Isolationism & Appeasement in Australia E. M. Andrews
> Isolationism & Appeasement ü w* in Australia C /3 Reactions to the European Grises, 1935-1939 ‘They tell me things are not too good in Europe, Dave.’ ‘What’s wrong? Drought?’ ‘Unk’ White, Bulletin, 26 July 1939 E. M. Andrews Australian foreign policy in the late 1930s has till now been a neglected topic in historical writing. In this book the author examines Australian reactions to the aggressions which led to World War II — Abyssinia, Spain, Austria, Czecho slovakia, and Poland. He describes the early support in Britain and Australia for the League of Nations, and goes on to discuss the causes of the change to a policy of appeasement, culminating in the Munich crisis of 1938, and Australian reactions to that crisis. Additionally, he compares Australian foreign policy at that time and in the sixties, when Australia again supports a powerful ally, this time in Vietnam. To those who lived through the crises of the thirties and now wish to see those years in perspective, as well as to readers of a younger generation, who seek the causes for the development of present-day attitudes to Australian foreign policy, this book will make absorbing reading. For teachers and students of the history of the period it will provide a welcome insight into the reactions of Australian politicians and people to the European crises and to Britain’s part in them. Price in Australia $6.95 This book was published by ANU Press between 1965–1991. This republication is part of the digitisation project being carried out by Scholarly Information Services/Library and ANU Press. -
Isolationism and the Soviet Public Discourse in the 1920S and Early
NATIONAL COUNCIL FOR SOVIET AND EAST EUROPEAN RESEARCH TITLE: ISOLATIONISM AND SOVIET PUBLIC DISCOURSE, In The 1920s And Early 1930s AUTHOR: Jeffrey Brooks CONTRACTOR: University of Minnesota PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Jeffrey Brooks COUNCIL CONTRACT NUMBER: 802-11 DATE: May 1990 The work leading to this report was supported by funds provided by the National Council for Soviet and East European Research- The analysis and interpretations contained in the report are those of the author. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (Contract No. 802-11) ISOLATIONISM AND SOVIET PUBLIC DISCOURSE In the 1920s and early 1930s by Jeffrey Brooks This is a study of the portrayal of public attitudes toward foreigners and foreign states in the Soviet press during the 1920s and early 193 0s, with a special emphasis on America. As Soviet society took shape, a new language of public life arose; existing traditions were jettisoned or amended, and new notions embraced or discarded- Daily life took on new meanings, and a repertoire of frameworks for understanding Soviet experience and its potential unfolded. Within these frameworks, representation of relations with other states and peoples was critical. Isolationism and xenophobia became hallmarks of the Stalinist system, and without them much of what happened would have been impossible, but the long story of Soviet history reveals a counterpoint. The xenophobia of the Stalin years faded quickly after 1953, first into ambivalence and then into a widely felt desire to participate fully in world systems and interact with other peoples. Xenophobia and much else once deemed immutably Soviet have now been marginalized, and yet something of the earlier experience remains. -

AM IDEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF THE SENATE WARTIME ADDRESSES OF ROBERT MARION LA FOLLETTE Harry R. Gianneschi A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December . 197.5 618206 Vu.w ii Wo • ABSTRACT Robert Marion La Follette, leading American progres sive, Governor of Wisconsin for three terms, and U. S. Senator from 1905 to 1925, was selected by the 1957 Senate as one of five of its greatest members throughout this country’s history. In light of Ij.s subsequent praiseworthy reputation and of the popular support he maintained during most of his career, the reason for his publicly denounced "anti-war" stance in 1917 has remained a mystery to many critics. Viewing the stance as a break-away from his previous beliefs, historians have tagged him as pacifistic, ignorant, or demagogic in his approach to the war. This study was designed to investigate elements in La Follette's life and speaking which could clarify the motivation for his Senate speeches from April 4 to October 6 in 1917. Research on this topic was devoted to an in-depth investigation of La Follette's entire speaking career. Texts of the speeches he gave during his life, editorial writings presented in La Follette's Magazine, and the personal papers of La Follette, members of his family, and close friends, all located in the Wisconsin State Histori cal Society Archives, were studied. Reactions were discovered in accounts by his contemporaries and the newspapers of the day. -

Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Advisor: Dr. Christopher Browning Reader: Dr. Konrad Jarausch Reader: Dr. Lloyd Kramer Reader: Dr. Michael Hunt Reader: Dr. Terence McIntosh ©2007 Kevin Mason ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Kevin Mason: Building an Unwanted Nation: The Anglo-American Partnership and Austrian Proponents of a Separate Nationhood, 1918-1934 (Under the direction of Dr. Christopher Browning) This project focuses on American and British economic, diplomatic, and cultural ties with Austria, and particularly with internal proponents of Austrian independence. Primarily through loans to build up the economy and diplomatic pressure, the United States and Great Britain helped to maintain an independent Austrian state and prevent an Anschluss or union with Germany from 1918 to 1934. In addition, this study examines the minority of Austrians who opposed an Anschluss . The three main groups of Austrians that supported independence were the Christian Social Party, monarchists, and some industries and industrialists. These Austrian nationalists cooperated with the Americans and British in sustaining an unwilling Austrian nation. Ultimately, the global depression weakened American and British capacity to practice dollar and pound diplomacy, and the popular appeal of Hitler combined with Nazi Germany’s aggression led to the realization of the Anschluss . -
