The Cold War produced in many countries a form of politicalrepression and societal paranoia which often infected governmentaland civic institutions. In the West, the driving catalyst for thephenomenon was anti-communism. While much has been written on thepost-war American red scare commonly known as McCarthyism, thedomestic British response to the 'red menace' during the early ColdWar has until now received little attention. Anti-Communism inBritain During the Early Cold War is the first book to examinehow British Cold War anti-communism transpired and manifested asMcCarthyism raged across the Atlantic. Drawing from a wealth of archival material, this bookdemonstrates that while policymakers and politicians in Britainsought to differentiate their anti-communist initiatives from the'witch hunt hysteria' occurring in the United States, they wereoften keen to conduct - albeit less publicly - their own hunts aswell. Through analysing how domestic anti-communism exhibiteditself in state policies, political rhetoric, party politics andthe trade union movement, it argues that an overreaction to thecommunist threat occurred. In striking detail, this book describesa nation at war with a specific political ideology and itswillingness to use a variety of measures to disrupt or eradicateits influence.

Der Antikommunismus in der Bonner Republik war bis Anfang der 1960er Jahre eine wichtige Quelle der Identitätsstiftung. Er zielte auf die innere Konsolidierung der noch ungefestigten westdeutschen Demokratie und wirkte sich auf den Umgang der damaligen Gesellschaft mit dem nationalsozialistischen Erbe aus. Das damit einhergehende Bekenntnis zum Antitotalitarismus war zugleich Teil der neuen Staatsräson, mit der die junge Bundesrepublik ihre Zugehörigkeit zur westlichen Wertegemeinschaft demonstrierte und auf östliche Infiltrationsversuche reagierte. Der Aufsatzband setzt sich differenziert mit den verschiedenen staatlichen und gesellschaftlichen Formen des Antikommunismus auseinander. Er reflektiert diesen in gesamtdeutscher Perspektive und beleuchtet somit ein bislang wenig bekanntes Kapitel deutscher Nachkriegsgeschichte.

Social movement theory identifies factors that can predict the success or failure of social movements; however, they have left out the influence of corporate elites. American Fascism and the New Deal makes a strong case for factoring in the strength of relevant corporate elite power in the prediction of social movements.

This book examines how community remembers one of the most gruesome acts of violence in the 20th century: the anti-communist violence in 1965 in Indonesia. Through a case study in a rural district in East Java, this research presents complexities of memory culture of violence. These memories are not exclusively determined by the state’s repressive memory project, but are actually embedded in intricate social relations and local context where the violence occurred. What people remember, forget, or silenced is part of the continuous negotiation to claim one’s right, to relate to the state, and to be Indonesian citizen. This book redefines the politics of memory – that it does not necessarily appear in formal arenas, but actually lies in the intricate web of local dynamics, often involving transactional and clientelistic practices.
