This chapter looks at the decisive turn Huxley’s outlook began to take from the mid-1930s to the mid-1940s. Brought to a head by a personal crisis, Huxley found a cure in the political commitment to the British pacifist movement from 1935 onwards. The result was the integral pragmatic pacifist theory of political reform outlined in Ends and Means. It marks a fundamentally anti-capitalist re-orientation of competitive and distracted consumer mass society, and the pluto- and technocratic concentration of control in the hands of a few, towards a society practising non-violent forms of economic and social organisation based on anarchist (or Jeffersonian) principles of decentralisation, cooperative economy, workplace democracy, and ethics drawn from different forms of mystical experience.
