Hardback. Zustand: New. This extraordinary history of the French far right, from its modern origins in the 1890s to its ebb and flow throughout the twentieth century, could not come at a timelier junction in European politics, when the hard right once again threatens to topple the pillars of democracy that have governed France since the end of World War II.In thirteen dramatic chapters, beginning with Captain Alfred Dreyfus's framing by corrupt senior army officers and conviction in a miliary court in 1894 and concluding 130 years later with the rise of Marine Le Pen and the Rassemblement national, journalist Enda O'Doherty brings characteristic insight to many of the most notorious events that comprise this fascinating but disturbing narrative.Post-Revolutionary France attracted political as well as artistic exiles-drawn to its principles of liberty and equality-who made the City of Light a beacon of international culture. But darker currents also emerged from the Revolution in the form of right-wing or counterrevolutionary forces, which despised democracy and sought to install new forms of monarchist or authoritarian power. These groups often embraced anti-Semitic or anti-Socialist themes in order to attract a wide following, resulting in episodes that form the core of The Dark Side of France-be it the 1914 assassination of socialist leader Jean Jaurès by a right-wing fanatic or the repeated attacks in 1936 on Jewish Popular Front leader and then-Prime Minister Léon Blum, who would later end up in Buchenwald. Popular support for the far right would reach its high point in the late 1930s with the Parti social français of Colonel François de La Rocque, before France succumbed to the Nazi invasion and rule by the collaborationist Vichy regime of Philippe Pétain.Despite the ignominious collapse of Vichy and the execution of the traitor Robert Brasillach following the war, the far right remained unvanquished, as demonstrated by OAS terrorist resistance to Algerian independence and the many assassination attempts on Charles de Gaulle. The political inheritors of wartime collaboration and the OAS are alive and well in today's far-right movements-Islamophobic portrayals of "parasitical" Muslims in addition to endemic anti-Semitism-as France now faces a critical period that will shape its future. As O'Doherty writes in this necessary work of history, "The struggle against prejudice and victimization of the marginalized continues today.".…

Hardback. Zustand: New. A gripping exploration of the French far right, from the Dreyfus Affair to Marine Le Pen and the National Rally, whose candidate is strongly placed to seize the leadership of France.In The Dark Side of France, Enda O'Doherty brings to life the long history of extreme nationalist, antisemitic and authoritarian politics and ideas in France through thirteen gripping episodes. Beginning with The Dreyfus Affair, which violently divided the country for more than a decade, O'Doherty charts through the outpouring of nationalist passion incited by the First World War, including the assassination of socialist leader Jean Jaurès by a right-wing fanatic. Covering the work of Action Française and its widely admired leader in the 1920s and 30s, this book highlights the immediate and longer-term implications of far-right action, such as the destruction of the elected government and targeting of Jewish socialist leader Léon Blum in 1936.O'Doherty boldly assesses some of the most notorious moments in modern French history, such as the collaboration with Nazi forces during the Second World War, the OAS terrorists' resistance of Algerian independence, and their near-miss assassination attempt on President Charles De Gaulle. The political inheritors of wartime collaboration and the OAS movement are alive and well in today's far-right movements, and after years of political turmoil, France now faces a critical period that will shape the future of the country.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. A sober endurance athlete recounts youth and alcohol addiction, rebuilding life through adventure, mental health, and teaching.Wicklow native Enda O'Doherty is an extraordinary man with an extraordinary story to share. In a story co-written with journalist Dermot Keyes, Enda takes readers through his youth and an alcohol-sodden adulthood. However, as his 40s beckoned, Enda declared to his wife, Maeve, that his drinking days were over. It was time to choose life and a sense of adventure - with a washing machine!Over a dozen years into sobriety and revelling in his new life, Enda has undergone a physical and emotional re-awakening as an endurance athlete, which has, incredibly, included carrying a washing machine from Belfast to Waterford in 2015 (covering nine marathon distances in eight days), and hauling his appliance to within a few hours of the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro in 2017, both in aid of Pieta House, the suicide prevention charity.Enda's story traces the highs and lows of a life fully lived, the debt he owes to his family, how he has positively exploited his addictive personality, and his passion for teaching, while also disclosing his own 'survival toolkit' on how to make tomorrow better than today.Fuelled by 29 years as a teacher, in addition to 6 years as a motivational speaker, this deeply personal adventure demonstrates the power of the human spirit along with Enda's efforts to promote positive mental health. Reflective, entertaining and inspiring, Enda's story is one worth reading if wringing every drop out of life is on your 'To Do' list. The extraordinary story of teacher, endurance athlete and motivational speaker Enda O'Doherty, who carried a washing machine from Belfast to Waterford in 2015 (covering nine marathon distances in eight days), and hauled his appliance up Mount Kilimanjaro in 2017, both in aid of Pieta House, the suicide prevention charity.
