In Place of Fear

Book • 1952
First published in 1952, 'In Place of Fear' is a collection of essays and chapters addressing key political and social issues faced by the Labour movement in post-war Britain.

The book articulates Bevan's democratic socialist philosophy, emphasizing collective action, social welfare, and the importance of a free National Health Service.

It reflects on topics such as public spending, health care, unemployment, and the transition to socialism, many of which remain relevant today.

The work is both a political testament and a call to overcome fear and division through solidarity and social justice.
