Description
Oswald Mosley and British Fascism is a detailed history of the British Union of Fascists, led by the enigmatic Oswald Mosley. Mosley's journey across the English political spectrum culminated in the formation of Britain's foremost Fascist movement. This book delves into contemporary politics and English history, examining the rise of capitalism and democracy, and the impact of these systems on society. Fascism is portrayed as a spiritually "pan-European movement" that represents an economic revolt against the obsolete capitalist system and a spiritual reaction against the materialist and internationalist concepts of Marxism. The book's author, James Drennan, explores the heroic challenge of the men of his age to the "pessimism" of Spengler, an elite effort of the European civilization to overcome its prophesied twilight and create a new world. The legacy of the men described in this book will not be forgotten, and their story remains a significant and thought-provoking chapter in the history of British politics.
