On 6 April 1967, at the invitation of the Socialist Students of
Austria at the University of Vienna, Theodor W. Adorno gave a
lecture which is not merely of historical interest. Against the
background of the rise of the National Democratic Party of Germany,
which had enjoyed remarkable electoral success in the first two
years after its formation in November 1964, Adorno analysed the
goals, resources and tactics of the new right-wing nationalism of
this time. Contrasting it with the 'old' fascism of the Nazis,
Adorno gave particular attention to the ways in which far-right
movements elicited enthusiastic support in sections of the West
German population, 20 years after the war had ended. Much has
changed since then, but some elements have remained the same or
resurfaced in new forms, 50 years later. Adorno's penetrating
analysis of the sources of right-wing radicalism is as relevant
today as it was five decades ago. It is a prescient message to
future generations who find themselves embroiled once again in a
struggle against a resurgent nationalism and right-wing extremism.
