No, ive only read his 100 questions. Would like to read his post war work though.

As for the 100 questions its more of a historical piece

>tfw only had time to read through books by radical leftist ideologies
I've only been through some of Rudolph Rocker, George Orwell, Marx, and Chomsky .

If I had more time I'd read through something like Mein Kampf or For My Legionares , but I'm already going through so much. I've read the first few chapters of Mein Kampf and thats it for far right works

Yes, which is rather ironic given he spent a good part of his life and entire reputation trying to prevent war with the continent.

I've read it. I think Mosley's writings on the division of Africa is very unrealistic and even undesirable. I think the Mosleyian approach to building up our civilisation may lie in the reunification of the commonwealth, and letting the mainland europeans grow as they may.
Nonetheless, a fantastic introduction to fascist doctrine.

How good is it at explaining the philosophical underpinnings of their views as opposed to being a statement of goals?

If I remember correctly the first half of The Alternative describes the philosophical roots of Mosley's fascism. He talks about the "Hellenic-Elizabethan" heroism of the common briton and how that lent them the empire, and he goes into how modern democracy stifles that destiny. He talks a bit about the JQ, but his second half is more about his criticisms with the British government.

tl;dr Its seems to promote a mix of NatSoc and Italian Fascism to deal with the political and spiritual crises of post-WW2.

Thanks, have you read any of his other works?
