Si son discours a trouve echo au Canada francais, il a eu aussi des retentissements au Canada anglais, aux Etats-Unis et en Europe. Adrien Arcand a puise son antisemitisme dans la judeophobie catholique qu'a perpetuee a travers les siecles l'aile radicale du catholicisme selon laquelle les Juifs conspiraient pour dominer le monde et detruire les bases de l'Eglise catholique romaine. Ces theories issues du Moyen Age ont ete reprises dans des ecrits antisemites, tels que les Protocoles des Sages de Sion, qui ont circule en Europe a partir de la fin du XIXe siecle, et que Arcand s'est evertue a diffuser sur tous les continents jusque dans les annees 1960. En 1945, la guerre est terminee. Aux yeux des autorites canadiennes, Adrien Arcand ne constitue plus une menace pour la securite nationale. Avec Paffaire Gouzenko et la Guerre froide, le danger du communisme retient toute l'attention. Adrien Arcand proflte de 1'occasion pour enfourcher le cheval de la lutte anticommuniste qui lui sert de vehicule pour ses diatribes antisemites. Si le Parti de l'Unite nationale du Canada a connu ses annees de gloire en 1938 et en 1939, son mouvement a connu un succes mitige dans le Canada francais de l'apres-guerre. Les echecs politiques d'Arcand sur la scene federale dans les annees 1950 en sont la plus belle illustration. Neanmoins, en eppusant la cause anticommuniste, les idees d'Arcand ont rejoint un certain nombre d'adeptes au pays dans les annees 1950 et 1960 et son influence sur la scene mondiale a I eu un impact sur la naissance de courants antisemites, tel que le negationnisme, notamment avec le Germano-Canadien Ernest Zundel qui considerait Adrien Arcand comme son mentor. Jusqu'a sa mort en 1967, Adrien Arcand a tente de prouver l'authenticite des theories d'un complot de domination mondiale des Juifs, nie la Shoah et accuse les Juifs de crimes de guerre contre les Palestiniens lors de la creation de l'Etat d'Israel en 1948. Adrien Arcand est decede en 1967 quelques mois a peine apres que le Vatican eut nie toute responsabilite au peuple juif dans la mort du Christ. Malgre cette reparation historique, le discours haineux d'Arcand a survecu a l'homme par le biais de ses heritiers de la section quebecoise du Parti de 1'Unite nationale du Canada qui ont continue a publier ses discours et ses ecrits jusqu'a l'aube du XXIe siecle.

Ce theme a fait l'objet d'une multitude d'ecrits depuis la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. En Europe, plus particulierement, cette epineuse question a ete scrutee a la loupe et abordee sous tous ses angles par les historiens qui ont cherche a comprendre les origines de ce phenomene qui, pour le siecle qui nous occupe, ne peut etre dissocie de revolution des ideologies fasciste et communiste. Au Canada par contre, 1'antisemitisme a fait l'objet de peu d'etudes a ce jour1. Pourtant, les ecrits d'antisemites canadiens, tels qu'Adrien Arcand, demontrent que le Canada de Pentre-deux-guerres n'a pas ete epargne par cette vague de haine qui a deferle sur les rives de 1'Occident. En cette periode trouble marquee par la crise economique de 1929 et le bouillonnement ideologique provoque par la revolution russe et la montee des fascismes europeens, une faction de la population canadienne attribua aux Juifs une lourde part de responsabilite de tous les malheurs qui frappaient leur societe et l'Oceident en general. Au Quebec, ces manifestations antisemites prirent une dimension particuliere en raison du caractere religieux de la province, du profil socio-economique des Canadiens francais et d'une forte immigration juive qui convergea vers Montreal durant les premieres decennies du XXe siecle. Si ce mouvement n'engendra que de rares actes de violence au Quebec, il se traduisit tout de meme au cours des annees 1930 par une vive opposition a 1 Deux etudes ont aborde la question.

    CI in World War II 113 CHAPTER 1 Counterintelligence In World War II Introduction President Franklin Roosevelts confidential directive, issued on 26 June 1939, established lines of responsibility for domestic counterintelligence, but failed to clearly define areas of accountability for overseas counterintelligence operations" The pressing need for a decision in this field grew more evident in the early months of 1940" This resulted in consultations between the President, FBI Director J" Edgar Hoover, Director of Army Intelligence Sherman Miles, Director of Naval Intelligence Rear Admiral W"S" Anderson, and Assistant Secretary of State Adolf A" Berle" Following these discussions, Berle issued a report, which expressed the Presidents wish that the FBI assume the responsibility for foreign intelligence matters in the Western Hemisphere, with the existing military and naval intelligence branches covering the rest of the world as the necessity arose" With this decision of authority, the three agencies worked out the details of an agreement, which, roughly, charged the Navy with the responsibility for intelligence coverage in the Pacific" The Army was entrusted with the coverage in Europe, Africa, and the Canal Zone" The FBI was given the responsibility for the Western Hemisphere, including Canada and Central and South America, except Panama" The meetings in this formative period led to a proposal for the organization within the FBI of a Special Intelligence Service (SIS) for overseas operations" Agreement was reached that the SIS would act

  • An Inquiry Into Contemporary Australian Extreme Right
    THE OTHER RADICALISM: AN INQUIRY INTO CONTEMPORARY AUSTRALIAN EXTREME RIGHT IDEOLOGY, POLITICS AND ORGANIZATION 1975-1995 JAMES SALEAM A Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor Of Philosophy Department Of Government And Public Administration University of Sydney Australia December 1999 INTRODUCTION Nothing, except being understood by intelligent people, gives greater pleasure, than being misunderstood by blunderheads. Georges Sorel. _______________________ This Thesis was conceived under singular circumstances. The author was in custody, convicted of offences arising from a 1989 shotgun attack upon the home of Eddie Funde, Representative to Australia of the African National Congress. On October 6 1994, I appeared for Sentence on another charge in the District Court at Parramatta. I had been convicted of participation in an unsuccessful attempt to damage a vehicle belonging to a neo-nazi informer. My Thesis -proposal was tendered as evidence of my prospects for rehabilitation and I was cross-examined about that document. The Judge (whose Sentence was inconsequential) said: … Mr Saleam said in evidence that his doctorate [sic] of philosophy will engage his attention for the foreseeable future; that he has no intention of using these exertions to incite violence.1 I pondered how it was possible to use a Thesis to incite violence. This exercise in courtroom dialectics suggested that my thoughts, a product of my experiences in right-wing politics, were considered acts of subversion. I concluded that the Extreme Right was ‘The Other Radicalism’, understood by State agents as odorous as yesteryear’s Communist Party. My interest in Extreme Right politics derived from a quarter-century involvement therein, at different levels of participation.

  • Anti-Semitism in Europe Before the Holocaust
    This page intentionally left blank P1: FpQ CY257/Brustein-FM 0 52177308 3 July 1, 2003 5:15 Roots of Hate On the eve of the Holocaust, antipathy toward Europe’s Jews reached epidemic proportions. Jews fleeing Nazi Germany’s increasingly anti- Semitic measures encountered closed doors everywhere they turned. Why had enmity toward European Jewry reached such extreme heights? How did the levels of anti-Semitism in the 1930s compare to those of earlier decades? Did anti-Semitism vary in content and intensity across societies? For example, were Germans more anti-Semitic than their European neighbors, and, if so, why? How does anti-Semitism differ from other forms of religious, racial, and ethnic prejudice? In pursuit of answers to these questions, William I. Brustein offers the first truly systematic comparative and empirical examination of anti-Semitism in Europe before the Holocaust. Brustein proposes that European anti-Semitism flowed from religious, racial, economic, and po- litical roots, which became enflamed by economic distress, rising Jewish immigration, and socialist success. To support his arguments, Brustein draws upon a careful and extensive examination of the annual volumes of the American Jewish Year Book and more than forty years of newspaper reportage from Europe’s major dailies. The findings of this informative book offer a fresh perspective on the roots of society’s longest hatred. William I. Brustein is Professor of Sociology, Political Science, and His- tory and the director of the University Center for International Studies at the University of Pittsburgh. His previous books include The Logic of Evil (1996) and The Social Origins of Political Regionalism (1988).

  • The Stormtrooper Family
    THE STORMTROOPER FAMILY : HOW SEXUALITY , S PIRITUALITY , AND COMMUNITY SHAPED THE HAMBURG SA A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Andrew Wackerfuss, M.A. Washington, DC December 15, 2008 Copyright 2008 by Andrew Wackerfuss All Rights Reserved ii THE STORMTROOPER FAMILY : HOW SEXUALITY , SPIRITUALITY , AND COMMUNITY SHAPED THE HAMBURG SA Andrew Wackerfuss, M.A. Thesis Advisor: Roger Chickering, Ph.D. ABSTRACT The dissertation explains the attraction of the stormtroopers ( Sturmabteilung ; SA), the Nazis’ paramilitary band of “political soldiers” in the city of Hamburg. It argues that social networks and personal relationships – including family ties, religious affiliations, and sexual bonds among stormtroopers – represented the primary means of recruiting and integrating new members into the Nazi movement. The SA emphasized the social, emotional, and political benefits that young men could accrue by joining the group, which established an array of social welfare systems during the dismal days of the depression. In return for food and housing, male camaraderie, a sense of ersatz family, and the promise of social and economic integration into the local community, young stormtroopers became the Party’s foot soldiers. SA pubs and barracks were simultaneously places of refuge and sites of violence, where the stormtroopers were taught to strive for a sacrificial death that Party propagandists could use to argue for Nazi heroism, Communist criminality, and republican inability to maintain order in the German state. Hamburg’s stormtroopers claimed to defend their communities and families.

Clarke republished anti-homeopathy correspondence from The Times known as Odium Medicum.1 His best friends included James Compton Burnett, Thomas Skinner, and Robert Cooper. They regularly dined together and after Cooper’s death they became known as the Cooper Club. Each of the members could themselves be the subject of an article. Clarke wrote the Dictionary because of his own laziness so that he would not have to search so hard in his books if he had it all in one place. So, he wrote down everything they said at dinner and the Dictionary of Materia Medica is full of symptoms with (B) and (RTC) as sources.2 In fact you cannot discover much about how Burnett prescribed from his own prolific writings, you have to read him with one eye on Clarke to see the real reasons for his prescriptions.

  • PART 2 the Enslaved People
    THE MOUNTRAVERS PLANTATION COMMUNITY - INTRODUCTION P a g e | 780 PART 2 The enslaved people Chapter 7 Mountravers under the Hugginses (1808-1834) ‘… from disobedience they proceeded to riot, and from riot to rebellion.’ Peter Thomas Huggins, 1810 A change in ownership transformed the lives of everyone on Mountravers. Once again, the proprietor was resident on the plantation and people became subject to a harsh regime. They rebelled and were severely punished. Their punishment received publicity in Britain and America and contributed to the debate about plantation slavery. The number of freed people in Nevis increased. Because they operated outside the plantation structures, institutions had to be adapted or established: an organised police force came into being, the jail was improved and a hospital and a lunatic asylum built. The legal system, too, had to be changed to take account of this new, significant layer of society. Another institution that underwent change was the church. It began to cater for enslaved people who could get baptised, married and buried with Christian ritual. Mountravers was at the forefront of developments that included the establishment of a chapel and a school. It was also among the estates that introduced new technology in the form of the plough and the steam engine. These innovations changed people’s work. Further changes took place when three neighbouring estates were added and workers moved between the different properties. The decade before the abolition of slavery was marked by droughts, hurricanes and earthquakes, and by increased acts of resistance: thefts, arson, burglaries, and murders. The 1820s were tough indeed.

  • The 45Th Infantry Division OKLAHOMA HISTORY CENTER EDUCATION DEPARTMENT
    The 45th Infantry Division OKLAHOMA HISTORY CENTER EDUCATION DEPARTMENT The National Guard The Army National Guard is older than the United States of America. The first National Guard units were the colonial militias used to defend the original thirteen colonies. For most of US history militia units served as the largest part of the US Army in times of war. The states, rather than the federal government, trained and armed these militia units. This meant that many of the units had inferior weapons or lacked proper training. At the start of World War I, the US government created the National Guard from the state militias of the United States. Since then, the US Army has funded and trained the National Guard and used National Guard Units in times of war or emergency. The 45th Infantry Division was a National Guard Unit. Men from the state militias of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico and Oklahoma made up the division. In September of 1940, the War Department called the 45th Infantry to federal service and began training for a possible war with Germany and Japan. During World War II, the 45th served in Italy, France, and Germany. The symbol for the 45th Infantry is an American Indian "Thunderbird," so people call the 45th the Thunderbird Division as well. This is a painting of the Massachusetts Militia’s first muster in 1636. A muster is when troops gather to train and prepare for combat. The 101st Engineer Battalion, 101st Field Artillery Regiment, and the 181st and 182nd Infantry Regiments are This icon was on the left arm shoulder patch of every descendants of the militia units first mustered in 1636, making soldier’s uniform in the 45th Infantry Division.
