The essays in this Handbook, written by an international team of
distinguished scholars, combine to explore the way in which fascism
is understood by contemporary scholarship, as well as pointing to
areas of continuing dispute and discussion.
From a focus on Italy as, chronologically at least, the 'first
Fascist nation', the contributors cover a wide range of countries,
from Nazi Germany and the comparison with Soviet Communism to
fascism in Yugoslavia and its successor states. The book also
examines the roots of fascism before 1914 and its survival, whether
in practice or in memory, after 1945. The analysis looks at both
fascist ideas and practice, and at the often uneasy relationship
between the two.
The book is not designed to provide any final answers to the
fascist problem and no quick definition emerges from its pages.
Readers will rather find there historical debate. On appropriate
occasions, the authors disagree with each other and have not been
forced into any artificial "consensus," offering readers the chance
to engage with the debates over a phenomenon that, more than any
other single factor, led humankind into the catastrophe of the
Second World War.
