The first fascist movements appeared in Italy during World War I before spreading to other European countries. Against liberalism, Marxism and anarchism, fascism is on the far right in the traditional left-right spectrum. The Nazis saw World War I as a revolution that brought huge changes to the nature of war, society, the state and technology. The onset of all-out war and the total mass mobilization of society have broken the distinction between civilians and combatants. There was a military citizenship in which all citizens in one form or another participated in military operations during the war. The war has led to the emergence of a powerful state capable of mobilizing millions of people to serve on the front lines and provide economic production and logistical support to support them, as well as having unprecedented power to interfere in the lives of citizens. The Fascists believe that liberal democracy is outdated and believe that full mobilization of society under a totalitarian one-state is necessary to prepare the nation for armed conflict and to respond effectively to economic difficulties. Such a state is led by a strong leader, such as a dictator and a military government made up of members of the ruling fascist party, to forge national unity and maintain a stable and orderly society. Fascism rejects claims that violence is automatically negative in nature and sees political violence, war and imperialism as a means of achieving national rejuvenation. The Fascists advocate a mixed economy, with the main aim of achieving autarca (national economic self-sufficiency) through protectionist and interventionist economic policies. After the end of World War II in 1945, few parties openly described themselves as fascist, and instead the term is now commonly used by pejorative political opponents. Neo-fascist or post-fascist descriptions are sometimes used more formally to describe far-right parties with ideologies similar or rooted in the fascist movements of the 20th century.

This was the name given to political organizations in Italy, known as fasci, groups similar to guilds or syndicates. According to the Italian fascist dictator Benito Mussolini's own account, The Fascist Action was founded in Italy in 1915. In 1919, Mussolini founded the Italian fasces of Combat in Milan, which became the National Fascist Party two years later. The fascists came to associate the term with ancient Roman fasces or fascio littorio -beam of rods tied around the axe,17 the ancient Roman symbol of the authority of the civil magistrate carried his lictors, which could be used for bodily and death execution on his command. The symbolism of the fascia assumed strength through unity: one rod breaks easily, while the beam is difficult to break. Such symbols were developed by various fascist movements: for example, the symbol of Phalanx is five arrows connected by a needle. Definitions Main article: Definitions of fascism Historians, political scientists and other scholars have long discussed the exact nature of fascism. Each group, described as fascist, has at least some unique elements, and many definitions of fascism have been criticized as too broad or narrow. According to many scholars, fascism, especially in power, has historically attacked communism, conservatism and parliamentary liberalism, attracting the support of the far right in the first place. One common definition of the term, often cited by reliable sources as a standard definition, is the definition of historian Stanley G. Payne. It focuses on three concepts: fascist denials: anti-liberalism, anti-communism and anti-conservatism; fascist goals: the creation of a nationalist dictatorship to regulate the economic structure and transform social relations into a modern, self-defined culture and the transformation of the nation into an empire; and fascist style: political aesthetics of romantic symbolism, mass mobilization, positive view of violence and propaganda of masculinity, youth and charismatic authoritarian leadership. [27] [28] Professor Jason Stanley in his book How Fascism Works: Politics Politics and they, noticed that the leader suggests that only he can solve it, and all his political opponents are enemies or traitors. Stanley says recent global events, including the pandemic and protests, have confirmed his concern about how fascist rhetoric manifests itself in politics and politics around the world. Historian John Lukacs argues that there is no such thing as general fascism. He argues that Nazism and communism are essentially manifestations of populism and that states such as Nazi Germany and fascist Italy are different from similar ones. Roger Griffin describes fascism as a kind of political ideology whose mythical core in its various permutations is the paleenetic form of populist ultra-nationalism. Griffin describes ideology as having three main components: (i) the myth of rebirth, (ii) populist ultranationalism and (iii) the myth of decadence. According to Griffin, fascism is a genuinely revolutionary, trans-class form of anti-liberal, and ultimately anti-liberal nationalism, built on a complex range of theoretical and cultural influences. He singles out an interwar period in which he manifested himself in the elite but populist politics of an armed party opposing socialism and liberalism and promising radical policies to save the nation from decadence.

  • Shirt Movements in Interwar Europe: a Totalitarian Fashion
    Ler História | 72 | 2018 | pp. 151-173 SHIRT MOVEMENTS IN INTERWAR EUROPE: A TOTALITARIAN FASHION Juan Francisco Fuentes 151 Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain [email protected] The article deals with a typical phenomenon of the interwar period: the proliferation of socio-political movements expressing their “mood” and identity via a paramilitary uniform mainly composed of a coloured shirt. The analysis of 34 European shirt movements reveals some common features in terms of colour, ideology and chronology. Most of them were consistent with the logic and imagery of interwar totalitarianisms, which emerged as an alleged alternative to the decaying bourgeois society and its main political creation: the Parliamentary system. Unlike liBeral pluralism and its institutional expression, shirt move- ments embody the idea of a homogeneous community, based on a racial, social or cultural identity, and defend the streets, not the Ballot Boxes, as a new source of legitimacy. They perfectly mirror the overwhelming presence of the “brutalization of politics” (Mosse) and “senso-propaganda” (Chakhotin) in interwar Europe. Keywords: fascism, Nazism, totalitarianism, shirt movements, interwar period. Resumo (PT) no final do artigo. Résumé (FR) en fin d’article. “Of all items of clothing, shirts are the most important from a politi- cal point of view”, Eugenio Xammar, Berlin correspondent of the Spanish newspaper Ahora, wrote in 1932 (2005b, 74). The ability of the body and clothing to sublimate, to conceal or to express the intentions of a political actor was by no means a discovery of interwar totalitarianisms. Antoine de Baecque studied the political dimension of the body as metaphor in eighteenth-century France, paying special attention to the three specific func- tions that it played in the transition from the Ancien Régime to revolutionary France: embodying the state, narrating history and peopling ceremonies.

By invoking the looming presence of a graver, more insidious threat the rhetoric of the lesser evil legitimizes fascist violence against dissidents and vulnerable populations. Through an analysis of texts by fascist philosopher Giovanni Gentile and his Brazilian counterpart Miguel Reale, I reveal that the rhetoric of the lesser evil is a constitutive part of fascist discourse and that in Italy and Brazil this aspect of fascist doctrine met a favorable combination of subjective and objective conditions which has allowed it to thrive within democratic structures.

The Buddha lived and taught in the northeastern Indian subcontinent some time between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE.[2] He is recognized by adherents as an awakened teacher who shared his insights to help sentient beings end suffering (or dukkha), achieve nirvana, and escape what is seen as a cycle of suffering and rebirth. Two major branches of Buddhism are recognized: Theravada ("The School of the Elders") and Mahayana ("The Great Vehicle"). Theravada—the oldest surviving branch—has a widespread following in Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia, and Mahayana is found throughout East Asia and includes the traditions of Pure Land, Zen, Nichiren Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism, Shingon, Tendai and Shinnyo-en. In some classifications Vajrayana, a subcategory of Mahayana, is recognized as a third branch.

  • The Survivor's Hunt for Nazi Fugitives in Brazil: The
    THE SURVIVOR’S HUNT FOR NAZI FUGITIVES IN BRAZIL: THE CASES OF FRANZ STANGL AND GUSTAV WAGNER IN THE CONTEXT OF INTERNATIONAL JUSTICE by Kyle Leland McLain A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Charlotte 2016 Approved by: ______________________________ Dr. Heather Perry ______________________________ Dr. Jürgen Buchenau ______________________________ Dr. John Cox ii ©2016 Kyle Leland McLain ALL RIGHTS RESERVED iii ABSTRACT KYLE LELAND MCLAIN. The survivor’s hunt for Nazi fugitives in Brazil: the cases of Franz Stangl and Gustav Wagner in the context of international justice (Under the direction of DR. HEATHER PERRY) On April 23, 1978, Brazilian authorities arrested Gustav Wagner, a former Nazi internationally wanted for his crimes committed during the Holocaust. Despite a confirming witness and petitions from West Germany, Israel, Poland and Austria, the Brazilian Supreme Court blocked Wagner’s extradition and released him in 1979. Earlier in 1967, Brazil extradited Wagner’s former commanding officer, Franz Stangl, who stood trial in West Germany, was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment. These two particular cases present a paradox in the international hunt to bring Nazi war criminals to justice. They both had almost identical experiences during the war and their escape, yet opposite outcomes once arrested. Trials against war criminals, particularly in West Germany, yielded some successes, but many resulted in acquittals or light sentences. Some Jewish survivors sought extrajudicial means to see that Holocaust perpetrators received their due justice. Some resorted to violence, such as vigilante justice carried out by “Jewish vengeance squads.” In other cases, private survivor and Jewish organizations collaborated to acquire information, lobby diplomatic representatives and draw public attention to the fact that many Nazi war criminals were still at large.

Introducing different and even contrary theories and viewpoints, the present book attempts to scientifically examine this important phenomenon of the 20th century. In the introduction, the editor explains how he has chosen the articles and their logical arrangement in the book. The existence of sympathetic and opposed positions on the Islamic Republic government and the employing of a descriptive language in investigating the realities of Iran make the book more attractive.
