國際君主主義聯盟
國際君主主義聯盟(英語:International Monarchist League),1990年代中期以前稱為君主主義聯盟(Monarchist League),是一個致力於維護和促進君主制政府制度和全世界君主制原則的組織。它一直積極倡導在二十世紀成為共和國的國家恢復君主制,特別是自第二次世界大戰以來。該聯盟的總部設在英國。[1]
歷史
約翰·愛德華·巴齊爾,一位科爾賓的牧師(生於科爾賓,1887-1964 年)於1943年創立了君主主義聯盟。[2]
聯盟最終發展成為一個壓力和支持的團體。在1968年慶祝其銀禧紀念時,《The Monarchist》社論說「在50年代末和60年代初,當消極和消極的君主主義轉變為積極和侵略性的君主主義時,聯盟發生了巨大的複興。」[3]
聯盟由一個「大委員會」管理,其中包括一些非英國代表。
主張
聯盟成立於1943年,當時第二次世界大戰的潮流開始轉向有利於盟軍,並且已經意識到蘇聯對巴爾幹君主制的威脅。創始人看到了霍亨索倫王朝和哈布斯堡王朝被推翻後中歐發生的事情——留下的真空被納粹主義填補。他們擔心羅馬尼亞、保加利亞、南斯拉夫和阿爾巴尼亞的王位垮台會導致東方走向東方擴大共產主義統治。聯盟的目標很簡單,就是支持君主制原則。[4]
