It assesses how socialist networks were influenced by socialist groups outside Europe, and how they navigated domestic and global politics. Collectively, the chapters explore four main areas: the relationship between European ideals of cooperation, daily routine, and domestic politics; the shifting definitions of political elites in Europe--including African, Caribbean, and Asian influence on the transformation of European socialist thought, policies, and practices; the extent to which European socialists attempted to propose a post-colonial, post-imperial agenda for Europe; and how European institutions were used by socialists and their contacts. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Reflecting on the successes and failures of the transnational processes of socialization, the role of cultural bridge-builders, and the reasons behind missed opportunities for peace and equality, this book examines how socialist politicians and activists conceived of Europe's role in worldmaking in its transition out of conflict and empire. Through this reflection, the book contributes to a better understanding of cooperation across borders.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e M?lanie Torrent\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1915249708\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781915249708\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of London Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/20\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs","brand":"M?lanie Torrent","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46526444372223,"sku":"9781915249708","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_126cfae5-bce5-4e20-81da-8c789065d10d.jpg?v=1737556203","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/european-socialists-across-borders-mlanie-torrent-9781915249708","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
