	Hilaire Belloc - CatholicAuthors.com
		In 1903 Belloc became a British subject and in 1906 was returned to Parliament by the South Salford constituency.
		Belloc sat in the House of Commons from 1906 to 1910, but refused to serve a second term because, in his own words, he was "weary of the party system," and thought he could attack politics better from without Parliament than from within.
		Belloc's wife, the former Elodie Agnes Hogan of Napa, California, whom he married in 1896, died in 1914.

	Hilaire Belloc: Defender of the Faith
		Belloc frequently took pains to point out that tolerance is always of a lesser evil that cannot be vanquished at the moment, but vanquished it ought to be.
		Hilaire Belloc, spreading his many talents and his incredible energy through the essay, a respectable body of very good verse, military history, nonsense novels, biography and books of travel, studies on the road, political polemics, economic theory, concentrated it all into a center, into a synthesized focus: the apostolate of history.
		Indeed, Belloc insisted, it was the hatred for and attack on transubstantiation that formed the center of the bitterness moving the English reformers in the sixteenth century.

	What's Wrong with Distributivism? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		Belloc relates socialism and capitalism by arguing that in a collectivist state, the masses are actual slaves, and that in a "capitalist" state, they are de facto slaves.
		Belloc's chief concern about capitalism as he understood it was that it causes insecurity and insufficient provision for the mass of mankind.
		You will note that Belloc refers to a "reestablishment of a distributive state." His reference is to an earlier economic order in the high Middle Ages, which he viewed as a developed and highly workable system of private and shared ownership, nurtured in small communities where habit and custom fostered liberty.

	Zenit News Agency - The World Seen From Rome
		Belloc was a historian who did not think that history had to happen the way it did.
		Probably the great fruit of Belloc's sense of history is the fact that the events that appear on the record of history are filled with human choices and indeed human sins.
		Perhaps Belloc's most famous book was "The Servile State." He was probably wrong in seeing the corporation, not the state, as the major problem that would reduce the people to a kind of happy servitude wherein they were taken care of in exchange for allowing the state to define all the conditions of their lives.

	[minstrels] Is there any reward? -- Hillaire Belloc
		While I had mentioned, in passing, that Belloc had written more than the children's verse he is famous for, I was surprised to discover the sheer quantity and versatility of his work.
		Like most of Belloc's work, it shows a strong Christian influence, and is vaguely reminiscent of some of the metaphysical poets (particularly Herbert), but lacking the heaviness that so many of them possess, and injecting, instead, a refreshingly ironical tone.
		Belloc has, IMO, that quality that distinguishes a good poet - the ability to take a timeworn theme and write a poem that in no way sounds cliched or stale.

	Hilaire Belloc
		Hilaire Belloc was born in 1870 in a village a dozen miles from Paris a few days before the start of the Franco-Prussian war.
		In that war, Belloc lost his son, Louis; then another son, Peter, died on active service in the war of 1939-46, so Belloc would certainly have recalled the saying of Herodotus that "In pace sons bury their fathers; in war fathers bury their sons".
		Both during his lifetime and since, Belloc's refusal to tone down his views, and his contempt for the political, literary and social establishments of the day, militated against recognition of him as a major writer and thinker.

	Amazon.com: The Free Press: Books: Hillaire Belloc (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		Belloc sees the development of the press as a child of capitalism: by 1918 the establishment press in England is driven by profit instead of truth, and has incredible power to shape policy and control policy makers.
		Belloc argues that by reading many different perspectives, extreme though they may be, one can distill the real truth of the matter.
		In this point, Belloc's message is also actual: having recourse to independent or free media not dominated by plutocratic interests, in order to obtain a clearer vision about the events going on the world, complementing the information received from mainstream media or, even, giving that one such mainstream media have hidden.

	The Servile State [Free Republic]
		Though certain aspects of it are targeted towards Belloc's time, it does posess some surprising insights which are not found in the economics textbooks of today.
		If property, by which Belloc means the means of production, is restricted to a few, one may either put it into the hands of many or put it into the hands of "none," which in practice means the hands of the politicians.
		Belloc believes the problem inherent in a Capitalist society is that it generates a "proletarian" class which only aspires for employment, and an "administrative" class of owners.

	No Such Thing As A Religion Called Christianity \| Real Clear Religion \| death of the west and western culture only ...
		Hillaire Belloc in his commentary on modernism as a heresy states: "[t]here is no such thing as a religion called "Christianity" - there never has been such a religion".
		Belloc goes on to state, "[t]here is no essential doctrine such that if we can agree upon it we can agree to differ about the rest: as for instance to accept immorality but deny the Trinity.
		As Belloc states, the battle to retain our liberty is ultimately a battle which will be won or lost based upon our adherence to the Truth which rests in the Church and not in some esoteric version of christianity.

	[No title]
		Contrary to the opinion of most conservatives, the new government is not a step toward collectivism, but a solidifying of capitalism, with the sop thrown to the proletariat of social security, health laws, education laws, etc. The State has taken possession of the masses, with their approval.
		Belloc foretold the Beveridge plan, the "womb-to-tomb" plan as it has been termed.
		I hope Hilaire Belloc did not notice how John Cort, used to the slim meals of the Catholic Worker (we were feeding 1,500 a day then), reached over to my plate after every course and finished what I had left.

	Friends of Better Government - Lancaster, PA - Lancaster County
		Today, over two centuries later, we continue to work at having our democratic republic succeed - and it is work, because the tendency among too many people is to permit dictatorship to creep in.
		As Hillaire Belloc gloomily wrote, “All politics are based on the indifference of the majority”.
		The bad result of this non-participation - Belloc's 'indifference' - is that a candidate - especially a bad one - needs to convince fewer and fewer people in order to get elected.
