	Popular front - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A popular front is a broad coalition of different political groupings, often made up of leftists and centrists who are united by opposition to another group (most often fascist or far-right groups).
		The term "national front", similar in name but describing a different form of ruling, using obstensibly non-Communist parties which were in fact controlled by and subservient to the Communist party as part of a "coalition", was used in Central and Eastern Europe during the Cold War.
		In the United States, Joseph Stalin used the concept of the Popular Front to solidify control of the Communist Party of the United States (CPUSA) and to suppress criticism from those in the radical left after the Moscow show trials and subsequent series of executions and assassinations.

		The front porch, the perfect marriage of inside living space and outdoor relaxation, is experiencing a revival in the South.

		Today the front porch is experiencing a slow revival as upscale homeowners, builders and architects join the ranks of those redesigning the front of the home as an extra space for relaxing and entertaining.

	Popular Front politics (by L. Proyect)
		Put in a nutshell, the Popular Front without an orientation toward FDR would have been based on a Labor Party rather than the Democratic Party, the party of the bosses.
		Even though Roosevelt had wide-spread popularity in the ranks of labor, there was also a strong desire to create a class-based party, especially after FDR had come out with his "plague on both your houses" comments after the cops had murdered strikers during the "Little Steel" strike.
		Leaving aside the electoral aspect, the main requirement in building something like the Popular Front is being able to communicate to the American people in the language of their everyday lives, as Browder stressed.

	France: Popular front opens the door to fascist reaction
		This is the history of a century of popular frontism, from Millerand at the beginning of the 1900s to Mitterrand and Jospin at the end.

	Popular Front - Critique of Spartacism
		Indeed, the classical examples of popular fronts and their consequences are dealt with at length in the writings of Leon Trotsky from the 1930s, regarding particularly France and Spain in 1936 and later.
		The popular front suppressed the workers revolution in favour of 'democratic' capitalism, in a situation where the whole of the capitalist class supported fascism and the need to smash the workers organisations.
		Given the dominance of Popular Frontism of one sort or another in many countries where the Spartacists were seeking to establish toeholds internationally in the 1970s, this position had an enormous influence on the development of the Spartacists, who confronted it at every step, and therefore their political deviation became more and more systematised.

	Bloggers4Labour: New Generation Network vs. the Popular Front (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Tom F posted about "left-wing individualism", by contrast "popular fronts" measure their scale by the number of parties and their size - or the number/range of faith-based communities - who have been brought inside the tent, as if that implies that all the individual members have given their approval.
		I guess the pros/cons of "popular fronts" [PF] are also similar to those of governments with huge majorities: "good" things that weren't possible before can now pass, smaller parties no longer get a look in, whether they're in sympathy with the aim of the PF but opposed to its methods, or opposed to those aims.
		Maybe definitions differ, but for me a popular front means an alliance of the main leftwing or centre left parties in a country to fight a shared enemy, preferably in the 1930s!
