Introduction Notes Introduction 1. Fascism’ (with an upper case ‘F’) is used to refer to the movement and regime in Italy; ‘fascism’ (lower case ‘f’) is used to refer to the generic ideology. ‘Roman Catholic’ is styled as ‘Catholic’ throughout. 2. E.E. Reynolds (1973) The Roman Catholic Church in England and Wales: a short history (Wheathampstead: Clarke), p. 359. 3. These figures are from 1936, originally from the Catholic Directory, 1937, reprinted in the appendix to P.F. Anson (1937) The Catholic Church in Modern Scotland 1560–1937 (London: Burns, Oates and Washbourne), p. 221. 4. For a much fuller discussion of this see N. Riddell (1997) ‘The Catholic Church and the Labour Party, 1918–1931, Twentieth Century British History, 8, 165–193. 5. T. Gallagher (1983) ‘Scottish Catholics and the British Left, 1918–1939’, The Innes Review, 34, 17–42, p. 26. 6. A. Hastings (2001) A History of English Christianity, 4th edn (London: S.C.M.

Distributism was a political movement influenced by Catholic social teach- ing which sought to ‘distribute’ private property as widely as possible. It saw itself as a middle way between state socialism and liberal capitalism. 10. A good example would be George Orwell, who saw British Catholicism as having fascist tendencies. See J. Rodden (1989) ‘George Orwell and British Catholicism’, Renascence, 41, p. 144. 11. S. Rawnsley (1980) ‘The Membership of the British Union of Fascists’, in K. Lunn and R.C. Thurlow (eds.)

Rawnsley (1981) ‘Fas- cists and Fascism in Britain in the 1930s: a case study of Fascism in the North of England in a period of economic and political change’, PhD thesis, University of Bradford. 12. See for example, Roger Griffin (ed.) (2005) Fascism, Totalitarianism and Polit- ical Religion (London: Routledge) and M. Burleigh (2006) Sacred Causes: religion and politics from the European dictators to Al Qaeda (London: HarperPress). 13. For a number of responses to Catholic writers and their attitude to fas- cism see the Chesterton Review (1999), 25 especially, K. L. Morris, ‘Fascism and British Catholic Writers 1924–1939’.

Pearce (2002) Old Thunder: a life of Hilaire Belloc (London: Harper Collins); J.P. Corrin (1981) G.K. Chesterton and Hilaire Belloc: the battle against modernity (Athens OH and London: Ohio University Press) and J.P. McCarthy (1978) Hilaire Belloc: Edwardian radical (Indianapolis: Liberty Press). For Waugh see especially C. Sykes (1985) Evelyn Waugh: a biography rev. edn (London) and M. Stannard (1986) Evelyn Waugh: the early years 1903–1939 (London: Dent). For an example of a critical attack on Greene’s portrayal of Jews see A. F.

Signed: Alban Webb ABSTRACT The Second World War had radically changed the focus of the BBC's overseas operation from providing an imperial service in English only, to that of a global broadcaster speaking to the world in over forty different languages. The end of that conflict saw the BBC's External Services, as they became known, re-engineered for a world at peace, but it was not long before splits in the international community caused the postwar geopolitical landscape to shift, plunging the world into a cold war. At the British government's insistence a re-calibration of the External Services' broadcasting remit was undertaken, particularly in its broadcasts to Central and Eastern Europe, to adapt its output to this new and emerging world order.

  • The Law of Conscience Catholic Teaching on Conscience from Leo XIII to John Paul II
    Anthony R. Lusvardi, SJ The Law of Conscience Catholic Teaching on Conscience from Leo XIII to John Paul II Pope Benedict XVI’s recent trip to Britain has placed Catholic teaching on conscience again in the public eye. On his pilgrimage in September 2010, Benedict beatified the English convert John Hen- ry Newman, among whose most famous writings are those dealing with the dignity of conscience, and the Holy Father’s address to the British Parliament in Westminster Hall repeatedly referred to an- other Englishman important to Catholic thinking on conscience, St. Thomas More. In his Westminster Hall address, the pope suggested that More’s case is particularly relevant in the midst of modern sec- ularism, where it is often advised that Christians serving in public roles “should be required at times to act against their conscience.”1 Much of Catholic social thought on conscience, in fact, could have been written with More’s case in mind. Leo XIII and Pius XI, the two popes who wrote most extensively on conscience between the First and Second Vatican Councils, beatified and canonized More in 1886 and 1935, respectively. Leo and Pius showed par- ticular concern to defend the rights of Catholic consciences against interference from hostile civil governments, and their writings set the stage for the memorable passages in Gaudium et Spes and Dig- logos 15:2 spring 2012 14 logos nitatis Humanae in which Vatican II addressed the subject directly. The Council’s treatment of conscience expands upon these popes’ teaching but remains in essential continuity with the earlier tradi- tion.

This study extends previous research by analyzing what the Catholic Church has said over the course of centuries on issues related to society, economics, and the environment, as embodied in the core concepts of subsidiarity, solidarity, stewardship, the common good, and integral human development.

It seemed to me a simple and sensible way of saying that the reader of these pages must not look for many jokes, certainly not merely for jokes, because these are controversial essays, covering all subjects on which a controversialist is challenged, and not particular subjects chosen as they are chosen by an essayist. It is an awful revelation of the world of unreason into which we have wandered, that people more practical than I are convinced that if I say that this is apart from joking, everyone will think it is a joke.

  • Shirt Movements in Interwar Europe: a Totalitarian Fashion
    Ler História | 72 | 2018 | pp. 151-173 SHIRT MOVEMENTS IN INTERWAR EUROPE: A TOTALITARIAN FASHION Juan Francisco Fuentes 151 Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain [email protected] The article deals with a typical phenomenon of the interwar period: the proliferation of socio-political movements expressing their “mood” and identity via a paramilitary uniform mainly composed of a coloured shirt. The analysis of 34 European shirt movements reveals some common features in terms of colour, ideology and chronology. Most of them were consistent with the logic and imagery of interwar totalitarianisms, which emerged as an alleged alternative to the decaying bourgeois society and its main political creation: the Parliamentary system. Unlike liBeral pluralism and its institutional expression, shirt move- ments embody the idea of a homogeneous community, based on a racial, social or cultural identity, and defend the streets, not the Ballot Boxes, as a new source of legitimacy. They perfectly mirror the overwhelming presence of the “brutalization of politics” (Mosse) and “senso-propaganda” (Chakhotin) in interwar Europe. Keywords: fascism, Nazism, totalitarianism, shirt movements, interwar period. Resumo (PT) no final do artigo. Résumé (FR) en fin d’article. “Of all items of clothing, shirts are the most important from a politi- cal point of view”, Eugenio Xammar, Berlin correspondent of the Spanish newspaper Ahora, wrote in 1932 (2005b, 74). The ability of the body and clothing to sublimate, to conceal or to express the intentions of a political actor was by no means a discovery of interwar totalitarianisms. Antoine de Baecque studied the political dimension of the body as metaphor in eighteenth-century France, paying special attention to the three specific func- tions that it played in the transition from the Ancien Régime to revolutionary France: embodying the state, narrating history and peopling ceremonies.

  • Sir Arnold Lunn
    The Canadian Ski Hall of Fame Le Temple de la renommée du ski canadien Sir Arnold Lunn Inducted CSHF: 1990 Hometown: Madras, India / London, England Date of Birth: April 18, 1888 Date of Death: June 2, 1974 Affiliated Discipline(s): Builder Active Career Date(s): 1911 - 1958 FIS Code: n/a Club: Alpine Club, Kandahar Ski Club Sir Arnold Lunn (1888-1974) wrote his own epitaph in the form of a prayer: Let me give thanks, dear Lord, in the frailty of age, for the beloved mountains of my youth, for the challenge of rock and for the joy of skiing, for the friends with whom I climbed and skied, and above all, dear Lord, for the moments of revelation when the moments of temporal beauty of the mountains reinforces my faith in the eternal beauty which is not subject to decay. His eloquent words convey the profound influence the mountains of Switzerland had on this Englishman who may be rightly described as the founding father of modern alpine skiing. It was his use of skis as an aid to allow access to mountain climbing in the winter months that became the forerunner of the alpine version of skiing and the extraordinary growth of a sport that spread across the alpine regions of the world. He founded the Alpine Club in 1908, the first such club devoted to the alpine version of skiing. Prior to this, skiing activities had been restricted to the Scandinavian model of langlauf or cross-country and ski jumping. He continued to seek ways of testing alpine skiing ability that resulted, on January 7th, 1911, in the running of a pivotal event, the first downhill race, the Roberts of Kandahar Challenge Cup, a race which spawned Kandahar events in a number of other countries including Canada, the Quebec Kandahar, in 1931.

  • Anti-Communism, Neoliberalisation, Fascism by Bozhin Stiliyanov
    Post-Socialist Blues Within Real Existing Capitalism: Anti-Communism, Neoliberalisation, Fascism by Bozhin Stiliyanov Traykov A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology University of Alberta © Bozhin Stiliyanov Traykov, 2020 Abstract This project draws on Alex William’s (2020) contribution to Gramscian studies with the concept of complex hegemony as an emergent, dynamic and fragile process of acquiring power in socio- political economic systems. It examines anti-communism as an ideological element of neoliberal complex hegemony in Bulgaria. By employing a Gramcian politico-historical analysis I explore examples of material and discursive ideological practices of anti-communism. I show that in Bulgaria, anti-communism strives to operate as hegemonic, common-sensual ideology through legislative acts, production of historiography, cultural and educational texts, and newly invented traditions. The project examines the process of rehabilitation of fascist figures and rise of extreme nationalism, together with discrediting of the anti-fascist struggle and demonizing of the welfare state within the totalitarian framework of anti-communism. Historians Enzo Traverso (2016, 2019), Domenico Losurdo (2011) and Ishay Landa (2010, 2016) have traced the undemocratic roots of economic liberalism and its (now silenced) support of fascism against the “Bolshevik threat.” They have shown that, whether enunciated by fascist regimes or by (neo)liberal intellectuals, anti-communism is deeply undemocratic and shares deep mass-phobic disdain for political organizing of the majority. In this dissertation I argue that, in Bulgaria, anti- communism has not only opened the ideological space for extreme right and fascist politics, it has demoralized left political organizing by attacking any attempts for a politics of socio- economic justice as tyrannical.

As a group the aristocracy faced a set of circumstances unique to their class. These circumstances created the fear of another devastating war, loss of Empire, and the spread of Bolshevism. The conclusion was determined by researching numerous books and articles. When events required sacrifice to save king and country, the aristocracy forfeited privilege and wealth to save England.
