| Abstract | The Llano Cooperative Colony near Los Angeles (1914), a socialist utopian experiment was moved to Louisiana backwoods in 1917/18. The author feels that an inter-ethnic perspective, such as provided by New Llano, migth be increasingly important for understanding American social developments in the first half of the 20th century. A sizable minority of the fluctuating New Llano membership were so-called 'radicals' of German origin, some of them with long records of participation in workers' organizations, others sons and daughters of immigrants, disillusioned by xenophobia and the persecution of radicals and their organizations during the first "Red Scare." |
