This book examines the recent development of the far right in Britain, with a particular focus on the British National Party (BNP) the most electorally successful far right party in British history. It brings fresh perspectives to our understanding of the BNP in order to make a significant contribution to scholarly debate on the nature of far right extremism both nationally and internationally.

The book is significantly different from other literature in the field primarily because of its focus on three important yet underdeveloped themes, which are reflected in the structure of...

Anti-fascism has long been one of the most active and dynamic areas of radical protest and direct action. Yet it is an area of struggle and popular resistance that remains largely unexplored by historians, sociologists and political scientists.

Fully revised and updated from its earlier edition, this book continues to provide the definitive account of anti-fascism in Britain from its roots in the 1930s opposition to Oswald Mosley and the British Union of Fascists, to the street demonstrations and online campaigns of the twenty-first century. The author draws on an impressive range...

In comparison to British fascism, anti-fascism is uncharted territory. This book seeks to redress the balance of existing literature which tends towards a narrow focus on the protagonists of fascism rather than opponents. Anti-fascism in Britain defines anti-fascism in broad terms and offers both a comprehensive and absorbing historical overview that begins with opposition to the precursors of Oswald Mosley's British Union of Fascists in the 1920s and ends with anti-fascism in the present day.

A collection of short articles and stories that are strongly influenced by the author's short stay in Sri Lanka and his many years spent in India, well before it started to modernise. The majority are humorous - generally self-deprecating - as the author tries to cope with various situations, including those in his family life. The short stories in particular bring a more descriptive view of the interesting and diverse character of India.

Being interviewed is generally quite nerve-racking - especially if we have been unsuccessful more than once. This booklet outlines a method that has helped many to simplify and streamline the preparation of both their CV and their interview, making them more confident and comfortable. It also made sure they gave the interviewers what they really needed to know. Most ended up being successful. This approach is aimed at obtaining a role we enjoy and in which we are more likely to be successful, rather than gaining entry to boredom and/or frustration.

This book demonstrates to CEOs - and managers at all levels - that the link between people and performance not only exists but also spotlights the amazingly large amount of potential that lies untapped in the majority of organisations.

Bold but simple and essential changes to processes and leadership style can unleash that potential. By cutting through the mists of motivational theory and focusing on practical and logical approaches we can give the tools and opportunities to achieve great things - helping people get great satisfaction from producing great results.

Considerable attention has been paid to far-right parties and their leaders, Oswald Mosley, A. K. Chesterton, John Tyndall and Nick Griffin. But what about the forces that have been organised in opposition to fascism in Britain? British Fascism, the Labour Movement and the State brings together the leading historians in the field to trace the history of labour movement responses to the far-right from the 1920s to the present. It examines the rise and fall of different fascist groups in terms of wider social processes, above all the hostility of the labour movement, left-wing parties, the...

In Post-War Britain cultural interventions were a feature of fascist parties and movements, just as they were in Europe. This book makes a new major contribution to existing scholarship which begins to discuss British fascism as a cultural phenomenon. A collection of essays from leading academics, this book uncovers how a cultural struggle lay at the heart of the hegemonic projects of all varieties of British fascism. Such a cultural struggle is enacted and reflected in the text and talk, music and literature of British fascism.
