Description
Europe: Faith and Plan by Oswald Mosley In 1947, Oswald Mosley first proposed the idea of a unified Europe, and by the time this book was published in 1958, the first steps towards a European Economic Community had been taken. Mosley's vision for Europe involved a common policy for defence, foreign affairs, and economic policy, allowing regional governments to decide on local issues while maintaining a self-sufficient power bloc. Mosley's concept was based on creating a Europe that was not reliant on global markets, but rather one that could produce its own raw materials, energy sources, food, manufacturing capacity, and consumer market. This, he argued, would allow a United Europe to withdraw from the exploitation of cheap Third World labour and avoid the economic chaos that was already destroying major European industries. This book remains an important guide for understanding the reconstruction of European economies in the 21st century, offering a unique perspective on the economic and financial challenges facing Europe at the time.
