Book Description
Excerpt from A History of British Socialism The book which is now published under the title A History of British Socialism, Volume was intended by the author to be the first of two volumes, the second of which would carry the story of British Socialism into the opening decade of the present century. The War intervened before the second volume was ready for the Press, and Mr. Beer, like most other students, was compelled for the time being to lay his literary work on one side. The first volume, therefore, is now published separately; the next, it is hoped, will appear on the return of peace. Together they will form the most complete account of the development of Socialist thought in Great Britain which has yet appeared. The subject of the present volume is the growth of Socialism down to the rise of Chartism, and its readers must remember that there is a sequel in which the story is completed. But the period with which it deals is sufficiently distinct to be studied separately, and the book is a unity, not a mutilated fragment.

Book Description
Excerpt from British Socialism: An Examination of Its Doctrines, Policy, Aims and Practical Proposals It is exceedingly difficult to answer that question in a few words, for Socialism is exceedingly elusive and bewildering in its doctrines, its aims, and its proposals.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
A compelling look at the origins of British socialism The Making of British Socialism provides a new interpretation of the emergence of British socialism in the late nineteenth century, demonstrating that it was not a working-class movement demanding state action, but a creative campaign of political hope promoting social justice, personal transformation, and radical democracy. Mark Bevir shows that British socialists responded to the dilemmas of economics and faith against a background of diverse traditions, melding new economic theories opposed to capitalism with new theologies which argued that people were bound in divine fellowship. Bevir utilizes an impressive range of sources to illuminate a number of historical questions: Why did the British Marxists follow a Tory aristocrat who dressed in a frock coat and top hat? Did the Fabians develop a new economic theory? What was the role of Christian theology and idealist philosophy in shaping socialist ideas? He explores debates about capitalism, revolution, the simple life, sexual relations, and utopian communities. He gives detailed accounts of the Marxists, Fabians, and ethical socialists, including famous authors such as William Morris and George Bernard Shaw. And he locates these socialists among a wide cast of colorful characters, including Karl Marx, Henry Thoreau, Leo Tolstoy, and Oscar Wilde. By showing how socialism combined established traditions and new ideas in order to respond to the changing world of the late nineteenth century, The Making of British Socialism turns aside long-held assumptions about the origins of a major movement.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Bolshevik Revolution: Its Rise and Meaning The memorable uprising of the Russian people indicates that not even the keenest discernment can always accurately appraise the immediate course of events dependent upon the action of the working class. There were but few among Socialists in Western and Middle Europe who held the belief that the War would lead to working-class control in Russia, and the conse quent removal of the gravest menace to a democratised Germany. Wide difference in conditions notwith standing, the intensification of work, never to be assuaged by proposals for industrial harmony between Capital and Labour, may lead to action here as unexpected as the events that mark the recent history of Russia. Though the members of the British Socialist Party were among the first to welcome the March Revolu tion they were not without misgiving as to the practical worth of the Provisional Government. The Revolution had been made in the name of the solidarity of the working classes and in order that the power of the possessors of land and capital might be abridged in the interests of the common people. The British Socialist Party was, Ibelieve, the first of European Socialist organisations to see that the predecessors of the Bolsheviks had no intention of erecting a social organisation based on the truths that Labour is the source of all economic values and that enduring peace will only be obtained by the international agreement of peeples. In our Party organ The Call, we urgedthat the taking of power by the Soviets was the one course that would save Russia from destruction at the hands of her enemies, within and without; the ultimate acceptance of that view and the administrative success of the Soviets prove the wisdom of that policy. With the general policy of the Bolsheviks the British Socialist Party is in hearty agreement. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
