This is the tenth chapter of Varieties of Fascism as written by Professor Eugen Weber. In this chapter, Eugen Weber tackles the British Union of Fascists party headed by the infamous Oswald Mosley. In this chapter, Eugen Weber describes the origin of the BUF as a splinter of disaffected zealous socialists from the British Labor Party, and the ideologies, tactics, and outcome of the movement before and up to the Second World War.
====================================================
In 1964, the world approached the twentieth anniversary of the end of the Second World War. Eugen Weber, a Romanian born, French-educated, British Veteran, and now American professor, sat down to take in the impact of socialism, fascism, and national socialism on the 20th-century world. Having served with the British during the Second World War, Eugen Weber was no stranger to the violent upheaval these ideologies had, and indeed are having.
In the Narrator's opinion, the compilation of this work is invaluable in a current atmosphere of domestic ideological cleavings. Writing nineteen years after the Second World War, a war which Professor Weber fought in, this work has topical adjacency to the real physical manifestations of such phenomena. Additionally, written in the early sixties, the work does not suffer the estrangement and misdefinition of the terms it seeks to educate on.
