The continuing interest in the history, ideas, structure and
development of fascism in Britain in the twentieth century appears
to show little sign of diminishing. This collection of essays,
first published in 1980, deals in some depth with new evidence and
interpretations of the phenomenon of British fascism and provides a
reassessment of some of the major issues that have caused
controversy, examines the diverse nature of British fascism and
suggests areas which need further research. The early essays
identify certain elements of British fascism, particularly
anti-semitism, which produced the ideology of the inter-war
organisations calling themselves 'fascist'. Stress is laid on the
British roots rather than the European influences of Italy or
Germany, and the book also considers the Imperial Fascist League, a
competitor of the British Union of Fascists in the 1930s. The
second section of the book deals with particular aspects of the
BUF. Considering its ideology and tactics, there are studies of
anti-semitism, economic thought and the public order question.
Presenting new research and fresh interpretations of existing
material, this important volume considers many of the crucial and
unanswered questions surrounding British fascism.
