From our archive
Featuring contributors such as GB Shaw, EM Forster, WH Auden, JB Priestly and Kingsley Martin, selections from the New Statesman back archive dating back to 1913 can be viewed in the From our archive column
The Czech crisis and the New Statesman
Throughout the 1930s, the New Statesman upheld a principled resistance to Nazi Germany. It was therefore all the more dismaying to many readers when, in an August 1938 editorial, Kingsley Martin argued that Czechoslovakia's frontiers might have to be redrawn to enable a German minority to join the Third Reich. Martin admitted that the editorial "pursued" him for many years, even though, the following month, he denounced the betrayal of the Czechs to Hitler
Dubcek's terrible bargain
The Warsaw Pact's occupation of Czechoslovakia from 21 August 1968 shocked many in the west who had hoped that the country was developing a more market-oriented socialism acceptable to the Soviet Union. This report from Prague by Kopkind, an American correspondent on the NS, reflected the ambiguities of its aftermath. It took many months before the Kremlin was able to consolidate its rule through a new, hardline communist regime.
Youth
Moral panic about Britain’s juvenile delinquents is nothing new. Nor are suggestions of what should be done to deal with them. Even during the Second World War both the government and the general public were alarmed by what they saw as the growing problem of unruly youth. This New Statesman article argued that the answer must be much more training and education for the young, and that a reoriented national service scheme, even in peacetime, could also help.
