JUDICIAL FORGING OF A POLITICAL WEAPON: THE IMPACT OF THE COLD WAR ON THE LAW OF CONTEMPT MELVIN B. LEWIS* I. THE ROOTS OF CONTEMPT JURISPRUDENCE Contempt, in its legal sense, is a concept under whose rubric a court or legislative body punishes acts which impede the perform- ance of its official function. The details of its provenance are un- clear. It arose, however, at a time in English history when the powers of the monarch were absolute, and the judicial and parlia- mentary functions were subservient to royal authority. Thus, a dis- respectful act directed toward such a body was defiance of the crown itself, and the contempt power was designed to vindicate royal authority.

  • The Life of the Party: Experiencing American Communism
    Orion Teal The Life of the Party: Experiencing American Communism Nine years ago, while lost in the serpentine shelves of Powell’s “City of Books” in downtown Portland, Oregon, I discovered two books that would change my life: Nell Irving Painter’s The Narrative of Hosea Hudson: His Life as a Negro Communist in the South (1979) and Robin D.G. Kelley’s Hammer and Hoe: Alabama Communists in the Great Depression (1990). The fascinating, intertwined stories in the two books kindled my historical imagination, leading me to write a senior thesis exploring African Americans’ interest in the Soviet Union that was a springboard to my studies for my doctoral studies in History at Duke. Painter and Kelley’s works also began a passion for collecting books and ephemera on the American radical tradition. My collection has grown considerably over the years to more than one hundred books on the history of American radicalism and nearly as many pieces of political ephemera, from pinbacks and pamphlets to postcards and posters. The bibliography listed below reflects one of the collection’s strengths: materials that deal with the personal experience of the American Communist Party. Through memoirs, autobiographies, and biographies we can see the politics of American Communism through the eyes of those who lived through the movement’s fleeting triumphs and many tribulations. My interest in the personal side of the American radical experience is directly connected to my dissertation, which examines the role young people played in the New York Left after World War II. The dissertation focuses particularly on the many spaces throughout the city and its environs where young people came into contact with radical ideas, including cooperative housing projects, progressive private schools, summer camps, labor union youth groups, student activist organizations, and secular Jewish shules.

    100 Things You Should Know About Communism in the U. S. A. Forty years ago, Communism was just a plot in the minds of a very few peculiar people. Today, Communism is a world force governing millions of the human race and threatening to govern all of it. Who are the Communists? How do they work? What do they want? What would they do to you? For the past IO years your committee has studied these and other questions and now some positive answers can be made. Some answers will shock the citizen who has not examined Com- munism closely. Most answers will infuriate the Communists. These answers are given in five booklets, as follows: 1. One Hundred Things You Should Know About Commu- nism in the U. S. A. 2. One Hundred Things You Should Know About .Commu- nism in Religion. 3. One Hundred Things You Should Know About Commu- nism in Education. 4. One Hundred Things You Should Know About Commu- nism in Labor. 5. One Hundred Things You Should Know About Commu- nism in Government. These booklets are intended to help you know a Communist when you hear him speak and when you see him work. If you ever find yourself in open debate with a Communist the facts here given can be used to destroy his arguments completely and expose him as he is for all to see. Every citizen owes himself and his family the truth about Com- munism because the world today is faced with a single choice: To go Communist or not to go Communist.

  • Reading the Autobiography of American Communism*
    IRSH 53 (2008), pp. 395–423 doi:10.1017/S0020859008003532 r 2008 Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis Was the Personal Political? Reading the Autobiography of American Communism* J AMES R. BARRETT SUMMARY: Taking the communist memoir as a sub-genre of working-class autobiography, the article analyzes, first, the characteristics of the communist autobiography, the conditions under which such works were produced, and their intended functions. Second, the article considers some personal dimensions of American communist history and how this more subjective side of the history relates to the more familiar political narrative of the movement. Recent feminist and other theory of autobiography are employed to analyze approximately forty communist autobiographies and other personal narrative material to analyze personal love and marriage, child rearing and family life, and self-identity within the party. INTRODUCTION Amid calls for global approaches to the study of history, some labor historians have turned to the more personal dimensions of working-class life through the study of biography and autobiography. While an emphasis on social process, collective experience, and material conditions has largely defined social history for a generation, recent theory, the decline of the labor movement, and political transformations have encouraged some to consider the more subjective aspects of working peoples’ lives. At the same time, the history of American communism has enjoyed a renaissance, with a new generation of anti-communist scholars
