  New Left - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The "New Left" was an intellectually driven movement which attempted to correct the perceived errors of "Old Left" parties in the post-WWII period.
The New Left opposed the prevailing authority structures in society, which it termed "The Establishment," and those who rejected this authority became known as "anti-Establishment." The New Left avoided recruiting industrial workers, and concentrated on a social activist approach to organizing.
Loosely associated with the New Left was the Berkeley Free Speech Movement which began in 1964 as a coalition of student groups opposing restrictions to leftist political activity on campus.

First, there was the Reasoner and the New Reasoner generation which represented a roll-call of well-known ex-Communists who had either left the Party or been expelled from it in 1956.
The new NLR was beating a new style among left journals from which the `Old Board' was brusquely excluded, and the editors of the SR were therefore losing their political home.
The New Reasoner bore the subtitle `A quarterly journal of socialist humanism', and Edward had emphasized socialist humanism in his 20 page `Where are we Now?' memo to the NLR Board in April 1963.

 Reasoner sent to Hamilton
When the Oilers hit the ice in the morning, Reasoner's equipment and a bundle of sticks were sitting in the hall outside the dressing room and he was perched on a nearby equipment trunk making calls to family and friends.
Reasoner, 25, was taken off the roster before Sunday's 1-1 tie with the Blackhawks in Chicago to open this six-game road trip because the Oilers needed to make room for Ales Pisa, who was activated because Eric Brewer is out with a sprained shoulder.
Reasoner had been the only player on the roster who didn't need to clear waivers to be sent to Hamilton.

They did this in new ways, and had no patience for old routines, precisely because their material circumstances were such that they carried little of the baggage their metaphorical parents had been hoisting on their backs for so long.
By the mid-1960s the reasoning rebels had, for the most part, been marginalized in the evolving New Left, which never quite became the social movement that would hold the passes between the revolutionaries of 1956 and the new post-Stalin youth of the 1960s that Thompson had, in 1959, envisioned.
New Left Clubs, which had gone up with such a bang in 1958–1959, never managed to negotiate their way out of a dilemma that saw their strength and resiliency simultaneously rooted in local concerns and initiatives, but dependent on the sustaining continuity provided by a national centre.

 The New Left and May 1968   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
At the outset, the New Left was in self-conscious reaction to "Stalinism" and was dominated by the theme of "socialist humanism".
New Left Review was born, by caesarean section, and with it the New New Left.
The Old New Left never really came to terms with the way in which it had been dispossessed and thrust aside, and took shelter in a new publication, the Socialist Register, from which it launched the odd broadside against its usurpers before settling down into a comfortable routine of its own.

New Left Review, under the editorship of Stuart Hall, led a rather chequered existence from 1959 to 1963, when it was taken over by Perry Anderson.
The political path which NLR would follow under its new editors was not clear; and John Saville and I decided that a different publication was needed, which would embody the spirit which had informed The New Reasoner.
Paul Cammack wrote on 'Statism, New Institutionalism, and Marxism'; and Linda Gordon had an essay on 'The Welfare State: Towards a Socialist-Feminist Perspective' in which she analysed the weaknesses in the Left's necessary defence of the welfare state.

 On the Evolution and Character of the New Left and New Right   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The New Left began to evolve in Britain in the mid-Fifties as a rejection to both Soviet communism, that bureaucratic tyranny, and the cautious, compromising practical socialism of the British Labour Party.
The British New Left journals New Reasoner and Universities (later to combine in the New Left Review) inspired their American counterparts Studies on the New Left and New University Thought at the universities of Wisconsin in 1959 and Chicago in 1960, respectively.
The New Left was also full of people who made the exclusive claim to the answers to society's ills, causing much of its leadership to be completely closed off to democratic compromises of any sort with other groups.

 New Reasoner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Thompson and Saville's Reasoner, the editors attempted to rekindle the embers of the dying opposition to Stalinism.
The New Reasoner was created with the express purpose of contributing to "the re-discovery of our traditions, the affirmation of socialist values, and the undogmatic perception of social reality".
In 1960 the New Reasoner became New Left Review, after a merger.

 Peter Sedgwick: The Two New Lefts (1964)
The confederate New Left fell apart in the autumn of 1961; the explosion was characteristically muffled.
From its beginning, the New Left has been concerned to define its limits, and to achieve the maximum intellectual density within those limits; its sponsors possess a unitary and homogeneous political culture, which they have maintained editorially without sentiment or mercy, preferring the risks of exclusiveness to the flaccid hospitality of their forerunners.
The protestations of New Left writers in favour of ‘workers’ control’ rest upon a suspect distinction between the control of wages and the control of conditions, the former being hived off for statized determination, the latter being left for the shop-stewards to practise in ‘encroachment’ at factory level.

 Bert Cochran, "New Horizons for European Socialism"
The New Reasoner group was less attuned to immediate cultural changes in Britain and more steeped in the traditions of both international Marxism and of the labour movement, including the native British radical tradition.
While he regarded the New Reasoner as a ‘much more solid journal’, and while in his own ‘experience and style’ (not to mention age) he located himself within the older generation, he found himself drawn to the interests of the younger generation, their preoccupation with a changing cultural experience.
More significantly, he concluded that the New Left and especially the younger generation, in its preoccupation with all that had changed in Britain with the advent of consumer capitalism, seriously underestimated all that had remained the same, miscalculating the power of the capitalist state and overestimating the possibilities of cultural politics.

The organization that came to embody the New Left was the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS).
The SDS became a leading organization of the antiwar movement on college campuses during the Vietnam War.
During the late 1960s, the SDS began to split under the strain of internal dissension and increasing penetration by Maoist ideologues, and some extremist splinter factions emerged, such as the Weather Underground and the Progressive Labor Party.

 A Brief History of New Left Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The decline of CND by late 1961, however, deprived the New Left of much of its momentum as a movement, and uncertainties and divisions within the Board of the journal led to the transfer of the Review to a younger and less experienced group in 1962.
With the dispersal of the New Left movement as such, NLR retrenched as a theoretical journal whose intellectual orientation was on the whole more geared to the emerging preoccupations of Continental theory.
The period from 1980 to 1984 was dominated by the editorial priority given to the agenda of the peace movement—the increasing dangers of the arms race and the new recklessness of the United States and Britain.

With the current reasoners this is an expensive operation, involving the temporary creation of an entire new model with the additional posits added and all inference has to start again from scratch.

He began to reason, he was to claim, only in his 33rd year, the date of the founding of the New Reasoner, the organ which gave English voice to the `socialist humanism' which Thompson describes in The Poverty of Theory as arising `simultaneously in a hundred places, and on ten thousand lips' in Eastern Europe.
There is rather more reason in the complaints of his critics against the assimilative effects of a resistance to Continental `imports' which tended to present Sartre and Althusser, Lacan and Marcuse as all coming from the same warehouse, through the exclusive agency of the New Left Review.
There can be no poorer reason for refusing the continuous engagement with Thompson's argument than that `postmodern' glibness which `knows' that it is passe without having read a line of his writing.

Arguably the most important founder of "the new social history," he was a transformative influence on and an inspiration for a generation of historians.
It is also much like Thompson to see marxism in a continuity with previous traditions of political and economic criticism, not as a leap into science but as an addition of insight and grasp of new historical conditions to critical perspectives already adequate in many ways to their original historical contexts.
The treatment of Reason as binding, constraining, or corrupting life is one of Thompson's four main evidences for the affinity (and possibly very direct connection) between Blake and the Muggletonians.

Greenald and her husband joined the Communist Party in the first half of 1956, only to leave after six weeks as news of Khrushchev's revelations to the 20th congress of the Soviet Communist Party, about the Stalinist era, seeped out.
Thereafter, they were involved in the three duplicated issues of the Reasoner, edited by Edward Thompson and John Saville, and its outstanding continuation as the New Reasoner; Joe served as treasurer and Dorothy handled the bulk sales to bookshops and universities.
The New Reasoner and the Universities and Left Review merged in 1960 to become the New Left Review, and, in these years, Greenald came to know its leading figures.

During the crisis within the CPGB, John Saville and Edward Palmer Thompson created a journal of dissident Communism named the Reasoner, taking their title form an early 19th century publication.
With their departure, the CPGB was to lose almost all of its members who could lay claim to middle class standing; many of those who would leave the Party in this period were Professors, Teachers, and Doctors.

Reasoning was disliked by the leadership of the Party and the editors were suspended from membership.
In plain words, the New Left will not make any organised intervention in the struggle between left and right in the working class movement and therefore not in the class struggle day to day, because that inevitably involves a struggle with 'the bureaucracies' too.
It followed that 'exterminism' (as Thompson named this new system) could not be combated, as Lenin and Trotsky had argued imperialist wars should be fought, through class struggle, but through building broad alliances which transcended class.
