The Delegation Discovering ‘Palestinianity’
The Revolution is Not Over: Sudanese Female Asylum Seekers and Refugees in Belfast
Female Sudanese asylum seekers and refugees in Belfast were instrumental in establishing a women’s collective, Anaka. The original goal was provision of a safe space where the founders could help women confronting the harshness of the asylum system alone and afraid, as they had been. The endeavour to mitigate the hard realities of a challenging system in a hostile environment led to the collective becoming an advocacy and campaigning group. The e…
Michael Goodrum and Philip Smith, Printing Terror. American Horror Comics as Cold War Commentary and Critique
In 1944 America, 41 per cent of men and 28 per cent of women read comics, plus 91 per cent of American children. By 1950, 'the comics industry generated an annual profit of almost $41 million dollars and published 50 million comics a month: everyone read comics' (pp 17-18). Resistance to the industry came from groups such as church and parental organisations that assumed children read the texts seriously. 1954 witnessed the adoption of the Comics…

Religious Women and Peacebuilding during the Northern Ireland ‘Troubles’
The focus of this essay is on the critical and various roles, still largely unrecognised, played by religious women during the conflict in Northern Ireland. Working at the margins of society rather than in the corridors of power, they made important contributions to peace-building that ranged from grass-roots activism to secret talks. As well as contributing to the crucial work of community groups, educating the young and tending to the old, reli…

The Roots of the Religious Cold War: Pre-Cold War Factors
The article is an examination of the roots of the amalgam of complex forces that informed the 'religious cold war'. It looks at the near and the more distant past. Naturally this includes consideration of the interwar years and those of the Second World War. It also means addressing divisions in Christianity that can be traced back to the end of the third century, to the official split of 1054 between Catholic and Orthodox, the impact of the Crus…
Conspiracy theory and American foreign policy
British Nuclear Culture: Official and Unofficial Narratives in the Long 20 th Century . By Jonathan Hogg
Jonathan Hogg has sought to do for British Cold War history what Paul Boyer achieved in 1985 with his cultural study of America’s nuclear age, By the Bomb’s Early Light . As Hogg notes, it was arguably Tony Shaw’s research on British Cold War cinema, published in 2001, which turned the cultural lens onto the British Cold War. Hogg’s work builds on the BJHS 2012 special issue on British nuclear culture, which offered various new perspectives. Offi…

From Bridge to Divide: East–West Relations and Christianity during the Second World War and Early Cold War
This article explores the use made of Christianity during the Second World War and the dilemmas created for the Allies by Stalin's religious record. It is particularly concerned with the way in which Christianity appeared for a while to become a bridge between East and West, with the explicit promise of continued post-war co-operation. However, in the immediate aftermath of the war, Anglo-American policies in particular switched from using Christ…
The Religious Cold War
This chapter, which examines the place of religion during the Cold War years, suggests that there were conflicting attitudes toward religion in both the United States and the Soviet Union. It explains that Protestant suspicion of the Vatican complicated U.S.–Vatican relations while church leaders within the Soviet bloc were divided between those who advocated cooperation and those who preferred resistance and active opposition. The chapter also c…

Divinely Sanctioned: The Anglo-American Cold War Alliance and the Defence of Western Civilization and Christianity, 1945–48
In the rhetoric of the Cold War, Christianity became a means of distinguishing between socialism and communism, of dramatizing and publicizing the Soviet regime as an evil power and the Cold War as a Manichean conflict and of consolidating the western alliance, the ‘special relationship’ in particular. Harry Truman's increasing tendency, and that of his administration, to view opposition to the Soviet Union from an ideological perspective is the …

Harry S. Truman's International Religious Anti-Communist Front, the Archbishop of Canterbury and the 1948 Inaugural Assembly of the World Council of Churches
Religion has not been given serious consideration in examining Harry S Truman's conduct of the Cold War, yet throughout his administration the President sought to construct an international anti-communist religious front. This article examines Truman's approach to the World Council of Churches in Formation in 1948 as a means of examining a currently contentious area in Cold War historiography, the role and significance of religion.

Ecclesiastical McCarthyism: Cold War Repression in the Church of England
The fact that Cold War culture was imbued with a religious dimension had a profound impact on the conduct of the churches. While it remains difficult to determine the extent and degree of repression that informed British domestic affairs in the absence of a study like David Caute's The Great Fear, an examination of how the Church of England treated its left-wing priests during the McCarthy era illustrates that there was a British version of McCar…
Bede and Northumbrian Chronology
The Genesis of a Cult: Cuthbert of Farne and Ecclesiastical Politics in Northumbria in the Late Seventh and Early Eighth Centuries
The episcopate of Cuthbert as bishop of Lindisfarne was a product of a time of great change in the Northumbrian Church in the late seventh century. Bede's Ecclesiastical history and Stephen's Life of Wilfrid make it clear that the expulsion of Wilfrid, bishop of York and sole bishop of the Northumbrians, in 678 ( HE v. 19; VW 24) opened up the Northumbrian diocese to large-scale ecclesiastical reorganisation. Wilfrid's vast see was divided and ne…

Christianity and Freemasonry: The Compatibility Debate Within the Church of England
Perceptions of the Church of England as a traditional stronghold of Freemasonry persist. Periodically, allegations have erupted alleging that membership of the brotherhood and of the church are incompatible.
