Fascism is inherently duplicitous, claiming one thing whilst being
committed to something else. In examining this dishonesty, it is
essential to distinguish between the surface arguments in fascist
discourse and the underlying ideological commitments. Analysing
contemporary fascism is particularly difficult, since no fascist
party admits to being fascist. Drawing on the critical insights of
historical and linguistic research, this book offers an original
and discerning approach to the critical analysis of fascism. It
demonstrates that any understanding of the continuing popularity of
fascist political ideology requires interdisciplinary analysis
which exposes the multiple layers of meanings within fascist texts
and the ways they relate to social and historic context. It is only
through contextualisation we can demonstrate that when fascists
echo concepts and arguments from mainstream political discourse
(eg: British jobs for British workers) they are not being used in
the same way.
