A sensitive analysis of the thought and intellectual development of
G. D. H. Cole (1889 1959) the distinguished Labour historian.
Cole's career is traced from his earliest days in the Labour
movement to his final years as Chichele Professor of Social and
Political Thought at Oxford. Professor Carpenter examines Cole's
role in the creation of Guild Socialism; his work in the early
1920s when after the decline of Guild Socialism, he turned towards
the analysis of policies, research through the New Statesman and
the New Fabian Research Bureau and teaching at Oxford; his attempts
to provide a policy for the Left in the 1930s, the idea of economic
planning and the Popular Front; his activities during the Second
World War; and his place in the debates over the Labour movement's
cause after the 1945 government. Finally Professor Carpenter
discusses Cole's courageous recognition, towards the end of his
life, that Socialism had not come and his attempts to start a new
cycle of research in one of the first efforts to create a New Left.
