The Coming Corporate State
The Coming Corporate State by Alexander Raven Thomson, published by Sanctuary Press Limited on March 25, 2019, is a concise exploration of the economic proposals put forth by the British Union of Fascists prior to World War II. This 66-page work outlines the envisioned economic infrastructure that would be established should the British Union of Fascists gain power, focusing on the transfer of ownership of large industrial and commercial organizations to a series of Corporations designed to manage various business activities.
Readers will find a detailed examination of how the proposed Corporate State aims to align economic forces with national needs, addressing the perceived chaos of the existing economic system. The text discusses the intention to dismantle the influence of vested interests and foreign financiers, asserting that such a system would prevent them from dictating government policies. The book also reflects on the realization of certain elements of the British fascist program in contemporary contexts across Europe and America, making it a relevant read for those interested in the intersections of art, politics, economics, and political ideologies.
Official synopsis Publisher
Alexander Raven Thomson outlines the (pre-WW2) British Union of Fascists economic proposals to “Democratise” Britain’s economic system. The Coming Corporate State sets out in clear and precise terms the economic infrastructure that would be put in place once the British Union of Fascists came to power. British Union would transfer ownership of all industrial and commercial organisations above a certain size to one of eighteen Corporations covering every aspect of business activity.
“The Corporate State is a means of equating economic forces to the needs of the Nation. It is designed to end the chaos and disorder of the present economic system, and replace them by an organised economy. It is designed to break the hidden dictatorship of vested interests and alien financiers who exploit present conditions for their own benefit. These powers have driven Labour Governments out of office, they dictate the policies of National Governments, but they will never control a Corporate State.”
It is interesting to note that many points of the British fascist program have actually been silently realised not only in Britain but also in Europe and America. A must read for everyone.
