This book examines, for the first time, the role of Britain's
Empire in far right thought between 1920 and 1980. Throughout these
turbulent decades, upheaval in the Empire, combined with declining
British world power, was frequently discussed and reflected upon in
far right publications, as were radical policies designed to
revitalise British imperialism. Drawing on the case studies of
Ireland, India, Palestine, Kenya and Rhodesia, Lost Imperium argues
that imperialism provided a frame through which ideas at the core
of far right thinking could be advocated: nationalism, racism,
conspiracy theory, antisemitism and anti-communism. The far right's
opposition to imperial decline ultimately reflected more than just
a desire to reverse the fortunes of the British Empire, it was also
a crucial means of promoting central ideological values. By
analysing far right imperial thought, we are able to understand how
they interacted with mainstream ideas of British imperialism during
the twentieth century, while also promoting their own uniquely
racist, violent and authoritarian vision of Empire. This book will
be of interest to students and scholars of British fascism, empire,
imperialism, racial and ethnic studies, and political history.

Bringing together an expert group of established and emerging
scholars, this book analyses the pervasive myth of the 'new man' in
various fascist movements and far-right regimes between 1919 and
1945. Through a series of ground-breaking case studies focusing on
countries in Europe, but with additional chapters on Argentina,
Brazil and Japan, The "New Man" in Radical Right Ideology and
Practice, 1919-45 argues that what many national forms of far-right
politics understood at the time as a so-called 'anthropological
revolution' is essential to understanding this ideology's
bio-political, often revolutionary dynamics. It explores how these
movements promoted the creation of a new, ideal human, what this
ideal looked like and what this things tell us about fascism's
emergence in the 20th century. The years after World War One saw
the rise of regimes and movements professing totalitarian aims. In
the case of revolutionary, radical-right movements, these
totalising goals extended to changing the very nature of humanity
through modern science, propaganda and conquest. At its most
extreme, one of the key aims of fascism - the most extreme
manifestation of radical right politics between the wars - was to
create a 'new man'. Naturally, this manifested itself in different
ways in varying national contexts and this volume explores these
manifestations in order to better comprehend early 20th-century
fascism both within national boundaries and in a broader,
transnational context.
