re: #76 ggt

It’s a form of nationalism—what does THAT mean?
is it an economic theory?
political theory?
form of government?
social theory?

Economic theory? No. Most interwar and WWII-fascism had a corporatist aspect to it, with certain similarities to socialism, but modern-day fascists are found in various economic camps. The British National Party, which has very direct historical ties to post-WWII neo-fascism is left-leaning in economics. The Vlaams Belang, which has similar, very clear historical ties, is right-leaning.

However, modern-day fascists do often object to both “international capitalism” and “socialism”; like the Utya terrorist does in his so-called manifesto (which is a cut-and-paste work, anyway).

Political theory? Oh, yes.
Form of government? Well, if they come into power.
Social theory? Oh, yes.
