Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. ![]() ![]() While at times I felt like I needed an introduction to this introduction, I still managed to glean a handful of the most important details about Fascism from Passmore's short little book. While the beginnings of the movement took place among French saltworks laborers fighting against Italian immigrants, Mussolini's rise to power in Italy between WWI and WWII marks the beginning of the movement on a grand scale. Even from that grassroots development to its advent on the world stage, Fascists, like all -isms, covered an array of beliefs and topics, but a profound and sometimes violent ultranationalism always unified the factions. Fascists desire nations with as little diversity as possible, firmly rejecting people with different ethnicities and races and religions. Some of Passmore's finer details on economics and political science were sadly lost on me, written perhaps more for students or those with backgrounds in politics that aren't Fascism. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

What is fascism? Is it revolutionary? Or, is it reactionary? This book argues that it is both: fascism unleashes violence against the left and ethnic minorities, but also condemns the bourgeoisie for its 'softness'. Kevin Passmore opens his book with a series of 'scenes from fascist life' - a secret meeting of the Romanian Iron Guard; Mussolini meeting the king of Italy; a rally of Hungarian doctors calling for restrictions on the number of Jews entering the profession; and the shooting of 1800 Jews by Reserve Police Battalion 101 at Jozefow in Poland in July 1942. He then looks at the paradoxes of fascism through its origins in the political and social crisis of the late nineteenth century, the history of fascist movements and regimes in Italy and Germany, and the fortunes of 'failed' fascist movements in Romania, Hungary and Spain. He shows how fascism used and uses propaganda and popular culture to propagate itself and how it exported its ideas outside Europe, through Nazi and Spanish post-war escape routes to Latin America, for instance. The book concludes with a discussion of the recent revival of the extreme right in Austria, Italy, France, and Russia. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
