Interwar European fascism is inextricably associated with
anti-semitism - and, in particular, the destructive racial ideology
and policies of the Nazis. Certainly, as the period progressed,
anti-semitism did become an increasingly integral ideological
component for European fascist movements, with Italy and Britain as
distinctive examples of this phenomenon. But the main fascist
parties in both countries were founded with no anti-Jewish agenda,
before progressively incorporating anti-semitism as official
policy. Moving away from the standard Nazi paradigm, this book
explores the factors behind fascism's adoption and use of
anti-semitism, the varying forms that it took, and the ways in
which it evolved. Similarly, the exploration of the Jewish
relationship with fascism has been dominated by German, Nazi, and
Holocaust history. Yet Jews undertook a far wider range of
interactions with this political creed, ranging from membership of
fascist organizations to influential involvement in anti-fascist
movements. Through comparative examination of the Jewish
communities in interwar Britain and Italy, this book unravels some
of the complexities of Jewish attitudes towards, and experiences
of, fascism.
