Summary: | For more than 70 years (since about 1931) the word and the designation of 'Fascist' has been misused. Fascism was, and remains, an Italian and not a universal phenomenon - unlike national socialism which was, and remains, much more universal than we have been accustomed to think, and of which German National Socialism was but one, alarmingly powerful, manifestation. In Europe, at least between 1935 and 1945, National Socialism diminished and eventually absorbed Fascism. Throughout the world, including Russia and the United States, the relationships of nationalism and socialism explain much of the history of politics and of their movements during more than a century. |
