[0213] Australian League of Rights Collection

Location: Karl Schmude Special Collections Room, Dixson Library, University Library, University of New England, Armidale, NSW, 2351, Australia

Description: The Australian League of Rights is a right-wing movement based on the theory of Social Credit as espoused by the English engineer and economic theorist C. H. Douglas (1879-1952). Eventually, Douglas concluded that the main obstacle to the success of Social Credit was a world-wide Jewish conspiracy, in which Freemasons, International Finance, Communists and Nazis colluded to destroy Christian civilisation. Founded in the 1960s by the late Eric Butler (1916-2006), the ALR is still one of the more influential far right wing movements in Australia. The collection consists of magazines, pamphlets, books, audio cassettes, videos and other often elusive and ephemeral League publications.
