Abstract

Race, Discourse and Labourism argues that the commonwealth of socialism is founded upon a well-concealed history of brutality and repression. Caroline Knowles details the historical conditions of the emergence of race through Labour's dealings with Indian independence negotiations and anti-semitism in the thirties, and the effects of this on the conceptions of black citizenship, multi-racialism and black representation in labour politics.

Abstract

To Labour's first Prime Minister, Ramsay MacDonald, socialism meant not only 'satisfactory figures of death rates and ...improved houses' but also the 'mental cleanliness, the moral robustness of our people.'

How important was it for the centre-left that citizens be 'good people'? What was the relationship between socialism and psychology in the 1930's? Did Labour's technocratic, statist socialism of the 1950's and 1960's downgrade moral and mental
