Book excerpt: Written at a critical juncture in the history of the Labour Party, Speak for Britain! is a thought-provoking and highly original interpretation of the party's evolution, from its trade union origins to its status as a national governing party. It charts Labour's rise to power by re-examining the impact of the First World War, the general strike of 1926, Labour's breakthrough at the 1945 general election, the influence of post-war affluence and consumerism on the fortunes and character of the party, and its revival after the defeats of the Thatcher era. Controversially, Pugh argues that Labour never entirely succeeded in becoming 'the party of the working class'; many of its influential recruits - from Oswald Mosley to Hugh Gaitskell to Tony Blair - were from middle and upper-class Conservative backgrounds and rather than converting the working class to socialism, Labour adapted itself to local and regional political cultures.

This book was released on 2010-09-20 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is the United States the only advanced capitalist country with no labor party? This question is one of the great enduring puzzles of American political development, and it lies at the heart of a fundamental debate about the nature of American society. Tackling this debate head-on, Robin Archer puts forward a new explanation for why there is no American labor party--an explanation that suggests that much of the conventional wisdom about "American exceptionalism" is untenable. Conventional explanations rely on comparison with Europe. Archer challenges these explanations by comparing the United States with its most similar New World counterpart--Australia. This comparison is particularly revealing, not only because the United States and Australia share many fundamental historical, political, and social characteristics, but also because Australian unions established a labor party in the late nineteenth century, just when American unions, against a common backdrop of industrial defeat and depression, came closest to doing something similar. Archer examines each of the factors that could help explain the American outcome, and his systematic comparison yields unexpected conclusions. He argues that prosperity, democracy, liberalism, and racial hostility often promoted the very changes they are said to have obstructed. And he shows that it was not these characteristics that left the United States without a labor party, but, rather, the powerful impact of repression, religion, and political sectarianism.

Download or read book Radicalism in the States written by Richard M. Valelly and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1989-07-10 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concentrated in states outside the Northeast and the South, state-level third-party radical politics has been more widespread than many realize. In the 1920s and 1930s, American political organizations strong enough to mount state-wide campaigns, and often capable of electing governors and members of Congress, emerged not only in Minnesota but in Wisconsin and Washington, in Oklahoma and Idaho, and in several other states. Richard M. Valelly treats in detail the political economy of the Minnesota Farmer-Labor Party (1918-1944), the most successful radical, state-level party in American history. With the aid of numerous interviews of surviving organizers and participants in the party's existence, Valelly recreates the party's rise to power and subsequent decline, seeking answers to some broad, developmental questions. Why did this type of politics arise, and why did it collapse when it did? What does the party's history tell us about national political change? The answers lie, Valelly argues, in America's transition from the political economy of the 1920s to the New Deal. Combining case study and comparative state politics, he reexamines America's political economy prior to the New Deal and the scope and ironies of the New Deal's reorganization of American politics. The results compellingly support his argument that the federal government's increasing intervention in the economy profoundly transformed state politics. The interplay between national economy policy-making and federalism eventually reshaped the dynamics of interest-group politics and closed off the future of "state-level radicalism." The strength of this argument is highlighted by Valelly's cross-national comparison with Canadian politics. In vivid contrast to the fate of American movements, "province level radicalism" thrived in the Canadian political environment. In the course of analyzing one of the "supressed alternatives" of American politics, Valelly illuminates the influence of the national political economy on American political development. Radicalism in the States will interest students of economic protest, of national policy-making, of interest-group politics and party politics.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Argument of Clarence Darrow: In the Case of the Communist Labor Party in the Criminal Court, Chicago This ease was tried in the Criminal Court in Chicago in June, July and August, 1920. William Bross Lloyd, Arthur Procter, Max Bedacht, Jack Carney, L. E. Katterfeld, L. K. England, Ludwig Lore, Edgar Owen, Niels Kjar, Perry Shipman, John Vogel, Samuel Hankin, Edwin Firth, James E. Meisinger, Samuel Ash, N. J. Christensen, Oscar Jesse Brown, Morris S. Stolar, Charles Krumbein and Karl F. Sandberg were indicted under a statute passed by the legislature in 1919. Similar statutes were passed at the same time in about two-thirds of the states of the Union. These statutes were passed as a part of the campaign carried 011 immediately after the close of the war to deport and imprison members of the Communist Labor Party and the Communist Party and others, on the theory that they advocated the overthrow of the Government by force. The defendants wore all members of the Communist Labor Party and the indictment which charged conspiracy to advocate the overthrow of the Government by force rested upon their membership in this party. The statute of Illinois made it a crime for openly advocative by speech or writing the reformation or overthrow by violence or other unlawful means of the representative form of government of the United States, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Labor Party: A Speech, Explaining the Ideas and Objects of the Labor Movement, What Working-Men Want, Whom It Concerns, and How to Get It I shall assumé, iat the outset of the discussion, What no one Will deny, that labor is entitled to its earnings; and that it is the duty, both of individuals and society; obeying a divine admoni tion, to render unto all men and women according to their works. 6 Let us also bear in mind that class rule, the centralizing of politi cal or financial power in the hands of few, to the injury of the many, is wrong; and that law, like religion, should cover with the shield of its protection the whole people, especially defense less workers. It is the violation of these simple, self-evident truths which provokes the wide-spread, profound, and ominous agitation, called the labor movement. To attribute it. To the eight-hour impudence of trades-unions, or the harangues of vagabond lecturers, is no adequate explanation of the phe nomena. As well say that astronomers cause an eclipse, or geologists are' responsible for earthquakes. Labor reform does not fall from the sky, or spring out of the ground; it comes out of violated rights and interests, ' out of an almost universal dis satisfaction of the producing classes with the hard lot which legislation and custom have assigned them. When service, the chief if not the only virtue which comes out of man, is in such disrepute that a majority of laborers, in all nations, are poor enough to be ranked as the lower classes, while the fortunate possessors ofothers' earnings rank as upper classes in society, it is Yankee-like, .at least, to guess that society is wrong side up.
