A Secondary Political Bibliography of Bertrand Russell by Kenneth Blackwell A secondary political bibliography of Bertrand Russell by Kenneth Blackwell THIS BIBLIOGRAPHY CONTAINS 48 items. Most bibliographies of this kind turn out longer than one supposed they would, but the surprising fact is the pattern the bibliography displays. Over 60% of the items have appeared since Russell's death in 1970. This is surely an indication of the growth of Russell studies in the past nine years. But it is probably also an indication of the incompleteness of the bibliography for earlier years. The inter-war period seems particu­ larly incomplete. Additions to the bibliography will be gratefully received and listed in a future issue of Russell. Apart from a very few exceptions (justified chiefly by their length), I have not included reviews of Russell's books. Nor have I included dissertations and theses, and articles concerned mainly with the particular positions Russell took on political affairs. All three ofthese omitted categories deserve their own bibliographies. 1919 J. W.

  • Rethinking the Historiography of United States Communism: Questioning American Radicalism*
    chapter 7 Rethinking the Historiography of United States Communism: Questioning American Radicalism* We ask questions of radicalism in the United States. Many on the left and amongst historians researching and writing about its past are driven by high expectations and preconceived notions of what such radicalism should look like. Our queries reflect this: Why is there no socialism in America? Why are workers in the world’s most advanced capitalist nation not ‘class con- scious’? Why has no ‘third party’ of labouring people emerged to challenge the established political formations of money, privilege and business power? Such interrogation is by no means altogether wrong-headed, although some would prefer to jettison it entirely. Yet these and other related questions continue to exercise considerable interest, and periodically spark debate and efforts to reformulate and redefine analytic agendas for the study of American labour radicals, their diversity, ideas and practical activities.1 Socialism, syndicalism, anarchism and communism have been minority traditions in us life, just as they often are in other national cultures and political economies. The revolu- tionary left is, and always has been, a vanguard of minorities. But minorit- ies often make history, if seldom in ways that prove to be exactly as they pleased. Life in a minority is not, however, an isolated, or inevitably isolating, exper- ience. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries the us gave rise to a signific- ant left, rooted in what many felt was a transition from the

INTRODUCTION It is an honor to talk today about the first woman leader of the most important civil liberties organization in the United States-a person who has combined the pursuit of American civil liberties with a deep interest in international law; who has viewed the civil liberties project as deeply bound up in a project of advancing feminism and women's freedoms; who has taken up the defense of individual rights in a time of national crisis, forging transatlantic networks to do so; who has resisted the dramatic expansion of the police powers of the federal government in a time of external threats; who has butted heads with an attorney general widely seen as overreaching; and who has defended dissenters even as terrorists caused mayhem and death in her home base in lower Manhattan.

    CONSERVATISM IN MODERN AMERICA Spring 2021 Political Science 238 Professor Ken I. Kersch Email: [email protected] In this class, we will canvas and critically reflect on the political thought that shaped the political understandings of post-World War II American conservative movement. We will consider, amongst other things, foundational understandings concerning God, place, and the state, alongside areas to which they have been applied in U.S. political life, including economics, race, and a selection of contemporary public policies. Covid-19 Logistics: Class Meetings/Attendance: This class will be taught via Zoom, live and synchronous, Tuesdays and Thursdays, 3- 4:15 PM, EST. Except in cases of illness or other important life issue, students are expected to regularly attend class on Zoom at the usual time. I expect your live, real-time face to be visible live on Zoom (rather than a screen saver or logo). It is important for the dynamics of the class that I and the other students in the class be able to see you, just as we would in a live, in-person class. Exemptions will be granted for legitimate reasons on a case-by-case basis. Notification re Recordings: This class will be recorded. The purpose of this is to provide access to material for students enrolled in this class who miss the session for an excused absence (such as illness or technical difficulty). While all of the recordings will be stored within the Canvas site, they will only be available for viewing by individual permission to course students with excused absences.

  • From Confession to Exposure Transitions in 1940S Anticommunist Literature Alex Goodall
    chapter 6 From Confession to Exposure Transitions in 1940s Anticommunist Literature Alex Goodall On August 23, 1939, the Soviet regime signed the pact with Nazi Germany that ripped apart the Popular Front alliance of communists and left-wing progressives that had dominated radical politics in the second half of the 1930s. The betrayal was especially painful for the radical American artists who had believed themselves to be working on the “cultural front,” and their tools of trade ensured that they were well placed to give cogent expres- sion to their feelings.1 The result was a literature of alienation in the early 1940s that formed a precursor to the larger shift toward anticommunism in American culture in the Cold War. Since ex-communists and disappointed fellow travelers moved across the political spectrum over the coming decade, their influence was felt in left- wing, liberal, and conservative circles alike. Politicians and public figures of all stripes in the Cold War deployed arguments that had been initially artic- ulated by these disappointed radicals. Nevertheless, the initial literary prod- ucts of what Alfred Kazin called the “Great Disillusionment” were written at a time when anticommunism had not yet become an all-consuming cul- tural force in American life.2 The United States and Soviet Union fought as allies between 1941 and 1945, and while there was little love for communism in the American mainstream, Nazism and Japanese militarism were seen as greater dangers to world peace. New Deal liberals highlighted the work that the Red Army was doing to hold back the Nazis.

Which kind? There are many possible answers, and in the future, there will be many more. Right now, the United States contains passionate young thinkers who favor radical reform. They are in their twenties. Some of them sound crazy. They have bold ideas about liberty, equality, and democracy, and about what is wrong with our nation. You haven’t heard their names, but you will. In a hundred years, people will write whole books about them. Some of them believe that we have ignored a form of systematic injustice and that the Constitution should be amended to stamp it out.

As the term “socialism” begins to resonate again within popular American political discourse (and as a potentially viable course of action rather than a curse for damnable offense), it is worthwhile to trace its significance within American history to better understand its aesthetic dimensions, its radical difference, and its way of devising problems and answers. In short, my thesis poses the question: what ideological structures does The Masses present as an alternative to its constructed Other, capitalism? To be clear, I want to acknowledge that often when the signifier of “socialism” is utilized, it does not necessarily connote a specific agenda.
