| | Marxist historians and political scientists (that is, those who base their approach on the writings of German political theorist Karl Marx) view fascism as a form of politics that is cynically adopted by governments to support capitalism and to prevent a socialist revolution. | | | Fascism, modern political ideology that seeks to regenerate the social, economic, and cultural life of a country by basing it on a heightened sense of national belonging or ethnic identity. | | | As a result, fascism is strongly associated with right-wing fanaticism, racism, totalitarianism, and violence. |

| | Fascism rejects the principles of class struggle and workers' internationalism as threats to national or racial unity, yet it often exploits real grievances against capitalists and landowners through ethnic scapegoating or radical-sounding conspiracy theories. | | | Fascism rejects the liberal doctrines of individual autonomy and rights, political pluralism, and representative government, yet it advocates broad popular participation in politics and may use parliamentary channels in its drive to power. | | | In practice, fascism defends capitalism against instability and the left, but also pursues an agenda that sometimes clashes with capitalist interests in significant ways. |

| | CANIS IRATUS.: Fascism for Idiots |
| | Fascism is simply totalitarian Statism - in which every aspect of society is nationalized and subject to control by State authority - with the additional notion that the State is an ultimate end in itself. | | | Fascism as a theory is as dead as Mussolini, though similar ideas survive on both the far right and the far left. | | | Fascism is pretty much the complete opposite of this, as it opposes individual liberties, individual rights, free speech, and democracy. |

| | Pound and Fascism |
| | Fascism’s attempt to reunite the socialist and the conservative strains in Western political thought may seem, on the face of it, a laudable enterprise. | | | Yet fascism, born in such promise, ended by declaring universal war on everything that was not itself: first bolshevism, then socialism, then the Jews, then the "decadent" liberal democracies. | | | As fascism summoned Italians and Germans to arm themselves in order to seize or to defend what was "rightfully" theirs, militarism and a cult of violence became not an accidental but an essential component of this movement. |

| | was terrifying to some conservative elements in European society, and fascism grew out of the attempt to counter it by forming mass parties based largely on the middle classes and the petty bourgeoisie, exploiting their fear of political domination by the lower classes. | | | In Italy, particularly, social unrest was combined with nationalist dissatisfaction over the government& failure to reap the promised fruits of victory after World War I. The action of Gabriele D& in seizing Fiume (Rijeka) was one manifestation of the discontent existing in Italy. | | | Neo-Nazi groups also exist on a small scale in the United States, and right-wing nationalistic movements and parties in countries such as France, Russia, and some republics of the former Yugoslavia have political groups with elements of fascism. |

| | The historic function of fascism is to smash the working class, destroy its organizations, and stifle political liberties when the capitalists find themselves unable to govern and dominate with the help of democratic machinery. | | | Fascism in Germany has become a real danger, as an acute expression of the helpless position of the bourgeois regime, the conservative role of the social democracy in this regime, and the accumulated powerlessness of the Communist Party to abolish it. | | | To insist that fascism is already here, or to deny the very possibility of its coming to power, amounts politically to one and the same thing. |
