This book is an in-depth exploration of the Popular Front and
United Front campaigns in Britain in the late 1930s. Dr Blaazer
aims to dispel the myth that these campaigns can be understood
largely as a ruse engineered by the Communists into which
non-Communists were blindly drawn. Instead he searches for the idea
of 'progressive unity' in earlier episodes in the history of the
British progressive tradition. By re-assessing the significance of
these episodes, and by reconsidering the role of seminal
progressive thinkers, he shows that the relationships between
liberals and socialists, reformists and revolutionaries, had long
been both intimate and fluid. Indeed, the reasons and assumptions
behind individual decisions to support the struggle for progressive
unity show that the Popular Front was a reasoned and culturally
familiar response to a major political crisis.
