Tommaso Milani A thesis submitted to the Department of International History of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, September 2017. 1 DECLARATION I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it).

I declare that my thesis consists of 99,843 words. 2 ABSTRACT The thesis discusses the trajectory of the Belgian socialist thinker and activist Hendrik de Man (1885-1953) between 1914 and 1936 ca, with particular attention to his endeavours to renew Western European social democracy after the Great War. The first half of the thesis deals with de Man’s theoretical evolution. Having become convinced of the inadequacy of orthodox Marxism as a conceptual framework for the Left while serving as soldier and diplomat during WWI, de Man sought to overcome the split between reformism and revolutionary socialism by developing an ethical conception of socialism outlined in the book Zur Psychologie des Sozialismus (1926) and, subsequently, by elaborating planism, a democratic socialist ideology supposedly more in tune with the socio-economic conditions of the 1930s.

  • James & Frank Nagy –
    James & Frank Nagy – Easton Brothers Gone To War Part of the Historical Society of Easton’s year-long series: Easton in the Service. Immigrants aboard the SS Kroonland heading from Antwerp to New York for a new and better life in the early 20th Century It was cold and raining when a 20-year-old Hungarian by the name of Gabor Nagy disembarked the SS Kroonland on February 13, 1906 at the port of New York. The crossing from Antwerp had taken ten days. The ship’s manifest listed his final destination as Perth Amboy, New Jersey where he would reside with a “friend” until he found employment. After being examined at Ellis Island and answering a battery of questions, he stood in line with the others to exchange his money for US dollars. He was given exactly $9.23. The Money Exchange at Ellis Island in 1906 Welcome to America, Gabor! The RMS Caronia docked in New York on the evening of February 28, 1911. It had taken her eleven days to sail from Naples. The Caronia had the distinction of being the only ship in the Cunard fleet to be named after an American: Caro Brown, the granddaughter of Cunard’s New York agent. She would also be the first ship to transmit an ice warning to the RMS Titanic at 09:00 on April 14, 1912. Departing the ship at New York on March 1, 1911, was 17-year-old Hungarian Gizella Peto. Her final destination was listed as Bridgeport, Connecticut where she would join her father, Imre.

  • Wwii Veteran Honored
    80th Training Command Commander Maj. Gen. John P. McLaren, Jr., pres- ents a shadowbox of military awards to Emily Allen, who receives them on behalf of her grandfather Jesse Dunnaway, a World War II veteran of the 80th Infantry Division. The 80th Training Command held the awards cer- emony at their annual Virginia Beach Leadership Council at Virginia Beach, Va., on Jan. 31. Photo by Staff Sgt. Anne Lewis WWII Veteran Honored By Cecelia Smith MORE THAN SIXTY-FOUR YEARS PASSED, from October 19, 1945 to January 30, 2010, before a World War II Veteran was finally honored with a complete set of the medals he earned while serving with the HQ Company, 2d Battalion, 317th Infantry Regiment of the 80th Infantry Division. In an impressive ceremony in Virginia Beach recently, the family of this Veteran has finally seen their father and grandfather remembered for his patriotic service so long ago. Jesse M. Dunnaway, Sr. entered active service on October 3, 1942 and served with the 2d Battalion of his unit until just shortly before his discharge in October 1945. He attained the rank of TEC 5, and his service record indicated that he was entitled to a total of eight medals, including both Silver and Bronze Stars, along with various other recognitions. Some of his medals were presented upon sepa- ration; however, he never received the full complement of awards he had earned. Mr. Dunnaway was born in Gladys, Virginia on January 6, 1920. He was married when he entered the service and he and his wife, the former Goldie Hodges, were the parents of three children.
