Civilopedia entry

Fascism properly refers to the Fascist Party of Italy, though it is used more generally to refer to an ultra-nationalist form of government that embraces totalitarian control in the name of a nation and race. Fascist governments often revolve around the figure of a particular leader, and embrace military control over every aspect of political life, reinforcing this control with an ideology of racial superiority – often with a simultaneous focus on technological development and a flagrantly incorrect nostalgia for symbols and traditions of the past. Fascist movements usually arose from the petit bourgeoisie, rejecting intellectualism and a focus on workers’ rights from the left, while also rejecting the economic right’s interest in global trade. All aspects of fascist society, from factory to university, were mobilized for the nation and organized around the military. Criticism, under fascism, was tantamount to opposition to the nation.

While World War II-era Italy and Germany were the quintessential fascist states, Imperial Japan of the time had nearly all of the trappings of fascism as well (present there, and absent in Italy and Germany, was an old monarchy). Fascism’s origins can be traced to other disturbing marriages of militarism and populism, from Julius Caesar’s takeover of the Senate in the name of the people (and with the command of the army) to Napoleon’s militaristic France and Louis Napoleon’s aesthetic authoritarianism. While fascists made communism their principal target, Stalinism contains more than a small dose of fascist ideology, and fascist groups remain active today in many countries.
