  New Catholic Dictionary: Action Francaise   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Its paganistic doctrines were recognized by the Holy Office which decreed in 1914 to proscribe four works of Maurras and the "Action Francaise." Pius X approved the decree but delayed publication.
A decree of the Holy Office, 29 December 1926, condemned Maurras's works and the "Action Francaise." The one aim of the pope was the protection of moral interests involved.
The Action Francaise had disclosed its true nature as a school or cabal rather than as a mere political party, with a following mainly Catholic, dominated by atheists, and propagating a philosophy exalting politics above religion and urging a spirit of nationalistic hate and violence.

 The Harvard Crimson :: News :: Action Francaise
The Action Francaise was the most important political organization on the Right and the training ground for many Rightists who went on to found their own organizations.
When France fell, however, the Action Francaise fell with it; it was essentially parasitic, and died with its host.
For the Action Francaise was a personal movement, not a party; it was an organization built almost solely on individual passion and concern about the destruction of Western civilization at the hands of democratic decadence and communist barbarism.

 Maurice Blondel [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
Action then, reposing originally upon a ground of passivity, of being acted upon by the world and others, is a transcendence of that passivity.
Action is a sort of co-action, not simply the imposition of force externally, but a relation to what one wills to act upon and with.
The possibility of action does not lie simply in the relation of the individual to the world, but is rather already permeated by sociality, not least in so far as action is brought into reflective thought by instances of conceptualization and language, but also by a categorical exigency of intersubjectivity.

Pope Pius XI was a man of great intelligence, very intelligent, he had a great faith too and wrote some marvellous Encyclicals but unfortunately in the praxis of his government was very weak, very weak and tended to ally himself a bit with the world.
Pope Pius XI was pressurised, pressurised to condemn Action Française because Action Française which wasn't a Catholic movement but was a reaction against the chaos the Freemasons were causing in the country.

 Dr. John C. Rao: Catholicism, Liberalism and the Right: A Sketch From the 1920’s
The purpose of this article is not to argue that Catholic political theory and Catholic Action before the period of important American influence in the Church were necessarily correct and judicious.
The fascist murder was seen as a frank and logical application of principles which liberals and socialists, with their attack on objective truth and their praise of revolution, had been arguing on the theoretical level for decades already.
It would be servile to do nothing against an unjust action of this government; it was by no means vile or opportunistic to accept a powerful historical reality, with all its inconveniences—just as one accepted a less that satisfactory marriage or the Third French Republic—and seek to aim it towards the good.

 The Holocaust Chronicle PROLOGUE: Roots of the Holocaust, page 312
Action Française (French Action) was a Fascist movement that emerged in France in 1899.
At the cornerstone of the movement's political program was virulent antisemitism complemented by hatred of Freemasons, Protestants, and French residents of foreign origin.
In the minds of Action Française members, these "enemies" had forced the group to fight a titanic battle for France's nationalistic and racial integrity.

Not surprisingly perhaps, given his family's royalist political leanings, the young Ariès joined the Action française's university organization and was introduced to political journalism through the auspices of its student publication, L'Etudiant français.
What the Action française provided was a screen upon which he could project his own nostalgic vision of the ancien regime, a vision populated by extended families, diverse provincial communities, and customs preserved in popular practices and overseen by a distant and benevolent monarch.
For him, Hutton suggests, the friendships formed in his youth represented an example of the kind of sociability that flourished in traditional society but was rapidly disappearing in contemporary mass society.

Thereafter it was Maurras, the Action française, [Jacques] Bainville, Georges Sorel, and by way of them I linked myself to a long chain of French reactionaries.
Yes, in France, in the groups surrounding Action Française and Péguy, there was already a nebulous form of fascism." For Drieu, intellectual and political initiations seemed to have come less from proper bourgeois institutions of learning than from the wealth of literature and ideas fermenting in the prewar years.
Drieu La Rochelle was also disappointed by the failure of his generation to take action, and was disgusted with a post-war France that was all too identical to pre-war France.

This condemnation, and the insubordination of Action Française, were to disturb Catholic circles for some years both in and out of France to such a point that a member of the Sacred College, Cardinal Billot, relinquished his red hat.
Guénon was not in the least occupied with politics but could not avoid hearing of this affair, which seemed to him a characteristic illustration of his contemporaries’ lack of understanding, however ‘traditionalist’ they proclaimed themselves to be, of the normal relationship between religion and politics.
From the traditional point of view, the relationship between the spiritual and the temporal refers principally to that between knowledge and action, action being—in a normal civilization—hierarchically subordinate to knowledge.

 FIRST THINGS: A Journal of Religion, Culture, and Public Life   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Maritain, who was called (perhaps wrongly) the “philosopher of Action Française” during this period, embraced a strident antimodernism that carried with it, in the wake of World War I, an unmistakable anti-Germanism.
The bitterness of the Action Française controversy helped to make Maritain more open to the virtues of parliamentary democracy; it moved him away from the extreme rancor of some of his earlier antibourgeois and antiliberal diatribes.
Such is the law of the fructification of human actions which is inscribed in the nature of things and which is but the natural justice of God in history.” History, in the light of the incarnation, transcends the historical.

 Joan in Politics: Jeannette Jehanne Jeanne Joan - Shepherdess Soldier Savior Saint
The Catholic press and the newly formed, ultra-nationalist Action Française burst out venomously, condemning the school system, the state, Jews, Protestants, and Freemasons.
In response Thalamas published Jeanne d'Arc: L'Histoire et la Légend, in which he called on the "common sense and good faith" of the people of France, whom he compared to Joan.
A further series of disturbances occurred four years later when Thalamas lectured at the Sorbonne; the Camelots du Roi (the student wing of the Action Française) rioted and repeatedly assaulted both Thalamas and other Jewish lecturers.

 The Tragedy of Marcel Lefebvre
A note of caution needs to be injected into the Australian debate about the fairness or otherwise of his excommunication, for there is an "X" factor that seems always to be overlooked in discussions of Integrisme, (the French term for the doctrines of Archbishop Lefebvre); and that factor is politics.
And Lefebvre saw the rector of the Seminaire Francaise in Rome, Father Le Floch, a supporter of Action Francaise and a person whom he admired greatly, sacked because of his views.
For him, as for Maurras, this is a 'betrayal', since salvation of the world lies in a return to the pre-Vatican II and even pre-Revolutionary France 'past' — to monarchical rule.

A demographer by training, he pioneered a new route into the history of private life that eventually won him a wide readership and in late life an appointment to the faculty of the prestigious École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales.
At the same time, he fashioned himself as a man of letters in the intellectual tradition of the Action Française and became a perspicacious journalist as well as a stimulating writer of autobiographical memoirs.
In Hutton’s view, this helps explain why, more than any other historian, Philippe Ariès left his personal signature on his scholarship.
