Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 F 7377 POLITI 58^S8i ABSTRACT The British left has confronted a dilemma in forming its attitude towards Israel in the postwar period. The establishment of the Jewish state seemed to force people on the left to choose between competing nationalisms - Israeli, Arab and later, Palestinian. Over time, a number of key developments sharpened the dilemma. My central focus is the evolution of thinking about Israel and the Middle East in the British Labour Party. I examine four critical periods: the creation of Israel in 1948; the Suez war in 1956; the Arab-Israeli war of 1967 and the 1980s, covering mainly the Israeli invasion of Lebanon but also the intifada. In each case, entrenched attitudes were called into question and longer-term shifts were triggered in the aftermath.

The violence provoked by Sir Oswald Mosley’s British Union of Fascists (BUF) was one of the stimulating factors behind the enactment of the Public Order Act 1936.

  • Radical Publishing to "Reach the Million Masses": Alexander L
    Radical Publishing to "Reach the Million Masses": Alexander L. Trachtenberg and International Publishers, 1906-1966 David A. Lincove On 21 June 1951 the New York Times published several detailed stories about the FBI's arrest ofAmerican communists accused of violating the Smith Act, a 1940 federal statute that made it a crime to advocate, teach, organize, or help to organize the overthrow of the US government by means of force and vio- lence.' Among them was Alexander Leo Trachtenberg, part owner and opera- tor of International Publishers, a New York publishing house specializing in Marxist-Leninist books and pamphlets. After openly operating his publishing firm for 27 years, he now had to defend himself against the charge of publish- ing, circulating, and promoting books, articles, magazines, and newspapers that taught and advocated the violent overthrow of the US g~vernment.~ International Publishers contributed to the tremendous increase of propaganda and radical literature in the United States in the decades following World War I when fascist and communist regimes in Europe used the mass media to export ideas that competed with the democratic and capitalist foundation in the United States. Trachtenberg faced years of court battles and three months in prison before his convictions would be overturned; but instead of focusing on his legal struggles, this article examines his background and the operation of International Publishers from 1924 until his retirement in 1962. The case of Alexander Trachtenberg illustrates how a refugee from Russia became a leader in the Communist Party of the United States (CPUS) and established a disci- plined, mass publication program to support the party's program for revolu- tionary socialism.

  • Communists, the Cambridge Spies and the Making of Modern Britain
    Richard Davenport-Hines Enemies Within: Communists, the Cambridge Spies and the Making of Modern Britain «HarperCollins» Davenport-Hines R. Enemies Within: Communists, the Cambridge Spies and the Making of Modern Britain / R. Davenport-Hines — «HarperCollins», What pushed Blunt, Burgess, Cairncross, Maclean and Philby into Soviet hands? With access to recently released papers and other neglected documents, this sharp analysis of the intelligence world examines how and why these men and others betrayed their country and what this cost Britain and its allies.Enemies Within is a new history of the influence of Moscow on Britain told through the stories of those who chose to spy for the Soviet Union. It also challenges entrenched assumptions about abused trust, corruption and Establishment cover-ups that began with the Cambridge Five and the disappearance of Guy Burgess and Donald Maclean on the night boat to Saint-Malo in 1951.In a book that is as intellectually thrilling as it is entertaining and illuminating, Richard Davenport-Hines traces the bonds between individuals, networks and organisations over generations to offer a study of character, both individual and institutional. At its core lie the operative traits of boarding schools, the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, the Intelligence Division, Foreign Office, MI5, MI6 and Moscow Centre.Davenport- Hines tells many stories of espionage, counter-espionage and treachery. With its vast scope, ambition and scholarship, Enemies Within charts how the undermining of authority, the rejection of expertise and the suspicion of educational advantages began, and how these have transformed the social and political temper of modern Britain. © Davenport-Hines R.

    Monstrous predatory vampires and beneficent fairy-godmothers: British post-war colonial development in Africa Charlotte Lydia Riley UCL This thesis is submitted for the degree of PhD. 1 I, Charlotte Lydia Riley, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract This thesis explores the concept of colonial development, as enacted by the Attlee government during the immediate post-war period. It focuses on Africa, reflecting the ‘second colonial occupation’ of the continent during this period, and examines both economic and social welfare development initiatives. Post-war colonial development in the British African territories had two main aims: firstly, to increase the production of raw materials, to aid the reconstruction of the metropole and earn dollars on the international markets; and secondly, to improve the standard of living among colonial populations. This thesis explores the contradictions inherent in these two types of development. It can be seen that, although Britain was largely unsuccessful in this period with economic development programmes in Africa, it had some modest success with colonial social-welfare initiatives. The thesis also examines the extent to which Arthur Creech Jones, Colonial Secretary 1946-1950, shaped colonial policy in Africa based on his Fabian beliefs. It examines how far British colonial policy in this period can be characterised as ‘socialist’, and how far metropolitan and colonial populations were separated by narratives of progress and development in this period. This thesis also argues that colonial development in Africa in this period was shaped, rhetorically, ideologically and pragmatically, by the context of British reconstruction under the Marshall Plan.
