfully integrated, the sense of acquired Britishness only produces further absurdities. Examining HTBA and a selection of his other works, I also claim that Mikes’s satire is an unacknowledged contribution to the modern philosophical tradition of “strangeness” (exemplified by authors ranging from G. Simmel to H. Arendt, Th. Adorno and Z. Bauman). Today, Mikes’s legacy continues to inspire expatriates living in London and elsewhere. However, his emblematic work has also inspired a stream of books with diametrically opposite intentions: these encourage their native readers to regain their allegedly fading socio-cultural heritage. In the transformation of Mikes’s satire about aliens adapting to new environments into an encouragement of natives

  • 1 Transimperial Roots of American Anti-Imperialism
    Transimperial Roots of American Anti-Imperialism: The Transatlantic Radicalism of Free Trade, 1846-1920 [Chapter forthcoming in Kristin Hoganson and Jay Sexton, eds., Powering Up the Global: Taking U.S. History into Transimperial Terrain (Duke University Press, in press).] Marc-William Palen “The clear connection between the anti-imperialist movement and earlier movements for liberal reform has never received much attention,” Christopher Lasch observed sixty years ago. Despite the distance of time, his observation still remains remarkably salient today. Most scholarship on the American Anti-Imperialist League (AIL, 1898-1920) has continued to focus narrowly on the period between its founding in 1898 during the Spanish-American War and the end of the U.S. war in the Philippines in 1902. This chronological narrowing not only sidelines the continued anti-imperial activities of the AIL leaders in the years that followed; it also hides U.S. anti-imperial efforts to thwart transimperial projects in Africa, the Caribbean, and the Asia-Pacific in the decades that preceded the formation of the AIL.1 Considering that historians have long associated free trade with late-nineteenth and early-twentieth-century Anglo-American imperialism, this story begins at what, at first sight, might seem an unlikely starting point: the mid-nineteenth-century Anglo- American free-trade movement. Although this might at first bring to mind imperial ambitions of worldwide market access, meaning access to an entire imperial world system, free-trade ideas in fact spurred U.S. anti-imperialism at the turn of the twentieth century. Going well beyond opposition to mercantilist policies intended to benefit particular empires, they contained a far larger imperial critique.
