East London for Mosley: The British Union of Fascists in East London and South-W

Description: East London for Mosley by Thomas P. Linehan This study investigates the British Union of Fascists membership and support base in the East London and South West Essex centres of fascist activity, in particular its social class and occupational structure. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description During the 1930s East London and South West Essex were centres of intense fascist activity. This study investigates the British Union of Fascists membership and support base in these regions, in particular its social class and occupational structure. It focuses on local branches and cadres which contested political power in municipal and parliamentary constituencies, and by emphasising locality and the municipal context, it stresses the pluralism of Mosley fascism. With fascism and anti-minority movements again on the rise in Britain and Europe, this book underlines the importance of local conflicts and tensions in seeking to understand how such movements achieve support. Author Biography Thomas P. Linehan Table of Contents ...important, well-research study... L. J. Satre, Youngstown State University, Choice"Linehan"s book demonstrates that when a thorough regional study of a particular fascism is combined with a sophisticated methodology and grasp of the generic phenomenon, it is able to make a major contribution, not just to refuting un founded generalizations about the national movement, but to deepening our understanding of the dynamics of fascism as a whole." Dr. Roger Griffin, Oxford Brookes University, 20th Century British History"Dr Lineham"s work on the British Union of Fascists in east London and south-west Essex has undertaken an impressive burden and should provide the standard for subsequent local studies...As recognition of his accomplishment, one is enjoined to applaud this important and standard-setting contribution to our understanding of political extremism in inter-war Britain"- Larry L. Witherell- Jnl of Contemp. British HistoryContemporary Review, 1/8/97"This is a superb study."Jewish Chronicle, 7/3/97"Dr Linehan has assembled information and ideas with clarity."Labour History Review, Vol 62, No 3, 1997"This book significantly reinterprets British fascism ... It is important for a number of reasons ... Although not the definitive study of east London fascism, nobody will ever be able to write about the BUF again without significant reference to Linehan"s impressive book.
