Union of Democratic Control : ウィキペディア英語版 | Union of Democratic Control The Union of Democratic Control was a British pressure group formed in 1914 to press for a more responsive foreign policy. While not a pacifist organization, it was opposed to military influence in government. ==World War I==
The impetus for the formation of the UDC was the outbreak of the First World War, which its founders saw as having resulted from largely secret international understandings which were not subject to democratic overview. The principal founders were Charles P. Trevelyan, a Liberal government minister who had resigned his post in opposition to the declaration of war, and Ramsay MacDonald who resigned as Chairman of the Labour Party when it supported the government's war budget. Also taking a key role in setting up the Union were author Norman Angell and journalist E. D. Morel.〔''The Abolition of War : the ’Peace Movement’ in Britain, 1914-1919'' by Keith Robbins. Cardiff: University of Wales Press, 1976. ISBN 0-7083-0622-5 (p.38-46).〕 While non-partisan, the UDC was dominated by the left-wing of the Liberal and Labour Parties.
