From Scottsboro to Munich – Race and Political Culture in 1930s Britain
Autor Susan D. Pennybackeren Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 iul 2009
"This extraordinarily well-researched book puts notable 1930s causes and individuals into new global contexts. Pennybacker leaves no stone unturned--she examines fugitive writings, newspaper coverage, government documents, and many other sources to tell a richly detailed story of the period."--Werner Sollors, Harvard University
"From Scottsboro to Munich is an important intervention in the history of the 1930s, not only the history of Britain but of the West and the international Left. The book brings together people and campaigns that have been written about separately but never before treated as a whole."--Jeffrey Cox, University of Iowa

Descriere
Presenting a portrait of engaged, activist lives in the 1930s, this book features a global network of individuals and organizations that posed challenges to the racism and colonialism of the era. It positions race at the center of the British, imperial, and transatlantic political culture of the 1930s.
