Against this background, contacts made with the Labour and Socialist International and the International Federation of Trades Unions are considered and the distinctive approaches of women and young people are discussed. The history of these formal organisations is balanced by an account of the wide-ranging contacts of the broad Labour Movement in fields such as sport, education, Esperanto, music and art. Its protagonists' belief in international socialism is seen to be a faith which survived fascism and war, and continued to give hope for the future.
This book will be of interest to students of Labour history and politics, as well as international and European studies.
Reviews / Votes
'...a working-class internationalist culture flourished in [the 1930s] and it is this culture, poised as it was between hope and apprehension, that Christine Collette captures so effectively in her carefully researched and well-illustrated monograph.' Labor History, Vol. 40, No. 3 'Collette admirably conveys the spirit of the period, when a horror of war, faith in the Bolshevik revolution, and opposition to Fascism inspired in groups of working people...a vision of a new international community...' International History Review, Vol. XXI, No. 3 'This book provides an excellent source for an important and under-researched subject.' Labour History Review, Vol. 64, No. 3 'Collette sheds light on a neglected topic, and does so with elan...a work of considerable quality... should be required reading for all those who are interested in British politics, the British left, and nationalism and internationalism in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.' Twentieth Century British History, Vol. 11More details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
