Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. This is the first comprehensive study of the political ideology and history of the Labour Party's world-view and foreign policy. It argues that the development of Labour's foreign policy perspective should be seen not as the development of a socialist foreign policy but as an application of the ideas of liberal internationalism. The first volume outlines and assesses the early development and evolution of Labour's world-view. It then follows the course of the Labour party's foreign policy during a tumultuous period on the international stage, including the First World War, the Russian Revolution, the Spanish Civil War, the build up to and violent reality of the Second World War, and the start of the Cold War. This highly readable book provides an excellent analysis of Labour's foreign policy during the period in which Labour experienced power for the first time.

Download or read book Labour written by Bill Simpson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1973. In this study, the author adopts a historical approach, tracing the evolution of socialist thinking during the past century and relating this to the growth of the union movement. The Taff Vale judgement, the Osborne judgement, the roles of the SDF, the Fabians, and the ILP - these episodes are re-examined from a novel perspective, and the historical material is frequently illuminated by the use of contemporary analogies. The second half of the book presents an analytical study of differing union political theories and attitudes against the modern industrial background. Here the Marxist case is studied in depth and contrasted with the views of the Social Democrats. The author then considers the ownership and control of the economy, industrial relations, prices and incomes and inflation, making it clear where he feels the movement should stand on the key political issues of today. Finally, the book suggests the way in which the Labour Party and the trade unions should organise for power in the country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This popular study covers two major topics: the formation of the Labour Party and its emergence as the main rival to the conservatives.

Download or read book Ramsay MacDonald and the Labour Party written by Louie Clark and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-08-18 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A short history of the first ever Labour government and their leader, Ramsay MacDonald. As Britain faced widespread political and social change during the 1920s and early 30s which were largely defined by the workers unrest and the Great Depression, the people had little political representation beyond the Labour Party. This book explores the political history of this first ever Labour Government while trying to balance the Marxist history view that MacDonald betrayed the cause and its counterpart which championed the Scot as an exemplary moderate. Ideal 47 page summary of Labour History in the 1920s and 30s as well as offering a wide array of references, this book should help any student looking to learn about Socialism, Communism and the Democratic process that led us to the modern party that we see today.

Download or read book Social Class and Marxism written by Neville Kirk and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years historians and other social scientists have widely questioned the continued relevance of social class - as historical relationship, as sociological category, as philosophical concept, and in terms of its enduring political significance. The success of the British Conservative Party since 1979, combined with the weaknesses and failures of the Labour movement, have led historians and social scientists to reconsider the general nature of connections between the 'social' and the 'political' and the specific relations between the working class and socialist and Labour politics. This collection of essays is a multi-disciplinary critique of the new revisionism, which demonstrates the continued vitality and promise of non-reductionist and non-determinist modes of class analysis.
