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.
